0 Subwoofer-Level Control: Volume
may be adjusted using the Subwoofer-Level
Control. Turn the control clockwise to increase
the SUB-TS11’s volume, or counterclockwise to
decrease it.
1 High-Cut (Low-Pass) Filter Switch: Plac-
ing this switch in the
O N position activates cir-
cuitry that cuts out all audio input signals above
120Hz. This allows the SUB-TS11 to focus its
power on reproducing the low-frequency portion
of the signal, avoiding inefficiency and distor-
tion. Engage this filter when using the Speaker-
Level Inputs
7, or when using the Line-
Level Full-Range Inputs 5, unless your
receiver or processor processes its line-level out-
put using a low-pass filter. The filter has no
effect when the Sub Input
4 is used.
2 Music-Sense On/Off Switch: When
placed in the
AUTO position, and when the
Master Power Switch 8 is turned on, the
SUB-TS11 will automatically turn itself on or
place itself in the Standby mode, depending on
whether it is receiving an audio signal. When
this switch is placed in the
O N position, the
SUB-TS11 will remain on, whether or not it is
receiving an audio signal.
An LED located on top of the SUB-TS11 indi-
cates whether the SUB-TS11 is in the On or
standby state when used with the Music-Sense
On/Off Switch
2 in the
AUTO position. The
LED is lit blue to indicate that the SUB-TS11 is
receiving an audio signal and is turned on, and
the LED is lit amber to indicate that no signal is
being received and the SUB-TS11 is in Standby
mode.
When the Music-Sense On/Off Switch 2 is
in the O N position, the LED will be lit blue,
whether or not an audio signal is present.
When the Master Power Switch 8 is turned
off, the LED goes dark, no matter which position
the Music-Sense On/Off Switch
2 is in.
3 Phase Switch: This switch determines
whether the SUB-TS11 subwoofer’s piston-like
action moves in and out in phase with the main
speakers. If the speakers were to play out of
phase, the sound waves produced by the sub-
woofer would be cancelled out, reducing bass
response. This phenomenon depends in part on
the relative placement of the speakers in the
room. In most cases, the Phase Switch
3
should be left in the NORMAL position. How-
ever, it does no harm to experiment with the
Phase Switch
3, and you may leave it in the
position that maximizes bass response.
