FINAL POSITIONING OF THE SUBWOOFER
The TS subwoofer produces low frequency sounds only. It is difficult to detect the direction
or location of low frequency sounds by ear. The subwoofer can therefore be placed in
any convenient position in the room, but optimum performance will be gained by locating
the subwoofer somewhere between the front pair of speakers. Low frequency output will
increase when placed next to a wall and especially so when placed in a corner, so use
the VOLUME control to compensate if moving your subwoofer around the room. The
phase of the subwoofer may be changed between 0ϒ & 180ϒ (degrees) by operating the
PHASE (Degrees) control on the back panel. In certain room positions the bass quality
may be improved by setting the PHASE (Degrees) control between 0ϒ to 180ϒ. Some
experimentation is required.
LF EXTENSION ‘MUSIC/THEATRE’ CONTROL
This control allows you to optimise the bass extension and upper bass response shape
for CDs and music videos. When playing movies set the control to ‘THEATRE’. When
playing music CDs videos and music DVDs set the control to ‘MUSIC’. Some
experimentation is recommended and setting to half way will usually provide a satisfactory
result on both types of media. For optimum movie sound impact set to ‘THEATRE’. For
optimum CD quality set to MUSIC.
AUTO POWER/ SLEEP FUNCTION
The TS Series subwoofers can be left permanently connected to the mains supply in
power saving mode by switching the ON/AUTO switch to AUTO. In AUTO mode, when
a signal is present from the 5.1 or 6.1 decoder the subwoofer will ‘wake up’ and operate
normally. When a signal is absent for approximately 12 minutes, it will go back to ‘sleep
mode’ and then consumes very little power. If you are not using your subwoofer for long
periods of time, for example going on holiday, then switch the mains switch adjacent to
the IEC mains inlet connector to OFF and remove the power cable (cord) plug from the
mains outlet.
