Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of an EMP Tek E10s Powered Subwoofer! Your subwoofer is the result of many years of research and development dedicated to producing powerful, accurate bass in home audio systems. This manual contains operating procedures and specifications. We recommend you thoroughly read through the material contained in this manual before connecting your subwoofer. This will ensure you have an understanding of how to setup and operate your subwoofer for optimum performance.
Care and Cleaning To maintain speaker appearance, we recommend an occasional application of a general purpose no-wax surface and furniture cleaner. This may also be used to gently clean the aluminum cone surface. To clean dust from the grille cloth, use a vacuum with a brush attachment. Features A powered subwoofer is a must-have component for any home theater or audio system. The performance of your subwoofer can greatly affect the overall performance of your system.
Setup Suggestions (continued) Placing the subwoofer away from walls will provide the least reinforcement, making the bass sound subjectively thinner than if the woofer were closer to a wall. Good results can usually be obtained by placing a subwoofer along a wall 1-3 feet from a corner. Experiment with placement of the subwoofer and the sub-amplifier controls to achieve the proper bass balance. It is important the signal being sent to the subwoofer be a non-boosted or “flat” signal.
Amplifier Controls and Setup 1. Volume Control: The volume control should be at the minimum setting (all the way counter clockwise) before plugging the subwoofer into a 120V AC wall socket. 2. Crossover Frequency Control: The variable crossover frequency control allows you to set the crossover point of the subwoofer anywhere from 50-150 Hz. This control is only active with use of the left and right line level inputs (#5) and speaker level inputs (#6).
