We sincerely thank you for your purchase and invite you to read this manual thoroughly in order to achieve the highest level of performance with your E-Sub subwoofer system. Enjoy.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
JL Audio E-Sub subwoofers combine a state-of-the-art JLAudio subwoofer driver and electronics/amplier package within a highly optimized enclosure to deliver an exceptional listening experience in your home theater or home audio system.
e subwoofer driver in your E-Sub subwoofer system is capable of outstanding linear excursion without distress or audible distortion. is purpose­engineered driver enables your E-Sub to reproduce powerful low-frequency events with stunning impact and outstanding accuracy. e E-Sub drivers oer peak-to-peak excursion capabilities well in excess of 2.5 inches (64 mm - e110), and 3 inches (76 mm - e112) to comfortably handle the dynamics of the most demanding program material.
To get the most from this long excursion driver platform, your E-Sub incorporates a precisely engineered switching amplier. e E-Sub ampliers are capable of unclipped output voltages equivalent to 1200 watts (e110), and 1500 watts (e112) of RMS power when referenced to the nominal loudspeaker impedance, allowing us to take full advantage of each driver’s full excursion envelope.
e beautiful cabinet enclosing the workings of your E-Sub is also the result of careful engineering. To contain the pressures created by the E-Sub driver, we utilize solid, CNC-cut, MDF material with extensive internal bracing features and advanced assembly techniques.
e E-Subs also include an on-board 2-way active crossover, permitting them to support a conventional 2-channel audio system by providing a high­pass ltered output to the main speakers’ amplier, while delivering a low-pass ltered signal to the internal subwoofer amplier. A polarity switch and phase control are provided to aid in achieving an optimal acoustic transition between the subwoofer(s) and main speakers. Inputs are via a pair of line level stereo RCA inputs or via a removable plug for speaker level inputs.
As you can see from this brief introduction, there is a lot of technology in this compact subwoofer. e contents of this manual will explain the features, and guide you through the setup and tuning of your E-Sub to help achieve an outstanding low-frequency listening experience.

PLACING YOUR E-SUB IN YOUR LISTENING ROOM:
Your listening room or theater is an integral part of your sound reproduction system. e physical dimensions of the room and its furnishings, materials, doors and windows play an important role in dening how your system sounds.
When you place a sound source in an enclosed rectangular space, “standing waves” are created, resulting from the relationship between the sound’s wavelength and your room’s dimensions. In other words, standing waves result from sound energy that is trapped in the room as it bounces back and forth between opposing walls. Standing waves in the room create acoustic peaks and dips where the sound is either louder or soer, based solely on your physical position in the room. Energy also “builds up” at the room’s boundaries, creating exaggerated bass response at certain frequencies. ese fundamental room resonances are called room “modes.”
e moral of this mode story is to try and avoid seating positions in standing wave peak or dip regions. It is highly recommended that you place your listening chairs in areas where modal peaks and dips are moderate and do not reinforce one another. e two most obvious areas to avoid are those near the exact center of the room and those close to any of the room’s walls.
Just as your listening seat can be in a peak or dip region, so can your subwoofer. When placed in a room corner, a subwoofer maximally excites the room’s mode structure, creating the strongest output with the fewest dips. When the subwoofer is pulled away from a corner or wall, the room modes are excited less, which can alter the sound at your listening seat.
Be sure to experiment with both your listening seat position and subwoofer position to nd the best solution. Careful experimentation usually leads to a superior sounding system. Use our setup suggestions (illustrated on the opposing page and the following pages) to get you started.
We recommend that you begin by placing your E-Sub in the front of the room, on the oor, near the front le or right speaker. Placing the E-Sub near
solid walls will reinforce bass response and pulling it away from solid walls will decrease bass. Increasing the distance between the subwoofer and the walls may help to smooth upper bass response in some rooms.
We recommend that you avoid placing the E-Sub near windows to prevent rattling and sound transmission to the outside world.
If you are planning to install your E-Sub inside a cabinet, please refer to the guidelines on page 8.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR BUILT-IN INSTALLATIONS
e E-Sub can be integrated into custom cabinetry by following a few simple guidelines.
1) Allow 4 inches (10 cm) of clear space behind the E-Sub’s amp panel for
adequate cooling and connector clearance.
2) On all other sides (except the bottom), allow at least 2 inches
(5 cm) clearance for adequate ventilation.
3) While the E-Sub generally runs only warm during spirited operation, we do
recommend that adequate heat vents are included in any custom cabinet which encloses the E-Sub. A pair of 3 inch (7.5 cm) diameter vents near the bottom of the cabinet and near the top of the cabinet, will allow cool air to circulate over the amp panel of your E-Sub subwoofer system keeping it cool and happy.
4) Your E-Sub subwoofer is capable of moving substantial quantities of
air. If the front of the E-Sub is covered by a custom grille, the grille must have AT LEAST 85 square inches (548 sq.cm.) of vent area for the e112, and AT LEAST 60 square inches (386 sq.cm.) for the e110. ese areas are equal to the woofer cone area for each model and will ensure that the E-Sub’s output is not choked by the custom cabinet.

