Monitor Audio GSW12 - Manual (Page 11)

Positioning
The GSW12 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. Once a desirable position is achieved it is important to check if the cables are long enough to reach
comfortably without being under tension. Leave the GSW12 unplugged until you are happy with it’s location.
Never connect or disconnect any of the input connections with the GSW12 switched on.
Optimal control settings will depend entirely on your system configuration. For initial trials set the controls as follows:
Set Up
Once in position and cables have been routed; connect them to the GSW12. Mains power cable should be connected last. Do
not play any music at this stage.
NOTE: The entire set up procedure can be done via the control panel or remote control handset.
Using an A/V Processor/Receiver
Connect a single interconnect cable from an A/V processor/receiver to the connection marked LFE input. LFE must be
displayed on the control panel display. If ‘Inp’ (indicating stereo input) is displayed, the LFE button on the remote control
can be pressed to select LFE. LFE should then be indicated on the display.
Using the LFE input, negates the GSW12’s crossover filter. This needs to be set on the A/V processor/receiver. Please refer
to the product user manual for further information. As a guide, the crossover should be set up in accordance with the low
frequency limit of the main speakers (see table on page 10).
Using L&R stereo inputs
Stereo L & R input may be required if using a 2-channel stereo amplifier, or an older A/V receiver with no LFE output. Connect
2 x interconnect cables (left and right) from a stereo amplifier or A/V processor receiver to connections marked Line Inputs L
& R. ‘Inp’ (indicating stereo input) must be displayed on the control panel display. If ‘LFE’ is displayed, the LFE button on the
remote control can be pressed to select ‘Inp’. ‘Inp’ should then be indicated on the display.
Once the appropriate input has been selected, you can now enter the set up menu. This is done by pressing enter (on the
remote) or by pressing the encoder.
Factory Settings
Factory settings are denoted by the symbol in the Set Up Guide:
These should be treated as the initial setting when setting up your product. Further fine tuning of the settings can be done if
you feel these factory settings do not match your environment or tastes.
