SPECIFICATIONS
*This specification conforms to Federal regula-
tions regarding amplifier power ratings. For
purposes of comparison, be certain that all
power ratings conform to these stringent FTC
regulations. Power ratings alone connot predict
actual sound output. For this reason we also
specify the calculated maximun sound output.
SPECIFICATIONS TROUBLE SHOOTING
Possible Solution
• Check AC plug and green LED on
the back; make sure outlet is opera-
tional
• Check volume control on subwoofer
• For speaker level wire conections,
check (+) on amplifier to (+) on
subwoofer and do the same for
(-) to (-)
• Check that RCA line level inputs of
the subwoofer are not wired from
speaker level outputs of amplifier
• Turn crossover frequency down
• Move phase switch to “REV”
and compare
• Turn volume up on subwoofer
• Move subwoofer into corner
• Move phase switch to “REV”
and compare
• Secure all wire and line level
connections
• Route all speaker and/or line level
connections away from AC wires
• Check for bad RCA phono cable