TOP-MOUNTED CONTROLS IN DETAIL
Top-Panel Power Switch and Indicator LED
e “Power” switch on the top panel determines the operational readiness of the E-Sub subwoofer and should be the only switch used to turn the E-Sub on and o during typical use.
e top-panel “Power” switch has three positions:
“O ”: e E-Sub’s internal power amplier is powered down.
Indicator LED: red In this stand-by state, a tiny amount of power is consumed (< 0.5 watt) to energize the E-Sub’s so turn-on circuitry.
“On”: e E-Sub is fully operational.
Indicator LED: green Power consumption will vary, depending on program material and level
“Auto ”: e E-Sub will power up its internal amplier when it detects an audio
signal at any of its inputs, and will power down the internal amplier if no signal has been detected at its inputs for approximately thirty (30) minutes. While dormant, the E-Sub consumes a tiny amount of power (< 0.5 watt). Indicator LED: amber (dormant) / green (operational)
In the unlikely event that the Auto Turn-On feature is not sensitive enough for a particular system, use a Y-cable adaptor (one female to two male RCA type connectors) to split the incoming signal into both RCA inputs on the E-Sub. is will increase the input sensitivity by 6 dB. Please be aware that if there is signicant noise entering the E-Sub’s input, the E-Sub may not turn o as desired. If this happens, remove the Y-cable adaptor and/or look for the noise source in the upstream components.
IMPO RTANT
e only way to completely power down an E-Sub is to unplug its AC Power Cord. Before disconnecting the power cord, always place the top-panel “Power” switch in the “o” position (to prevent damaging pops and transient noises).
Do not use a power strip switch, switched outlet or any other external switch to interrupt or engage power to an E-Sub in “auto” or “on” positions, as this will also result in undesirable and potentially damaging transient pops.
Master Level Knob
e “Master Level” Knob is used to set the output level of the E-Sub, relative to the rest of the audio system.
When rotated fully counter clockwise, the E-Sub’s output will be fully muted. When at the “0” or straight up position, the level is at reference gain. When turned fully clockwise, the E-Sub’s level is at its maximum sensitivity (loudest).
| e110 & e112Page 14
Page 15
Crossover Switch
e “crossover” selector switch determines the operating mode of the E-Sub’s
built-in active crossover.
“O” defeats the crossover lter, completely removing this circuit from the signal path and is most useful when using a receiver or preamp/processor’s lters and bass-management features.
“On” activates the on-board active crossover. is crossover consists of a 24 dB/octave low-pass lter for signals feeding the E-Sub’s internal amplier, plus a 24 dB/octave high-pass lter feeding the “Line-Outputs” on the E-Sub’s rear connection panel. is is most useful when integrating the E-Sub into a two­channel audio system.
Crossover Frequency Knob
e “crossover freq. (Hz)” selector knob allows the user to choose the crossover frequency of the E-Sub’s built-in, active crossover. It has no eect when the “crossover” switch is in the “o” position. e frequency is variable from 25 Hz (full counter-clockwise) to 130 Hz (full clockwise). 80 Hz is a commonly used lter frequency and usually serves as a good starting point for adjustments.
Polarity Switch
e “Polarity” switch allows the user to select between normal (0 deg) and reversed (180 deg) signal polarity. e “Polarity” switch will primarily aect the small frequency range around the crossover point between your subwoofer and satellite speakers.
Unlike the “phase (deg.)” control, which eectively adds time delay, the “Polarity” switch produces an instantaneous reversal of the signal’s amplitude peaks. For example, if at a given reference point a sine wave has an amplitude peak, by ipping the “phase (deg.)” switch you instantly convert that peak into a trough or amplitude dip. Because the eect of the “Polarity” switch is immediate, it compliments the operation of the “phase (deg.)” control and cannot be replaced by it.
When placing your E-Sub in the room, experiment with the “Polarity “switch before adjusting the “phase (deg.)” control. Either position of the “Polarity” switch may provide a smoother transition between your E-Sub and the satellite speakers. Use source material with good mid and upper bass content for evaluation.
Page 15 | e110 & e112
Page 16
Phase Knob
e “phase (deg.)” control knob allows the user to adjust the timing of the subwoofer output relative to the main speakers. e “phase (deg.)” control will primarily aect the small frequency range around the crossover point between your subwoofer and satellite speakers. e “phase (deg.)” control’s degree labeling is referenced to 80 Hz, since this is the most common crossover point between satellite speakers and a subwoofer. Phase settings between 0 degrees (full counter­clockwise rotation) and 280 degrees (full clockwise rotation) are possible.
Speaker, subwoofer, and listening seat positions vary greatly in home theater installations. Since physical positioning of speakers relative to the room boundaries and each other greatly aects the perceived quality of sound output, sometimes it is helpful to delay the subwoofer output. is is exactly what occurs when you turn the “phase (deg.)” control beyond 0 degrees.
Once your E-Sub has been placed in your listening room to give you the smoothest overall sound, and aer you have determined the optimum “Polarity” switch position (see preceding section), experiment with the position of the “phase (deg.)” control. Using familiar source material with good mid and upper bass content, adjust the “phase (deg.)” control and listen for better dened mid­bass and a smoother transition between the subwoofer and satellite speaker systems. If no single setting sounds better than another, leave the “phase (deg.)” control at 0 degrees.

