Operation Manual

Each Habitat1 will come out of the box independently paired to its own Longbow™ transmier and will
not have issues with “cross talk.” However, if there is a problem, repairing each Habitat1 for independent
operaon should eliminate cross talk.

Now that you have the Long Bow transmier box connected to your amplier and wirelessly paired to
Habitat1, it is me to choose a locaon and dial in Habitat1 for your specic room. Note, this secon will
help guide you in selecng the best locaon and choosing the basic sengs for Habitat1, but will not discuss
installaon. The installaon process will be discussed in detail in the next secon.
Before You Begin
1 Habitat1 is unlike any other REL sub bass system and therefore requires special consideraons for
placement. Habitat1 is designed to be mounted on the wall and will take advantage of the enre wall
to help generate deep bass pressurizaon.
2 Habitat1 can be mounted to masonry or sheetrock walls. For sheetrock walls, it is NECESSARY that
Habitat1 is anchored/screwed into studs in order to properly support long term use. The specialized
brackets developed just for Habitat1 require mounng BOTH upper and lower right side screws into a
stud as well as the upper bracket’s le side. The lower bracket comes supplied with an insert that must
be GLUED and screwed into the wall. If one chooses not to use glue, expect rales to develop.
3 Studs are structural members behind the surface of modern walls. There are generally two types of studs:
wood or metal (typically aluminum). Usually there is a sheet of pre-manufactured building material, oen
referred to as sheetrock or gypsum rock, layered over the top of studs.
