Dimensions

Configuració

Proper setup is crucial for optimal performance. Follow these steps for initial installation.

Col·locació

• Acústica de l'habitació: Subwoofer placement significantly impacts sound quality. Experiment with different locations in your room. Corner placement often provides the most bass output, but can sometimes lead to boomy sound.
• Posició d'escolta: A common technique is the "subwoofer crawl," where you place the subwoofer in your primary listening position and then crawl around the room to find where the bass sounds best. That location is often the ideal spot for your subwoofer.
• Ventilació: Ensure adequate space around the subwoofer for proper ventilation to prevent overheating.

Connexions

Before making any connections, ensure the subwoofer and all connected audio equipment are turned off and unplugged from the power outlet.

1. Connect to AV Receiver/Processor:
   • For most home theater setups, connect an RCA cable from the "SUBWOOFER OUT" or "LFE OUT" jack on your AV receiver/processor to the "LFE IN" (RCA) input on the subwoofer.
   • If using balanced connections, connect an XLR cable from your processor's balanced output to the "XLR BALANCED INPUT" on the subwoofer.
2. Connexió d'alimentació:
   • Once audio connections are made, connect the included power cord to the subwoofer's power input and then to a grounded electrical outlet.

Operating the Subwoofer

After setup, you can power on your subwoofer and begin fine-tuning its performance.

Encès inicial

1. Assegureu-vos que totes les connexions siguin segures.
2. Turn on your AV receiver/processor first, then turn on the subwoofer.
3. Set the subwoofer's Level control to its minimum setting initially.

Ajust dels controls

• Level (Volume): Gradually increase the Level control on the subwoofer until the bass output blends seamlessly with your main speakers. Avoid setting it too high, which can lead to boomy or distorted bass.
• Crossover:
  • If your AV receiver has a dedicated subwoofer output and bass management, set the subwoofer's crossover control to its highest setting (or "LFE" if available) and manage the crossover frequency through your receiver.
  • If connecting directly to a stereo amplifier without bass management, adjust the crossover frequency to blend with your main speakers. A good starting point is typically 80 Hz, but this may vary depending on your main speakers' low-frequency capabilities.
• Fase:
  • The phase control (0° or 180°) helps ensure the subwoofer's sound waves are in sync with your main speakers. Listen to music with strong bass and switch between 0° and 180°. Choose the setting that provides the most impactful and coherent bass.

Nota: For THX certified performance, it is recommended to use an AV receiver with THX bass management and set the subwoofer's controls according to THX guidelines, typically with crossover set to LFE and phase at 0 degrees.

Manteniment

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Monolith subwoofer, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Neteja: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the cabinet. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, waxes, or solvents, as they may damage the finish.
• Pols: Regularly dust the speaker cone and ports to prevent accumulation, which can affect sound quality.
• Ventilació: Ensure the ventilation openings on the amplifier panel are clear of obstructions to prevent overheating.
• Emmagatzematge: If storing the subwoofer for an extended period, keep it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
