2. Phase Control Switch
The Phase Control is used to synchronise any delay between the Silver W-12 and main/
satellite speakers. When the Silver W-12 is in phase with the main/satellite speakers
the sound should be full bodied. Sit in a normal listening position whilst adjusting
the phase switch. Help from another person may be required. When set correctly
the location of the subwoofer should be almost undetectable. Experimentation is
recommended in order to achieve optimum results. However it should be noted that
in most cases the phase control switch should be set to 0 degrees, especially when
using a digital AV processor or AV receiver amplifier.
3. Power Mode Switch with On-Auto Facility
The Power Mode Switch has two positions: 'On'–'Auto'. With the switch in the 'On'
position, the subwoofer is permanently switched on under all conditions and will
need to be manually put into Standby mode. While in Standby mode, the W-12
may be woken by pressing the EQ button. In the 'Auto' position the subwoofer
will automatically wake once an input signal is received and will remain on while still
receiving a signal. The Silver W-12 will switch into standby mode following a period
of 20 minutes without an LFE signal. Refer to page 9 for further information.
4. 12 Volt Trigger Input ~ Centre Pin = +12Vdc
For external power control from AV amplifier/ receiver to the W-12. Monitor Audio
recommend using this function and a lead is supplied. This 12 volt signal is generated
by the AV amp/receiver and tells the W-12 to turn on from standby mode. This allows
a more accurately controlled auto on/off function, and is far more energy efficient.
When using the 12v trigger, the Power Mode Switch (3) must be in the AUTO
position, for it to function correctly.
5. USB Connector
This is provided to update the firmware within the W-12.
6. RCA Line Level Inputs (Stereo Left & Right)
For connection to a 2 channel/ stereo amplifier system. Connection should be
provided by a pair of high-quality signal cables from the pre-out section of an amplifier.
Note:- cable lengths should not exceed 10 metres to avoid interference from other
electrical appliances.