CONNECTING YOUR E-SUB(S)
Line Inputs
e E-Sub features individual, le and right, unbalanced RCA-type input connectors. ese are the most commonly used connectors for home audio applications.
For systems with a mono subwoofer or “LFE” channel connection, only one RCA-type jack will be used (Le or Right). is method applies to most modern multi-channel receivers and preamplier / processors.
Separate le and right RCA-type input jacks are provided for systems without a dedicated mono subwoofer connection. is typically applies to two-channel audio equipment. In a two-channel application, you must supply separate le and right inputs to a single E-Sub in order to have high-pass ltered, stereo outputs from its Line Outputs. e E-Sub will automatically sum the le and right inputs to feed its internal subwoofer amplier. RCA-type connectors (one for each channel):
Tip: Positive
Sleeve: Negative
Input Impedance: 10 kΩ
“Grounded / Isolated” Switch
is feature is included to deal with the signal grounding issues oen encountered in home theater systems when several components from dierent manufacturers are interconnected. e “Grounded / Isolated” Input Mode switch on the rear connection panel alters only the “Line Inputs” and is designed to facilitate a quiet, hum-free connection to your audio or home theater system. is switch has no eect on signals connected to the “High-Level Inputs”.
e E-Sub ships with this switch in the “Isolated” position. If, with all system components connected and turned on (but no source material playing), you hear a continuous low-frequency hum through your E-Sub, ip this switch to the “Grounded” position and evaluate the dierence in the noise level. Use whichever switch position provides the least hum or noise.
High Level Inputs
is feature is included for convenience when needing to connect the E-Sub to a receiver or integrated amplier that only oers speaker level outputs. It is not the preferred method when a line-level signal is available.
To use the “High Level Inputs” feature, simply connect the speaker outputs of the receiver or integrated amplier to the “High Level Input” plug of the E-Sub, in parallel with the main speakers. e main speakers will remain full-range in this application and their sound will not be aected by the connection to the E-Sub.
e “High Level Input” consists of an input connector and removable plug with captured-wire receptacles. Standard speaker cable, up to 12 AWG (3 mm2), can be used and connected to the removable plug by backing out each set screw, inserting the bared end of each speaker wire, taking care not to short any wire to another, and tightening the set screw. Connections are as follows:

