Subwoofer-Level Control:Volume
may be adjusted using the Subwoofer-Level
Control.Turn the control clockwise to increase
the SUB-TS11’s volume, or counterclockwise to
decrease it.
1
High-Cut (Low-Pass) Filter Switch: Plac-
ing this switch in the
ON
position activates cir-
cuitry that cuts out all audio input signals above
120Hz.This allows the SUB-TS11 to focus its
power on reproducing the low-frequency portion
of the signal, avoiding inefficiency and distor-
tion. Engage this filter when using the Speaker-
Level Inputs
7
, or when using the Line-
Level Full-Range Inputs
5
, unless your
receiver or processor processes its line-level out-
put using a low-pass filter.The filter has no
effect when the Sub Input
4
is used.

Music-Sense On/Off Switch: When
placed in the
AUTO
position, and when the
Master Power Switch
8
is turned on, the
SUB-TS11 will automatically turn itself on or
place itself in the Standby mode, depending on
whether it is receiving an audio signal.When
this switch is placed in the
ON
position, the
SUB-TS11 will remain on, whether or not it is
receiving an audio signal.
An LED located on top of the SUB-TS11 indi-
cates whether the SUB-TS11 is in the On or
standby state when used with the Music-Sense
On/Off Switch
2
in the
AUTO
position.The
LED is lit blue to indicate that the SUB-TS11 is
receiving an audio signal and is turned on, and
the LED is lit amber to indicate that no signal is
being received and the SUB-TS11 is in Standby
mode.
When the Music-Sense On/Off Switch
2
is
in the
ON
position, the LED will be lit blue,
whether or not an audio signal is present.
When the Master Power Switch
8
is turned
off, the LED goes dark, no matter which position
the Music-Sense On/Off Switch
2
is in.
3
Phase Switch: This switch determines
whether the SUB-TS11 subwoofer’s piston-like
action moves in and out in phase with the main
speakers. If the speakers were to play out of
phase, the sound waves produced by the sub-
woofer would be cancelled out, reducing bass
response.This phenomenon depends in part on
the relative placement of the speakers in the
room. In most cases, the Phase Switch
3
should be left in the
NORMAL
position. How-
ever, it does no harm to experiment with the
Phase Switch
3
, and you may leave it in the
position that maximizes bass response.
