RCC 300 SUBWOOFER MODULE (RCC300-SM) The RCC 300 Subwoofer Module can be installed into either an: • Artison Pre-Build Box (Volume ::= 0.6 ft3) SOLD SEPERATELY OR • Infinite Baffle (i.e. 2x4 stud wall, 16" On Center spacing at least 4 feet tall, Volume 1.4 fe or greater) IMPORTANT: In an installation of two RCC300-SM's that are being powered by one RCC300-SA, both Subwoofer Modules need to be in either Pre-Build Boxes or be in Infinite Baffles.
INSTALLATION INTO AN INFINITE BAFFLE 1. Use the provided Cut-out Template to mark the desired wall location. Be sure that no piping, wall studs, or electrical wires interfere with the placement of the RCC300-SM. 2. Once the hole is cut and the speaker wire is run, manage the speaker wire around the RCC300-SM. 3. Connect the bare speaker wire ends to the spring-loaded binding posts. 4. Install the RCC300-SM into the cut-out made in the wall. 5.
RCC 300 FREESTANDING SUBWOOFER (RCC300-FS) SUBWOOFER PLACEMENT AND ORIENTATION The RCC 300 Freestanding Subwoofer comes with four rubber feet to attach to the side of your choice. Carefully decide what placement and orientation are best for the subwoofer, the supplied rubber feet are not removable once applied. The classical rule for subwoofer placement is that the subwoofer should be placed near the same wall the front channels are located, at one-third of the total distance of the wall.
RCC 300 SUBWOOFER AMPLIFIER (RCC300-SA) The RCC 300 Subwoofer Amplifier can be installed into either cabinetry, on an equipment shelf, or it can be rack-mounted into a standard 19" Equipment Rack. In any installation be sure to provide adequate ventilation around the amplifier. The RCC300-SA has two simple and conveniently placed mode settings. The Music or Movie user controls are located on the front panel for selection based on the source material.

to be raised to achieve the previous volume levels. If your normal listening position is located in a null, then the only way to truly even out the null is by either moving the subwoofer location to change the room modes that are stimulated OR install a distributed bass system. Distributed bass uses multiple subwoofers in different locations in order to stimulate more of the room modes.
RCC 300 CABINET MOUNT (RCC300-CM) The RCC 300 Cabinet Mount is an accessory for the RCC 300 Freestanding Subwoofer. The RCC300-CM allows the RCC300-FS to be hidden inside of any piece of furniture or built-in cabinetry. The subwoofer is designed to fit snuggly face-down inside the cabinet mount and direct the subwoofer's energy down through the bottom of the cabinet and either directly into the room or out through venting in the cabinet's baseboard.