e E-Sub features individual, le and right, unbalanced RCA-type output connectors to feed a second subwoofer or an amplier powering main stereo speakers. e “Line Outputs” can be used in two distinct ways, depending on your system’s conguration.
Crossover On: High-Pass Filtered Outputs
When the E-Sub’s on-board crossover is engaged (“Crossover” switch in the “on” position - page 15), the “Line Outputs” will deliver a high-pass ltered signal according to the frequency selected by the “crossover freq. (Hz)” knob. is creates a true, two-way, 24 dB/octave, Linkwitz-Riley crossover between the E-Sub and the main stereo speakers.
Please note that you must supply separate le and right channel stereo inputs to the E-Sub in order to have high-pass ltered, stereo outputs from its “Line Outputs”. If you supply only one channel of input to the E-Sub, only the line output corresponding to the input with signal will deliver a high-pass ltered signal (the other line output will have no signal). If you are using two E-Subs in a two-channel system, you can assign one E-Sub to the le stereo channel and the other E-Sub to the right stereo channel, using only one “Line Input” and one “Line Output” per E-sub.

When the E-Sub’s on-board crossover is defeated (“Crossover” switch in the “o” position - page 15), the “Line Outputs” will deliver a pass-through, buered signal that is identical to the signal feeding the E-Sub’s “Line Inputs”. is is very useful for passing a subwoofer signal from one E-Sub to another E-Sub in a multi­subwoofer installation.
AC Power Connector
e IEC-style AC cord receptacle receives the heavy-gauge, 6 . (1.8 m) long, power cord included with your E-Sub subwoofer. E-Subs sold in dierent parts of the world are congured for each market’s electrical system and include approprate plugs on their power cords. Please note the voltage markings next to the AC Connector and make sure you are only powering the E-Sub from a receptacle that matches these markings. Do not use any AC power cord other than the one supplied with the E-Sub.
e E-Sub subwoofer is a very powerful device and can draw a lot of current. If too many components are connected with an E-Sub subwoofer to one electrical outlet, you risk tripping a household circuit breaker during very demanding program material. If this happens, split the E-Sub and other components between two AC electrical circuits.

SYSTEM CONNECTION DIAGRAM 1: One E-Sub to Home Theater Receiver or Home Theater Preamp/Processor
Most home theater receivers and preamp/processors provide a single (mono) subwoofer line-level output.
When connecting a mono subwoofer output to your E-Sub, you only need to connect to one of the E-Sub’s “Line Inputs” (Le or Right). Use a good-quality audio interconnect cable with RCA-type connectors.
In most cases, you will use the bass management/crossover features of the receiver or preamp/processor. is requires that the E-Sub’s “Crossover” switch is placed in the “O” position.

