This light and the one on the front of the
subwoofer will glow green if the amplifier
is currently operational, and red for 5
seconds during start-up or if the amplifier
is set for auto-on that is not currently
activated. It will flash in various colors
and patterns when heat or line voltage is
a problem.
Set this adjustment to match the distance
from the side of the subwoofer to the side
wall of the room (in meters).
Set this adjustment to match the distance
from the rear of the subwoofer to the rear
wall of the room (in meters).
This level adjustment functions only for
the LFE input. If you are not using the
LFE input, set this to minimum (OFF).
If the subwoofer volume is set by the
processor then a good starting point is
90.
This displays the current setting of the
adjustment designated by the light above.
This button increases the active setting.
This button selects which setting is active.
This button decreases the active setting.
Connect an input cable to this connector
if the subwoofer is being used for the
processor’s subwoofer output.
If the LFE input is used, this connector
can connect to an additional subwoofer.
Connect an input cable to this connector
if the subwoofer is being driven by a
crossover or Integrator.
If the Normal input is used, then this
connector can be used to connect to an
additional subwoofer.
DC voltage (5-25 volts) to this jack will
turn the amplifier on if the auto/on switch
is set to auto. Removing the voltage turns
the amp off.
Setting this switch to On turns the
amplifier on (after a 3 second start-up
delay) provided that the main power
switch is on. The Auto position allows the
amplifier to automatically turn on when it
detects an input or a trigger.

Feet
The SS2 and SS3 are supplied with four pointed, screw-in
feet that can be used to provide firmer coupling to the floor
for slightly better sound quality and to prevent the unit from
moving during use. Please be advised that their use can put
dents in hardwood floors. They are screwed into the bottom
of the unit, and should be individually adjusted until the unit
is firmly seated onto the floor without rocking. Then tighten
each of the back-nuts to lock the feet in place.
The SS4 has four large castors and four large stabilizer feet built
into the bottom of its cabinet. The unit is supplied with the
stabilizers screwed into the bottom so that the unit can be rolled to
its desired location. If desired, the stabilizers can be screwed down
beyond the point where they are touching the floor in order to lift
the SS4 off of its wheels and allow the weight to be connected
through the stabilizers to the floor. This will prevent the unit from
moving on its wheels. The stabilizers should be adjusted individually
so that the unit does not rock and sits firmly.
