Placement Subwoofer
The placement of the SL-10S subwoofer can greatly affect the sound
that is produces. In general, a good bass sound can be obtained by
installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the width of
the wall, as shown. Experiment with different positions to find your
listening preference.
Installation SL-10s Subwoofer
Wiring the System: The SL-10S Subwoofer features a wide variety of inputs to support all different types of
audio equipment. The most popular types of subwoofer connections are listed below. Determine the
connection and obtain the correct signal cable. Choose one option only for hook-up. Do not hook up more
than one option.
Connecting the System:
STEP 1: Make one of the connections as shown above. Power on the main A/V receiver or preamplifier as well
as the SL-10S subwoofer. Select a song or movie to play through the audio system. It would be best to use
media that will take advantage of the low-frequency sounds such as an action packed movie or bass-heavy
genre of music (drums and beats). As a starting point, set the Low Pass Freq. knob to 80 Hz.
STEP 2: When audio is being produced on the main speakers, set the master volume to a desired level. Slowly
adjust the SL-10S subwoofer volume knob to your desired level. The Low Pass Freq. knob can be adjusted if
you feel something is missing. For example, smaller size main speakers (8” or smaller) may require the
subwoofer Low Pass Freq. knob to be set at a higher freqeuency to compensate for the small speaker’s
inability to reproduce a desired low frequency sound. The opposite would apply for larger size main speakers
(10” or greater). Note: The LFE input contains a preset fitered signal and does not require any adjustment to
the Low Pass Freq. knob.