SYSTEM CONNECTION DIAGRAM 2: Multiple E-Subs to Home Theater Receiver or Home Theater Preamp/ Processor
Most home theater receivers and preamp/processors provide a single (mono) subwoofer line-level output.
To greatly simplify the connection of multiple subwoofers in a single home theater system, E-Subs include a pass­through line output feature. is allows an input signal connected to one E-Sub to be passed from that E-Sub to a second one, and from the second E-Sub to a third, etc.
When connecting a mono subwoofer output to multiple E-Subs, you only need to connect to one of each E-Sub’s “Line Inputs” (Le or Right). Run an audio interconnect cable from the receiver/pre­pro’s subwoofer output to one “Line Input” of the rst E-Sub in the system. en run a second audio cable from that E-Sub’s corresponding “Line Output” to one “Line Input” of the next E-Sub in the system, as shown in the diagram. Additional E-Subs can be added using the same method.
TOP CONTROL PANEL (#2)
E-SUB REAR PANEL (#2)
IMPO RTANT
You must turn the E-Sub’s “Crossover” o to use the pass-through signal feature, allowing the receiver/pre-pro to perform crossover/bass-management functions. Make sure the “Crossover” switch on the top control panel of the E-Sub is in the “o” position to use this connection method.
Alternative Method:
If running cables from one E-Sub to the next is not practical due to the physical layout of the E-Subs relative to the receiver/pre-pro, you can use a Y-Adaptor cable (splitter) to split the receiver/pre-pro output signal to multiple audio interconnect cables, each feeding a separate E-Sub.
Some receivers and preamp/processors oer multiple subwoofer outputs, which can also be used to connect multiple E-Subs. Refer to the manual of your receiver/pre-pro for details.

SYSTEM CONNECTION DIAGRAM 3: One E-Sub in Mono to Two-Channel Audio System
When connecting a single E-Sub in mono to a two-channel audio system you will use both the “Le” and the “Right” “Line Inputs” of the E-Sub and you will engage the E-Sub’s active crossover by selecting the “on” position on the “Crossover” switch located on the top control panel.
e internal active crossover will apply low-pass ltering to feed the subwoofer’s internal amplier with a summed L+R signal. It will also high-pass lter the input signal and send it to the satellite amplier via the “Line Outputs” jacks. is creates a true two-way crossover that greatly improves the overall performance of your audio system by preventing the subwoofer and satellite speakers from playing the same frequency range, and by liberating the satellite amplier and speakers from the burden of reproducing power hungry, distortion-inducing low-frequencies.
Use good-quality audio interconnect cables with RCA-type connectors to make these connections.

When connecting two E-Subs in stereo to a two-channel audio system you will assign one E-Sub to the le channel and the other one to the right channel. You will engage each E-Sub’s active crossover by selecting the “on” position on the “Crossover” switch located on the top control panel.
e internal active crossover will apply low-pass ltering to feed the subwoofer’s internal amplier. It will also high-pass lter the input signal and send it to the satellite amplier via the “Line Outputs” jack corresponding to the input channel used. is creates a true two­way crossover that greatly improves the overall performance of your audio system by preventing the subwoofer and satellite speakers from playing the same frequency range, and by liberating the satellite amplier and speakers from the burden of reproducing power hungry, distortion­inducing low-frequencies.
You will only use one “Line Input” on each E-Sub (le or right). First, connect the le output of your preamplier to the “Line Input” of the E-Sub designated as the le subwoofer, and then connect that E-Sub’s “Line Output” to the le input of your satellite amplier.
en, connect the right output of your preamplier to the “Line Input” of the E-Sub designated as the right subwoofer, and then connect that E-Sub’s “Line Output” to the right input of your satellite amplier.
Use good-quality audio interconnect cables with RCA-type connectors to make these connections.

