Quick Start
Setting up your sub88 Active Subwoofer is a simple procedure,
which takes only a few minutes: The following section is an
explanation to get your Resolv 2.1, sub-satellite monitor system
running. The example assumes that you are using an active sat-
ellite speaker like a Resolv 50a.
• Remove all packing materials (save them in case of need for
future service) and decide where the unit is to be physically
placed.
• Make sure the power to your mixers powered satellite moni
-
tors and other equipment in your audio system is off. Locate
the sub88’s Power switch on the rear panel and place the to
its off position.
• Connect your mixer’s left and right output to the left and
right AUDIO INPUTS on the sub88 rear panel.
Note: It is always recommended to use balanced cables when ever
possible. For a detailed wiring diagram see page 16 in this manual.
• Now, connect the sub88’s left Audio Output to the input of
the left side satellite speaker and the connect the sub88’s
right AUDIO OUTPUT to the right side satellite speaker.
• Locate the FREQUENCY control on the sub88’s rear panel
and set the knob to 70Hz (10 o’clock position).
• Before you power up your gear make sure that your mixer’s
output level is turned all the way down so you can fade up
your new monitor system.

Setting up the sub88 - Quick Start
CONFIGURING YOUR MONITOR SYSTEM
Before you start plugging in cables, you should take a minute
and decide how you want to interface your new subwoofer.
Common Sub Operation
In most cases, a common sub ( mono) bass operation is desired.
This is true for several reasons, but mostly because low frequen-
cies produced by a subwoofer tend to be non-directional. Since
low frequency sound waves take so much space to develop,
you can’t tell if the sub-bass is coming from the left or right
side,unless of course you’re in a very large room. Because of
this phenomenon, just about all sub-bass material is mixed in
mono.
Placing the sub88
Because the low frequencies reproduced by the sub88 are
non-directional, you can position the unit almost anywhere. It
is however, a good idea to keep the sub88 away from corners.
Ideally the sub88 should be positioned in the middle, and up
close to the wall you are facing in the mixing position.
