5.2 Adjusting Controls (SMP800)

The SMP800 amplifier features several controls to optimize subwoofer performance:

  • Volume/Gain: Adjusts the overall output level of the subwoofer. Start with a low setting and gradually increase until the bass blends well with your main speakers.
  • קראָססאָווער אָפטקייַט: This control determines the highest frequency the subwoofer will reproduce. Set it to blend seamlessly with your main speakers. A common starting point is 80Hz-100Hz, but adjust based on your main speakers' low-frequency capabilities.
  • פאַסע קאָנטראָל: Adjusts the phase of the subwoofer output (0° or 180°). Experiment with both settings to find the one that provides the most impactful and coherent bass response in your listening position.
