Connecting the subwoofer
Press down the tab to open the terminal and

Positioning the subwoofer
A subwoofer is designed to reproduce
powerful low bass effects (explosions, the
rumble of spaceships, etc.).
It can be placed either vertically or horizontally.
For best effects, allow at least two inches of
clear space over the speaker driver and the
port hole.
Use of Rubber Pads
Attach the included rubber pads to the
subwoofer to avoid mechanical vibration
noise, especially when placing the subwoofer
on a hard surface. Attached the rubber pads
to the corners of the subwoofer for maximum
stability.
Other connection options
There are several ways in which you can
incorporate your unit into an Audio-Video
system. This depends on the sockets and
other appliances you have. Sound and image
quality depend to a large extent on the types
of connections used.
