Troubleshooting guide
Often, what appears to be a malfunction is due to user error. Before calling for service, please consult the following table.
1 Turn the FREQUENCY control knob using a minus
driver to adjust the cut-off frequency (frequencies
higher than this frequency are cut off).
Turn the FREQUENCY control knob to adjust the balance
between the bass from the rear speakers and the bass from this
unit as desired.
2 Adjust the low frequency phase.
The low frequency tone may be variable depending on the po-
sition of the unit, its orientation or the turn-over frequency. This
can be adjusted by changing the position of the PHASE switch.
Set this switch to either position according to your liking.
[0°] indicates the normal phase and [180°] means the reverse
phase.
3 Turn the VOLUME control knob to adjust the low
frequencies to the desired level.
