Crossover Adjustments
The crossover control adjusts the subwoofer's internal crossover
frequency between 50Hz and 250Hz. The crossover's slope is
18dB/octave. The higher you set the crossover control, the higher
in frequency the subwoofer will operate. Use the crossover control
to achieve a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the
subwoofer and your main speakers. Generally, the crossover
control should be set at a lower frequency if your main speakers
have larger woofers, and at a higher frequency if your main
speakers have smaller woofers (see Figure 6).
When setting the crossover control by ear, listen for the
smoothness of the bass. If the bass seems too strong at certain
frequencies (especially if your main speakers have larger woofers),
try a lower crossover control setting. If the bass seems too weak at
certain frequencies (especially if your main speakers have smaller
woofers), try a higher crossover control setting.
Ideally, the crossover control should be set to the frequency where
your main speakers low-frequency response rolloff is -3dB down.
Phase Adjustments
When the subwoofer's PHASE switch is in the 0 position, a positive
input voltage will cause the woofer cone to move out towards the
room. When the phase switch is in the 180 position, a positive input
voltage will cause the woofer cone to move in away from the room
(see Figure 6).
STATUS
There is no absolute correct setting for the phase switch.
Depending on the location of the subwoofer relative to your main
VOLUME
speakers and seating location, one of the settings will produce a
better match with the main speakers, improving bass impact and
in some cases, improving overall bass level as well.

MAX
CROSSOVER
To determine the correct setting of the phase switch, listen to
150 HZ
music with significant impactful bass content with the switch in
75 HZ
200 HZ
each position. It may be helpful to sit in the normal listening position
250 HZ
50 HZ
while someone else changes the phase switch between 0 and 180.
BYPASS
PHASE
Leave the switch in the position that produces audibly louder bass
90 DEG
with more impact.
Ground Lift
0 DEG
180 DEG
Your Sonance Cabinet Subwoofer features a ground lift switch
available to eliminate most ground hum issues. To reduce the
LINE LEVEL INPUT
ground current and induced noises, switch the ground lift from
isolated to grounded. Safety is not affected (see Figure 7).
