Cautions:
To prevent the cabinet from warping
or discoloring, do not place the
subwoofer in a place where it is
exposed to direct sunlight or excessive
humidity.
Do not place the subwoofer where it
might be knocked over or exposed to
falling objects.
The metal control panel on the back
of the PRO-SW220P acts as the heat
sink for the subwoofer’s internal
amplifier. Therefore, place the unit at
least 4 inches (10 cm) away from a
wall, and do not let anything come
into contact with this panel.
Where and how you position your
subwoofer greatly affects its bass response.
Adjusting the subwoofer’s volume control
in relation to the left and right speakers
and adjusting the subwoofer’s high cut
filter also affects your speakers’ overall
sound.
Although low frequencies are non-
directional, factors such as room
reflections, standing waves, resonance,
and absorption strongly affect your
subwoofer’s performance. For maximum
bass output, place your subwoofer in a
corner. To reduce output, move it away
from corners and back walls. Even slightly
moving the subwoofer can have a major
effect on bass response.
We recommend that you test the
subwoofer in different locations to
determine where the best balance is
between your satellite speakers (if used)
and subwoofer. We also recommend that
you place the PRO-SW220P at least 4
inches away from the wall, and at least 2–3
feet away from your television or
computer’s disk drive system so the
subwoofer’s magnet will not distort the
colors of your TV picture or erase your
floppy disks.

You can connect your PRO-SW220P to an
amplifier/receiver’s subwoofer out or pre
out jacks or speaker terminals.
Note: You can connect your PRO-
SW220P to your TV if it has variable line
out jacks.
Caution: To avoid any damage to the
subwoofer or amplifier, disconnect power
from your components before making any
connections.
