Optimal subwoofer placement is crucial for sound quality. Experiment with different locations in your room to find the best balance of bass response. Generally, placing the subwoofer in a corner can enhance bass output, while placing it closer to your main speakers can improve integration. Avoid placing it directly against a wall if it causes excessive booming.

The PSW10 offers flexible connection options:

  • Line-Level Input (RCA): Connect your receiver's subwoofer output (LFE or Sub Out) to the LFE input on the subwoofer using an RCA cable. If your receiver has left and right pre-out jacks, use both left and right line-level inputs on the subwoofer.
  • Speaker-Level Inputs/Outputs: For receivers without a dedicated subwoofer output, connect the speaker-level outputs from your receiver to the speaker-level inputs on the subwoofer. Then, connect the speaker-level outputs from the subwoofer to your main left and right speakers.

  • נידעריק-פּאַס פילטער: This control sets the upper frequency limit for the subwoofer. Adjust it to match the low-frequency capabilities of your main speakers. A common starting point is 80 Hz.
  • Phase Toggle Switch (0°/180°): Adjust this switch to achieve the best bass impact and blend with your main speakers. Listen to music or a movie scene with strong bass and switch between 0° and 180° to determine which setting provides the most coherent and impactful bass.
  • 3-Way Power Switch (Auto/On/Off):
    • אַוטאָ: The subwoofer will automatically turn on when it detects an audio signal and enter standby mode after a period of inactivity.
    • אויף: The subwoofer remains continuously powered on.