SYSTEM CONNECTION DIAGRAM 5: Connecting one E-Sub to a Receiver via the High-Level Inputs
e E-Sub features high-level inputs designed to accept the output of an amplied source, such as a stereo receiver’s speaker outputs. e use of this feature is only recommended when no suitable line­level signal is available.
When connecting a single E-Sub in mono to a two-channel receiver’s speaker outputs, you will use both the Le and Right connections on the “High-Level Inputs” plug of the E-Sub. Use good-quality speaker cables (up to 12 AWG / 3 mm2) to make these connections. Make sure you capture all the wire strands and do not allow any of these wires to short together.
You can make the connections to the E-Sub inputs at the receiver’s output terminals, or at the main speakers, whichever is more convenient. On receivers with A/B speaker circuit selectors, you can connect the E-Sub to the “B” outputs, giving you the ability to easily switch the subwoofer’s signal on and o with the receiver’s speaker circuit selector switch.
e E-Sub’s input section will sum the le and right inputs to mono and apply low-pass ltering to feed the subwoofer’s internal amplier if the E-Sub’s “Crossover” is switched “on”.
Because the main speakers are being fed in parallel with the connection to the E-Sub’s inputs, they will only operate as full-range speakers. Any adjustment of the “crossover” frequency” knob will only aect the sound of the E-Sub, not the main speakers.

RECOMMENDED SETUP PROCEDURES
1) Preparation for Setup Process: ..................................... 24-25
2) Level Setting: ....................................................... 26
3) Polarity/Phase Adjustment: ........................................... 26
4) Experiment with Location: ........................................... 26
PREPARATION FOR SETUP:
Please conrm the following system settings before beginning the setup process. is will ensure a neutral starting point and an eective setup of your subwoofer system.
On your Home Theater Receiver or Preamp/Processor:
Before beginning setup of your E-Sub subwoofer system, we recommend that you set your receiver or preamp/processor as follows (please turn o all E-Subs in the system via their front panel power switches prior to making these adjustments):
1. Speaker Size
In the speaker setup menu of your receiver or preamp/processor, set up all of your high-frequency speakers as “small” with a crossover point of 80 Hz. is will send ALL bass to the E-Sub(s).
2. Speaker Distance
In the speaker setup menu, properly set all speaker distances to the primary listening seat, including the subwoofer’s distance. Use a tape measure to determine these distances (time coherence is important.) If multiple E-Subs are being used, average their distances to the primary listening seat and use that number to set the subwoofer distance.
3. Subwoofer Level
Set the subwoofer level in the receiver or preamp/processor to “0” or its middle position.
4. Tone Controls / Equalizers
Set all tone controls to “0” and defeat all equalizer features.
On your Active Crossover or Bass Management Processor:
If you are using an active crossover or bass-management processor, we recommend that you set it as follows before beginning setup of your E-Sub subwoofer system (please turn o all E-Subs in the system prior to making these adjustments):
1. Crossover Filter Frequency
Select a low-pass lter frequency of 80 Hz (24dB/octave slope, if given an option)
2. Subwoofer Output Level
Set the subwoofer output level to “0” or its middle position.
| e110 & e112Page 24
Page 25
On the E-Sub’s Top Panel:
Please turn o the home theater receiver or preamp/processor to make these adjustments.
1. “Power” Switch
Flip each E-Sub’s “Power” switch to the “On” position.
2. “Crossover” Switch and “crossover freq. (Hz)” knob If your home theater receiver/processor is handling bass management (speakers set on “small”), or if you are using an outboard crossover/bass­management processor, ip the master E-Sub’s “Crossover” switch to “o.” If you intend to use the E-Sub’s built-in, active crossover, select the “on” position and set the “Crossover Freq. (Hz)” knob to the “80 Hz” position.
3. “Polarity” Switch
Flip the “Polarity” switch to “0”.
4. “phase (deg.)” Knob Rotate the “phase (deg.)” knob to “0” degrees

