IDENTIFICATION OF CONTROLS ENGLISH 3 FUNCTION BUTTON : A) TOGGLE SUB ON/OFF: When the BSW150 is network-paired to another Player, pressing the Function Button once will toggle the Player’s Subwoofer ON/OFF switch in the BluOS App. With the switch set to ON, a crossover is engaged: the BSW150 will handle the low frequency while the paired Player will handle the higher frequency content, as dictated by the crossover level.
ENGLISH CHOOSE PLACEMENT Room Acoustics If you are critical about low-frequency response, there’s quite a bit of useful experimentation you can do, especially in combination with the crossover, level, and phase controls of the BSW150. Begin by considering the size of the listening room. The larger the volume of air a speaker must move, the more acoustic output is required to achieve the sound levels you want. In smaller rooms, sound attenuation tends to be offset by reinforcement from wall reflections.
CONNECT FOR SOUND ENGLISH There are several ways to connect the BSW150 to your audio system. Wired Network Connection To use the BSW150 wired to your network, you need to connect it via Ethernet to your router or switch. An Ethernet cable is not included in the box. Follow the steps in the Quick Setup Guide to get your BSW150 positioned and powered on. Open the BluOS App on your phone or tablet. In the right-hand Player Drawer, select Add A Player, and when prompted, select Add Subwoofer.
The settings in the BSW150 have been set to default levels in order to work well with your Bluesound Player in most listening environments. However, you may still require some adjustments to the settings based on placement and personal preference. The following procedure assumes your BSW150 is installed, connected to the network, and paired with a Player. If you are using the BSW150 as a non-networked, powered subwoofer, your ability to do next-level calibration will be limited.
TROUBLESHOOTING ENGLISH Symptom Action Ensure the power cord is connected to the subwoofer and plugged into a live AC No sound outlet. The BSW150 utilizes signal sensing auto on/off circuitry. If no signal is sent to the subwoofer, it will not power up. When using the subwoofer output of a receiver or processor, no signal may be immediately present in this output. The subwoofer will only power up when bass signal appears at the subwoofer input.

THIS PROCESS IS ONLY RECOMMENDED IF YOUR PLAYER IS NOT FUNCTIONING AND AN INTERNET FIRMWARE UPGRADE HAS FAILED. FOR ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS CONTACT AN AUTHORISED BLUESOUND CUSTOMER REPRESENTATIVE BEFORE PROCEEDING! Steps to Factory Reset: 1. Disconnect the player from electrical power. 2. Wait 30 seconds.
