S et the "Subwoofer Gain" on each speaker's input plate to 0dB (the correct setting for most systems and rooms). 3.

On the remote, press the Low Level Off button to make sure that function is disengaged. 5. Now play a mono music recording that has a good balance of bass and midrange. Set the Left Bass level control until you hear a good balance of bass to midrange. As you change bass level, the white LEDs on the front of the speaker will indicate the variation + or - from 0dB in 1dB increments (see explanation of LEDs on page 15). If you have to turn the bass level nearly all the way up to +7dB to get the bass level you want, go back to the subwoofer gain button (Sub Gain) on the input panel and switch to the +10 dB position. If you have to turn the bass level all the way down to get the bass level you want, go back to the subwoofer gain switch on the input panel and switch to the -10 dB position. Repeat the process for the other channel (the other tower). SUB LEVEL SUB GAIN 15 1.800.228.7148 www.definitivetech.com
