Настройка

1. размяшчэнне

Optimal subwoofer placement is crucial for sound quality. Experiment with different locations in your room to find the best balance of bass response. Generally, placing the subwoofer in a corner can enhance bass output, while placing it closer to your main speakers can improve integration. Avoid placing it directly against a wall if it causes excessive booming.

2. Сувязі

The PSW10 offers flexible connection options:

  • Лінейны ўваход (RCA): Connect your receiver's subwoofer output (LFE or Sub Out) to the LFE input on the subwoofer using an RCA cable. If your receiver has left and right pre-out jacks, use both left and right line-level inputs on the subwoofer.
  • Speaker-Level Inputs/Outputs: For receivers without a dedicated subwoofer output, connect the speaker-level outputs from your receiver to the speaker-level inputs on the subwoofer. Then, connect the speaker-level outputs from the subwoofer to your main left and right speakers.
