not entirely solve the problem, you probably need to raise the Crossover frequency.
Phase Control – In some installations the setting of the Phase control may not make
much difference, whereas in others it may be necessary to go back and forth between
the Phase and Level controls for a while in order to get the very best blend with the
main speakers. Since each control setting (including the one for crossover frequency in
the receiver or processor) affects the optimum settings for the others, it often takes a
while to get everything dialed in just right. Start with the Phase control at 0° and play
a recording with a prominent, repeating bass line in your listening position. Repeat
this process with the control in the 90° and 180° positions. Use the setting that yields
the greatest bass output.
General Comments About Adjustments: Since any change in the setting of one control
tends to change the optimum settings for the others to some degree, the adjustment
process is very interactive and involves a great deal of trial and error. If after a period of
listening and calibration you are still not happy, it may mean that you need to experiment
a little with the location of the subwoofer. That, of course, also interacts with everything
else. Again, patience is a virtue. The end result will be well worth the effort.
CARE AND CLEANING
The only thing you should ever need to do to your subwoofer amplifier is to dust it
occasionally. Never apply any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner or any harsh detergent.
