CONNECTING FX 5.1 SUBWOOFER TO  
YOUR SYSTEM  
The FX5.1 subwoofer may be connected in  
any one of the following ways:  
POSITIONING  
As the FX5.1 subwoofer produces low  
frequencies only, it is difficult to detect its  
location by ear. It can therefore be placed  
anywhere in the room, but optimum  
performance will be gained by locating the  
subwoofer between the front pair of speakers.  
Bass output will increase next to a wall or  
especially in a corner; so use the VOLUME  
control to compensate if moving your  
subwoofer around.  
LINE LEVEL  
• Using the subwoofer output on your A/V  
receiver or decoder connect a single RCA  
interconnect to either the left or right line  
input on the subwoofer rear panel. This is  
the ideal connection type as the subwoofer  
output contains the low frequency  
• Ensure that the polarity of the speaker cables  
from your amplifier to the subwoofer is  
correct - failure to observe this will result in  
damage to your amplifier.  
• When using the HIGH LEVEL inputs, ensure  
that your amplifier is not configured in  
bridge mode; damage could result to either  
the amplifier or the subwoofer. If in doubt  
consult your dealer.  
information from all channels.  
• If no subwoofer or spare line outputs exist  
you may connect using a Y-split connector  
on the main preamplifier output  
connections. Use a Y-split on both right and  
left outputs and connect these via an RCA  
interconnect to the left and right inputs on  
the subwoofer rear panel.  
• Alternatively, if your preamplifier has a  
spare set of line level outputs, connect left  
and right to the FX 5.1 subwoofer L and R  
inputs using screened cable.  
SETTING UP  
Ensure the POWER switch is in the OFF position  
and that the POWER light is green.  
You can operate FX subwoofer in two modes,  
AUTO and ON continuously. In AUTO, the  
unit remains OFF until an input signal is  
detected.  
HIGH LEVEL  
• Use your amplifier's speaker out terminals.  
To accommodate the connection of two sets  
of cables, red (+) goes to red (+), and  
black (-) to black (-), twist wires together  
and connect to the amplifier terminals.  
• Alternatively use the 'A & B' speaker outputs  
on the amplifier if provided - A to your  
main speakers and B to the FX5.1  
subwoofer. Do this using a length of speaker  
cable for each channel, wire your amplifier  
outputs to the HIGH LEVEL input terminals,  
on the subwoofer amplifier panel. Ensure  
there are no stray wire strands that could  
possibly short together and damage both  
the amplifier and subwoofer.  
AUTO POWER/ SLEEP FUNCTION  
Firstly set VOLUME control to MIN, and the  
PHASE switch to 0º. The LED will turn red  
when switched ON, or when a signal is  
detected in AUTO mode. Play some music  
through the system and slowly increase the  
volume level control until roughly the correct  
amount of bass is present. Listen to the system,  
adjusting the VOLUME LEVEL control to  
achieve the most seamless integration of  
energy with your satellite speakers. In some  
installation situations, due to room acoustics,  
setting the PHASE switch to 180º will give  
better results. Fine adjustment of the controls  
will take a little time using a range of different  
programme material. Remember that the  
object of a subwoofer is to enhance the output  
of your main speakers, not overpower it.  
The FX 5.1 subwoofer can be left permanently  
on in AUTO mode, under which conditions  
it will revert to 'sleep' mode after approximately  
20 minutes. If not using your subwoofer for  
some time, switch OFF and remove the power  
cable from the mains outlet.  
POWER REQUIREMENTS  
Check that the voltage rating displayed on the  
rear panel is correct for your area before  
connecting. If it is incorrect, move the voltage  
selector on the rear panel to the appropriate  
voltage. The panel mounted fuse should also  
be changed to the correct rating (see below,  
under FUSE PROTECTION). If in any doubt,  
consult your Dealer or Authorised Service Agent.  
WARNINGS  
• Double-check all connections before  
switching on the FX 5.1 system and  
your amplifier.
