5. Configuració

5.1 Col·locació

Optimal placement of the subwoofer is crucial for sound quality. Experiment with different positions in your listening room. Generally, placing the subwoofer in a corner can enhance bass output, while placing it along a wall can provide a more balanced response. Avoid placing it directly against a wall if possible, as this can lead to boomy bass.

5.2 Connexions

1. Entrada d'àudio: Connecteu el subwoofer al vostre receptor AV o amplifier's LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) or Subwoofer output using an RCA cable. The Bronze W10 features both LFE and stereo RCA inputs.
2. Connexió d'alimentació: Ensure the subwoofer's power switch is in the 'Off' position. Connect the supplied power cord to the subwoofer's AC inlet and then to a suitable wall outlet. The unit supports AC 110-120V or 220-240V, selectable via a switch on the rear panel.
3. 12V Trigger (Optional): If your AV receiver or amplifier has a 12V trigger output, connect it to the subwoofer's 12V Trigger input. This allows the subwoofer to power on/off automatically with your main system.

5.3 Engegada inicial

After making all connections, switch the subwoofer's power to 'On'. The power indicator light should illuminate. If using the 12V trigger, ensure your main system is powered on.

6. Instruccions de funcionament

6.1 Controls

The rear panel of the Bronze W10 features several controls for fine-tuning its performance:

• Volum: Adjusts the overall output level of the subwoofer. Start with a low setting and gradually increase until it blends seamlessly with your main speakers.
• Frequency (Crossover): Sets the upper frequency limit for the subwoofer. This should typically be set to match the low-frequency extension of your main speakers. Common settings range from 80Hz to 120Hz.
• Fase: Allows you to adjust the phase of the subwoofer's output relative to your main speakers (0° or 180°). This helps ensure that the subwoofer's sound waves are in sync with the main speakers, preventing cancellation or reinforcement at the crossover point. Experiment with both settings to find the one that produces the most coherent bass.
• Mode: Selects the power mode (On, Auto, 12V Trigger). 'Auto' mode will put the subwoofer into standby when no audio signal is detected and power it on when a signal is present.
• Mode de baix: (Refer to Figure 4.2.3) This switch allows selection between different bass characteristics, such as 'Music' or 'Movie' modes, or a 'Bass Boost' setting, to optimize performance for various content.

6.2 Wireless Connectivity (Bluetooth)

The Bronze W10 features Bluetooth connectivity for wireless control or audio input (check specific model features for audio input capability). Refer to your source device's manual for pairing instructions. The Bluetooth range is approximately 10 meters.
