INSTALLATION SVS CYLINDER SUBWOOFERS
SVS Cylinder Subwoofers – Base Plate Retained:
1. Using a helper as needed, lay the cylinder subwoofer sideways on a stable surface.
Take care to avoid damaging the amplifier.
2. Peel off the original equipment (OE) rubber disc feet.
3. Only remove one (1) OE machine screw at a time. This will prevent the base plate
from dislodging. Important Notice: - If you are using a powered bit driver to remove and/or
install the machine screws, avoid excessive
downward pressure on the screw, as that
may dislodge the t-nut mounted to the
backside of the woofer end-cap.
4. Install the Isolation foot by inserting
the OE machine screw through the bottom
opening of the rubber foot, through the
opening in the steel outer shell, through the
base plate, through the dowel (re-aligning
the dowel as necessary) and into the t-nut
on the backside of the woofer end-cap.
5. Make sure the machine screw is
correctly aligned and does not cross-thread.
6. Tighten the OE machine screw avoiding
excessive downward pressure. Once the
screw fully tightens and starts to pull
against the end-cap t-nut, tighten securely
using hand-pressure.
7. Using a helper (if needed), carefully
stand the cylinder subwoofer back onto the
installed Isolation feet. Take care to avoid
damaging the amplifier.
SVS Cylinder Subwoofers:
There are two options for installing the Isolation System on SVS cylinder subwoofers - base
plate retained or base plate removed. Retaining the base plate is recommended in
applications which have very high pile carpeting, in order to avoid woofer interference at
high playback levels. Aside from that exception, there is no performance difference
between the two options, so choose whichever option you personally prefer.
Important Notice: - Do not drag the subwoofer base
plate across the flooring with the Isolation feet
installed. This may damage the Isolation feet or the
base plate. If you need to move the subwoofer, always
lift (use a helper if needed) the subwoofer and then
place it into the new location.
