Figure 3). Use a high quality, shielded cable for best results. This
can be in place of the conventional speaker wire connections
("HIGH LEVEL IN").
"HIGH LEVEL" – The RPW-10 powered subwoofer can
alternately be connected to the main channel speaker outputs
of your electronics via the "HIGH LEVEL IN" connectors on the
subwoofer's rear panel. Using 16-gauge or larger speaker wire,
connect the RED "positive" (+) terminal of your amplifier's LEFT
channel to the RED (+) terminal of your subwoofer's LEFT
channel input ("HIGH LEVEL IN"). Connect the BLACK "negative"
(-) terminal of your amplifier's LEFT channel to the BLACK
"negative" (-) terminal of your subwoofer's LEFT channel input
("HIGH LEVEL IN"). Repeat this procedure for connecting your
amplifier's RIGHT channel to your subwoofer's RIGHT channel
input (Refer to Figure 4). Take care that no bare wires from any
of the connections touch any other terminals as this could
damage your equipment.
"HIGH LEVEL OUT" – Connect your Left and Right channel
speakers to these terminals instead of those on your amplifier if
it is more convenient than connecting them directly to your
amplifier. These outputs pass through a full range (unfiltered)
signal. This requires that the subwoofer is connected to your
amplifier with the "HIGH LEVEL IN," speaker level terminals
(Refer to Figure 4).
"LOW PASS" (LP) CROSSOVER – The crossover allows the
user to select the upper-frequency cutoff of the subwoofer. The
frequency is selectable from 40-120Hz. Frequencies above the
control's setting are filtered out, allowing you to blend the
subwoofer's output with that of your main speakers. If the
low pass filter function is being provided by your speaker's
electronics, set the "LOW PASS" control to 120Hz.
"GAIN" – This control serves as a volume control for the
subwoofer. It is used to match the output level of the subwoofer
to your main speakers. The volume control on your system's
main amplifier or pre-amplifier will be the overall volume control
for your subwoofer and full range speakers.
"PHASE" 0/180 – This control is used to acoustically match the
subwoofer's output to your main speakers. Select the position,
either 0˚ or 180˚, in which your subwoofer has more output at
the listening position.
"POWER" ON/OFF– This is the main A/C power switch for the
subwoofer. This switch must be in the "ON" position for the
subwoofer to operate and for the "AUTO/ON" switch to function.
Set this switch to the "OFF" position if the subwoofer will not be
used for an extended period of time (i.e. vacation).
"AUTO/ON" – When this switch is in the "AUTO" position, the
subwoofer will automatically turn "on" when it senses a signal.
It will automatically turn "off" after 20 minutes with no signal.
When this switch is in the "ON" position, the subwoofer will
remain "on" as long as the "POWER" ON/OFF switch is in the
"ON" position.
Power LED indicator– Located on the rear amplifier panel, this
LED indicates the operating status of the built-in amplifier. The
LED will light red when the amplifier is in standby mode and
green when the amplifier is on and receiving a signal. For more
information on the controls mentioned in this manual and on
bass management, see your dealer or visit www.klipsch.com.
CARE AND CLEANING OF YOUR POWERED SUBWOOFER
Your subwoofer has a durable vinyl finish that should only require
dry dusting or cleaning with a dry cloth. Avoid the use of abrasive
or solvent-based cleaners and harsh detergents. The brush
attachment of your vacuum should remove any dust from your
subwoofer enclosure.
