Type of Main Speaker Crossover Control Setting Large floor-standing speaker 40-60Hz Small floor-standing speaker 50-70Hz Large stand-mount/ bookshelf speaker 50-80Hz Small stand-mount/ bookshelf speaker 60-90Hz Small satellite speaker 80-120 Hz 2. Phase Control Switch The Phase Control is used to synchronise any delay between the SilverW-12 and main/ satellite speakers. When the Silver W-12 is in phase with the main/satellite speakers the sound should be full bodied.
7. RCA Line Level Outputs (Stereo Left & Right) To be used to feed additional sub-woofers to the W-12 by 'daisy chain' type connection. The outputs are link out only connections and do not provide any form of filtering. 8. LFE Input (RCA Type) This input is to be used when connecting the W-12 to an AV amplifier/ receiver. When using the LFE input, the crossover control is not used.
Top Control Panel 1 2 3 4 EO Button 1. This button has multiple functions, these are listed below: • It wakes the W-12 from standby with a single press • A long press (5 seconds) puts the W-12 into standby mode. • When operational, it cycles through three different EO profiles. • The LED indicates selected EO profile (while operational) and other states depending on mode and colour. A colour matrix can be found below.
4, Volume Control This is used to set the volume control of the sub-woofer. Adjust this to a level at which the sub-woofer blends seamlessly into the rest of your system. See the Set Up proceedure on page 9 for recommended initial settings. Initial Set Up ~ Leave the Silver W-12 unplugged from the mains until all signal cables ~ are connected. The W-12 should now be sited in the most suitable position, preferably not directly in the corner of a room as this may cause excessive bass boom.
Set Up Automatic Position Correction Automatic Position Correction (APC) will optimise the acoustic output of the subwoofer to match the ideal system performance by removing the dominant room modes from the listening position. The APC will take measurements from 3 different seating locations within the room to achieve the most accurate correction. NOTE: Please run the APC before running the automatic room set up of your AV amplifier. To perform APC, follow the steps listed below: 1.
Connected to an AV Receiver The majority of AV amplifiers have automatic setup systems. If your amp has an auto set up procedure, run this now with the volume set to around 10- 12 o'clock, and the power mode switch in the On position. When the auto·set up is complete check the settings on the AV amp for the sub woofer to ensure they are correct. The crossover frequency should be roughly the same as in the table on page 4 and the level should be no more/ less than+/- 3dB.
EO Profiles The Silver W-12 has 3 preset EO profiles. These are EQ1 (Movies), EQ2 (Music) and E03 (Impact). These profiles change the characteristics of the sound from the subwoofer. We highly recommend experimenting with the different profiles to see which most suits your room, tastes, environment, etc. An example of the different profiles do can be seen below: Silver W12 EQ Profiles :.
Specification System Format 25mm with Cabinet Sealed construction with internal bracing Low Frequency Response ~OHz {Typical IEC room } M.D.
Trouble Shooting Fault Mode The Silver W-12 can display 3 individual faults codes. Each fault mode makes the LED in the EQ Button alternate between yellow and another colour; red, green or blue. Mode 1 - Power supply unit issue Yellow/Red flashing Mode 2 - Power amplifier issue Yellow/Green flashing If these faults occur, try carrying out a power cycle first, leaving the mains power removed for at least 5 minutes. If that doesn't solve the error try a factory reset.
