Configuració
Col·locació del subwoofer
The DSWPRO 550WI offers flexible placement options. It can be configured in either a downward-firing or front-firing mode.
- Downward-Firing Mode: The subwoofer is positioned with its feet down, directing sound towards the floor. This is the standard configuration.
- Front-Firing Mode: To switch to front-firing mode, reposition the subwoofer onto its back. A woofer grille (sold separately) can be snapped on, and the included rubber foot inserts should be added for stability. This mode can be beneficial for specific room acoustics or aesthetic preferences.
Experiment with different locations in your room to find the best bass response. The exclusive PRO Room Optimizer technology allows for optimal blending regardless of placement, even inside a cabinet.

Connexió del vostre subwoofer
The DSWPRO 550WI offers multiple connection options for seamless integration with various audio systems.
- Entrada LFE: For receivers with a dedicated Subwoofer/LFE output, connect a single RCA cable from your receiver's LFE output to the subwoofer's LFE input.
- Entrades a nivell de línia: If your receiver does not have an LFE output, use the stereo RCA line level inputs. Connect RCA cables from your receiver's pre-out or subwoofer output to the subwoofer's left and right line level inputs.
- Entrades de nivell d'altaveu: For receivers without line level outputs, connect speaker wires from your receiver's main speaker outputs to the subwoofer's 5-way binding post speaker level inputs. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -).
