Move Test
In this test, you stay in one listening spot and you move the subwoofer around the room. To do the “Move Test”:
1. Place the subwoofer in a new location in the room.
2. Sit in the seating location you use most often.
3. Play some music on the audio system.
4. Listen to the audio output.
5. Repeat Step 1 through Step 4 until you hear the best sounding bass output to you. When you hear the
best bass output, you have determined the placement of the subwoofer for your listening preferences.
6. You’re done with this best placement test and setting up the subwoofer. Enjoy!
Connect Multiple Wireless Subwoofers
In a Single Audio System
If you are using more than one wireless subwoofer in a single audio system, the following two setup options
exist.
OPTION #1: All subwoofers receive the same audio signal. This is the most common setup. For this setup:
1. Connect only one wireless transmitter to your receiver. Follow the instructions for OPTION #1 or OPTION
#2 in the Connect Wireless Transmitter Section.
2. Follow the instructions for SETUP #1 in the Select Receiver Options for Optimal Subwoofer
Performance section.
3. Set the same wireless broadcast channel on the wireless transmitter and all subwoofers. Follow the
instructions in the Select Wireless Broadcast Channel section.
4. Follow the instructions in the Adjust Subwoofer Controls section for each subwoofer.
OPTION #2: Subwoofers receive dierent audio signals. This is a less common setup. Usually, this setup uses
one subwoofer for the R audio channel and one subwoofer for the L audio channel. If using separate R and
L channel subwoofers, place each subwoofer within a couple of feet of the appropriate main speaker for the
channel. If the system’s crossover frequency is high, each subwoofer should be even closer to its channel’s
main speaker. For this setup:
1. Connect a wireless transmitter to each signal you want to transmit to a subwoofer. Usually, one for the
R and one for the L channel. Follow instructions for SETUP #2 in the Connect Wireless Transmitter
Section, except pair one transmitter’s R input to the R channel receiver output and the other transmitter’s
L channel input to the L channel receiver output.
2. Follow the instructions for OPTION #3 in the Select Receiver Options for Optimal Subwoofer
Performance section.
3. Follow the instructions in the Select Wireless Broadcast Channel section, except:
a. Select a unique wireless broadcast channel for each wireless transmitter.
b. Match the wireless broadcast channel on each subwoofer to that of the wireless transmitter that
broadcasts the audio signal the subwoofer is to output.
4. Follow the instructions in the Adjust Subwoofer Controls section for each subwoofer.
In Separate Audio Systems
If you have multiple audio systems in your home, such as one in the family movie room and another in a
bedroom or oce, you can use a separate wireless transmitter in each system. In this case, use a dierent
wireless broadcast channel for each system, to avoid the subwoofers from getting input from multiple systems
due to the close proximity of the systems.
