Connect either an RCA, XLR or TRS from your designated LFE channel or buss output assignment to either the left or
right input on the S-00 “INPUT SECTION”. If more subwoofer sensitivity is required, use a “Y” adaptor and connect to
both left and right inputs. Be sure to utilize surround test tone signals to properly balance the woofer level with the other
monitor channels. Please read through the Subwoofer Placement and User Controls sections before you begin.
Connect the left and right outputs from your mixer or source unit to either the XLR, TRS or RCA jacks on the “INPUT
SECTION” of the S-00. Now connect the supplied left and right TRS cables from the “TO SATELLITE” output jacks
on the S-00 to your satellite monitors' input jacks. You may also want to connect a foot switch (or any standard 1/4”, 2-
position switch) into the BYPASS input on the rear of the S-00. Using this feature is not necessary to the basic operation
of the S-00.
This switch affects the input sensitivity of all three sets (XLR, TRS and RCA) of input jacks. When satellites are
connected to the S-00, the subwoofer takes over as the master sensitivity control for the system.
IMPORTANT: Set the satellite speakers you're using to the +4 setting. Set the sensitivity on the S-00 to the
appropriate setting for your source equipment.
If you are using Vergence M-00 monitors as satellites, set the HP FREQ to the 120Hz setting. If you use a different brand
of powered satellites try setting the switch to 120 Hz when the satellite woofer size is 5” or
smaller and 95Hz if larger than 5”.
The level you select will depend largely on placement. We suggest you start with this control in the 12 o'clock position.
Move the control in a clockwise direction to increase bass output and counterclockwise to decrease it. Adjust the level so
that the S-00 seamlessly integrates with the satellites, ie. you can tell it's operating but can't “hear” it as a separate entity.
Getting this setting right may take a little time. Using a variety of demo material you are very familiar with, start with the
control in the 12 o'clock position. If the bass sounds too “punchy”, turn the control counter clockwise towards 70Hz. If
the bass sounds thin, turn the control clockwise towards 110Hz.
Use of this control is entirely optional. NOTE: The Satellite Output is also muted when the subwoofer goes into the
standby mode.
Warning: The S-00 was designed to be connected to powered satellites only, do not attempt to connect
passive satellite monitors to the S-00.
Tech Tip: The XLR and TRS input jacks are wired in parallel. This allows you to patch the unused balanced
input into another device like a DAT machine or additional monitor system. You can also daisy chain multiple
subwoofer/satellite systems for fixed installations.
