Turn the control clockwise to increase the subwoofer's volume, or counterclockwise to decrease it. 1 High-Cut (Low-Pass) Filter Switch: Placing this switch in the ON position activates circuitry that cuts out all audio input signals above 120Hz. This allows the subwoofer to focus its power on reproducing the low-frequency portion of the signal, avoiding inefficiency and distortion. Engage this filter when using the Speaker-Level Inputs 7, or when using the Line-Level Full-Range Inputs 5, unless your receiver or processor processes its line-level output using a low-pass filter. The filter has no effect when the Sub Input 4 is used. 2 Trigger Input: Some receivers or sound processors have a Trigger Output that sends a signal to the subwoofer to switch on or off. If your receiver has such a Trigger Output, connect it here. When placed in the AUTO position, and when the Master Power Switch 8 is turned on, the subwoofer will automatically turn itself on or place itself in the Standby mode, depending on the status of your receiver or processor. When this switch is placed in the ON position, the subwoofer will remain on, whether or not it is receiving an audio signal. An LED located on top of the subwoofer indicates whether the subwoofer is in the On or standby state when used with the Trigger On/Off Switch 2 in the AUTO position. The LED is lit blue to indicate that the subwoofer is receiving an audio signal and is turned on, and the LED is lit amber to indicate that no signal is being received and the subwoofer is in Standby mode. When the Trigger On/Off Switch 2 is in the ON position, the LED will be lit blue, whether or not an audio signal is present. When the Master Power Switch 8 is turned off, the LED goes dark, no matter which position the Trigger On/Off Switch 2 is in. 4 REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS
