Earth Lift Hi / Lo Gain The Earth Lift button ensures the Seismix can be connected to a wide range of stereo amplifiers / AV receivers. Should a humming noise be evident when the Seismix is connected, push the Earth Lift button (see figure 1) which interrupts the current that may be circulating from the subwoofer’s signal ground through the mains earth wiring (see figure 4).
trouble shooting Volume The volume control will adjust the volume of the subwoofer only. The control can be set for the subtleties of the lower octaves in musical performances or increased for the earth shattering explosions and effects on movie sound tracks. The volume control on your main amplifier / AV receiver controls volume for your overall system (see figure 1).
