INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of ENERGY® speakers! Proprietary technology and high quality manufacturing will allow you to enjoy the most natural and accurate music reproduction for many years. The advice offered in this manual is
aimed at helping you maximize and maintain peak performance, and therefore, your listening satisfaction. Please take the time to read all of the instructions contained in this manual to make certain your system is properly installed and functioning correctly.
COMPANY BACKGROUND
ENERGY speakers are the result of extensive research into accurate sonic reproduction and represent the leading edge in speaker design and performance. The finest components and cabinet materials combined with sophisticated manufacturing and quality control procedures ensure many years of exceptional performance and listening pleasure.
CABINET CARE
Great care and craftsmanship has gone into the construction and finish of the
cabinet. Periodically use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust or fingerprints. Do not use paper towels or other abrasive materials as it may damage the finish.
NOTE: Please retain the carton and packing material for your ENERGY products, to protect them in the event of a move or if they need to be shipped to a service center. Product received damaged by a service center that has been shipped by the end user in other than the original packaging will be repaired, refurbished and properly packaged for return shipment, at the end user’s expense.
SUBWOOFER PLACEMENT
The placement of your new ENERGY subwoofer is critical to its performance. The
three most common locations include: in the corner of the room (which can result in a boomy or exaggerated low frequency response), placement along one wall but out of the corner (moderate bass performance with increased fidelity over corner placement), or alongside a front speaker (creating a better blend with the front
speaker, but sacrificing overall volume). Experimentation with subwoofer placement is highly encouraged, as slight adjustments can create large benefits in sound reproduction. To further test subwoofer placement, install the subwoofer temporarily in your main listening position and while playing a familiar piece of music, walk around the listening room until you find the best sounding position. This is a possible location for the subwoofer to be placed.
TERMINOLOGY AND CONTROLS
uSTATUS INDICATOR– The LED found on the front panel will illuminate in blue when the subwoofer is functioning. If the unit is in Auto mode and is not receiving a signal, the light will remain off.
vSPEAKER LEVEL IN – The Speaker Level inputs are designed to be used on receivers or amplifiers that do not incorporate any RCA type subwoofer outputs. If your receiver is equipped with an RCA type subwoofer output, these speaker level inputs should not be utilized.
wPHASE – This switch allows for the adjustment of the phase of the subwoofer, in relation to the speakers used in your system, either 0 or 180 degrees.
xVOLUME – This knob can be adjusted to control the level of output
from your subwoofer. The level chosen should allow the subwoofer to blend its output with that of the rest of your audio system.
yLOW-PASS FILTER – This control allows for the adjustment of the low-pass filter. Adjustments can infinitely be made from 40Hz to 120Hz. This will determine the highest frequency that the subwoofer will reproduce.
zLINE IN/SUB IN – These inputs are an RCA type LFE/stereo/mono input. If you are connecting your subwoofer to a pre-amp/processor with a LFE or Subwoofer pre-amp output, connect a single RCA cable to the LFE/Left input.
{POWER MODE – This switch can be set to either On, Off or Auto. If the switch is in the Off position, the subwoofer will not power up. If the switch is in the On position, it will constantly remain on. If the switch is set to the Auto position, when a signal is present the subwoofer will turn on and will automatically turn off several minutes after a signal is no longer present.
|POWER CORD CONNECTOR – Connect the power cord from your AC outlet to this input. Connecting your subwoofer to a surge protector or line conditioner is always recommended. Do not connect the power cord to the switched or unswitched outlet of your receiver as this could damage your subwoofer and receiver.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1)this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2)this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
CAUTION:
FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST RISK OF FIRE, REPLACE ONLY WITH SAME TYPE FUSE AND RATING.

AVIS
CONNECTING YOUR ENERGY SUBWOOFER
CAUTION: All power should be turned off to your system before any connections are made. Careful attention should be taken to ensure that all electronic components are not connected to an AC source. Not doing so could result in potential damage to the system.
METHOD 1 – RCA – SUB IN FOR HOME THEATER OR LFE APPLICATIONS
1.On the rear of the receiver/pre-amp there should be a single RCA type jack marked “Subwoofer/Pre-Amp Out”. Connect a single RCA cable from that jack to the zLINE IN/SUB IN on the rear of the subwoofer. A standard male to male RCA cable is needed.
2.After connecting the single zLINE IN/SUB INconnection, plug your ENERGY subwoofer into an AC outlet. Do not use the AC outlet on the rear of your receiver. After plugging in the unit, switch the Main Power to On.
3.See Final System Adjustments, below.
METHOD 2 – SPEAKER LEVEL – FOR MUSIC APPLICATIONS
1.The other way to connect your subwoofer to your receiver is using a speaker wire connection, by simply connecting the speaker wires from the Front Left and Right Speaker Outputs on your receiver to the Left and Right vSPEAKER LEVEL IN on rear of the subwoofer. It is imperative that speaker polarities be maintained, one must connect the positive and negative wires to the appropriate positive and negative terminals. Failure to do so will result in an out of phase connection, severely limiting the amount of bass in your system.
2.After connecting the vSPEAKER LEVEL IN (speaker wire) between your receiver and subwoofer, ensure no fray wires are touching, as this could cause
a short circuit and damage your electronics. Plug your ENERGY subwoofer into an AC outlet. Do not use the AC outlet on the rear of your receiver.
3.See Final System Adjustments, below.
FINAL SYSTEM ADJUSTMENTS
1.After having turned on the main power switch and having broken-in the speaker, select the correct position for the {POWER MODE, either On or Auto depending on your system. The Auto selection will leave the unit in a self-sensing mode, such that should the unit sense an audio signal it will turn itself on and then shut down after several minutes without signal, while in the On position the subwoofer always remains on. Should the system not be
used for an extensive period of time, it is recommended that the subwoofer be unplugged from the AC.
2.Adjust the xVOLUME LEVEL of your ENERGY subwoofer so that the volume of your subwoofer matches the overall system volume. This ensures a smooth transition between the low and high frequencies of your system.
3.Adjust the yLOW-PASS FILTER on your ENERGY subwoofer so that the frequency range of the subwoofer blends well with that of the front speakers. Setting the crossover too low will create a gap between the frequency response of the front speakers and that of the subwoofer, while setting the crossover frequency too high will create a doubling of certain frequencies, making the music sound boomy. When using small satellite speakers, the appropriate crossover frequency should be from 90Hz to 120Hz, for the bookshelf speakers 70Hz to 90Hz and for the large floorstanding speakers 40Hz to 70Hz.
4.Steps 2 and 3 might require repeating in order to fine tune your system. Ensuring the proper blending between the speakers and the subwoofer is critical to the performance of your system, as a whole.
