6.1 Encès/Apagat
Use the POWER switch located on the rear panel to turn the subwoofer on or off. For normal operation, it is recommended to leave the subwoofer in the 'ON' position if your receiver has an LFE output that triggers the subwoofer.

The VOLUME knob on the rear panel controls the subwoofer's output level. Start with the volume at a low setting (e.g., 3-4 on a scale of 10) and gradually increase it until the bass blends seamlessly with your main speakers. Avoid setting the volume too high, which can result in boomy or distorted bass.

- Mida de l'altaveu: Set your main speakers to 'Small' to direct low frequencies to the subwoofer.
- Freqüència d'encreuament: This determines the frequency at which bass is redirected to the subwoofer. A common starting point is 80 Hz, but adjust based on your main speakers' capabilities.
- Nivell del subwoofer: Fine-tune the subwoofer's output level from your receiver's menu for optimal balance.
