PREPARE FOR INSTALLATION
Your new Velodyne subwoofer provides for a number of installation
options. Read all the installation information below in order to determine
which installation option is best suited for your system. Remember to
perform all installation procedures with system power turned off to
prevent possible damage.
PLACEMENT
True subwoofers operate at extremely low frequencies which are
primarily omni-directional. While it is recommended that the subwoofer
be placed on the same plane as the satellite speakers, room and system
conditions often dictate otherwise. Keep in mind that frequency
response and output level can be drastically influenced by placement,
depending on the acoustic properties of the listening room. Typically, the
optimum location for a subwoofer is tucked away in a corner of your
listening room. This location will usually offer the greatest output levels
and optimum low frequency extension. The worst location for a
subwoofer is typically far away from any walls and close to the center of
your room. Avoid these locations when possible. When using a pair of
Velodyne subwoofers in stereo, it is preferable to place each subwoofer
by the satellite of the same channel.
Caution! This subwoofer has electronics built into the cabinet. Do
not place the cabinet next to sources of heat such as furnace
registers, radiators, etc. Do not place the unit near sources of
excessive moisture, such as evaporative coolers, humidifiers, etc.
The power cord should be routed in such a way that it will not be
walked on, pinched or compressed in any way that could result in
damaging the insulation or wire.
Regardless of where you install your Velodyne subwoofer, it must remain
in an upright position (woofer facing forward). Using, shipping or storing
the subwoofer in any other position for an extended period of time may
result in damage to the unit not covered by warranty.