RECOMMENDED SETUP PROCEDURES (continued)
Subwoofer System Setup:
Once you have set the controls on your home theater receiver or preamp/ processor and on your E-Sub(s) to the settings recommended on pages 24 and 25, you are ready to begin setting up your E-Sub for optimum performance.
1) Level Setting
Using familiar music or movie material with deep bass content, adjust the subwoofer level to blend with the other speakers using your receiver or preamp / processor’s subwoofer level control.
In the unlikely event that the subwoofer level control in your receiver or preamp/processor cannot be turned up enough to level match the E-Sub, return that control to “0”. en, use the E-Sub’s “Master Level” control to level match the subwoofer with the other speakers.
For more detailed information on your E-Sub’s level setting controls, please refer to the “Master Level” section on page 14 of this manual.
2) Polarity and Phase Adjustment
It is oen helpful to have a second person operating these controls so that you can easily hear the changes from the primary listening seat.
Listening to familiar source material (preferably music with good upper bass and midbass response), ip the “Polarity” switch from “0” to “180” and listen for dierences. e correct setting will sound most natural with the best upper bass punch and articulation. If both sound similar, choose “0”.
Once Polarity is set, use the same music material to audition dierent “Phase” control settings and choose the one that further enhances the upper and midbass response. If you cannot hear a dierence, set the control to “0.”
3) Experiment with alternative subwoofer locations (if necessary).
If you are satised with the basic performance of your subwoofer, you are ready to move on to the next step. If not, we recommend that you experiment with the position of your subwoofer until you are pleased with its basic performance. Experimenting with placement is KEY to a superior sounding system. Moving the subwoofer just a few feet can have a signicant eect on the smoothness of the bass. For each new position, start with the polarity and phase controls at “0” and repeat the setup process beginning with Step 1.
is completes the basic setup process! You can achieve further improvements through the correct use of processing built into your receiver or preamp/processor. Consult with your JL Audio authorized retailer if you require further setup assistance.
IMPORTANT! WRITE DOWN ALL SETTINGS PERFORMED IN STEPS 1-3 FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE. PAGE 30 IS PROVIDED FOR INSTALLATION NOTES.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I place objects on my subwoofer?
We do not recommend placing any items on the subwoofer cabinet as they may vibrate, causing undesirable noise and possible damage to the nish. Under no circumstances should any object containing liquid be placed on the E-Sub cabinet.
Is the E-Sub magnetically shielded?
NO. To avoid magnetic distortion with certain television types, place the E-Sub at least 3-4 feet (1 - 1.5m) from your screen. If you notice any discoloration in the picture, try moving the subwoofer further away until these artifacts disappear.
Will my electric bill be high if I leave the E-Sub in “Auto” mode?
When in “Auto” mode, the E-Sub’s amplier is only powered up when a signicant signal is detected on the inputs. When powered down, only “housekeeping” circuits remain on, which draw negligible amounts of power from the wall (less than 0.5 watt).
Should I unplug the E-Sub during a thunderstorm or extended absence?
YES. You should unplug your E-Sub during (or before) thunderstorms. is will prevent any possible damage from voltage spikes due to lightning. In these conditions, it’s a good idea to unplug all of your audio/video components. Unplugging your audio/video equipment before an extended absence is highly recommended, in the event that a storm event occurs during that absence.
Is it safe to use my E-Sub outdoors, in a sauna or on a pool deck?
NO. e E-Sub is only designed for operation in dry, indoor environments.

CLEANING YOUR E-SUB
Dust your E-Sub subwoofer’s cabinet using a clean, so microber cloth or feather duster. Microber cloths are commonly available where automotive detailing supplies are sold.
Gloss-black models:
Light smudges can generally be wiped o with a clean microber cloth. For more stubborn smudges, polish and protect the nish using a high-quality automotive wax and a microber cloth, both available wherever automotive detailing supplies are sold.
Vinyl-Veneer models:
Light smudges can generally be wiped o with a clean microber cloth. For more stubborn stains, clean the cabinet’s surface with a damp cloth.
Never use a polish that contains harsh solvents or abrasives as these may permanently damage the nish. Never use furniture polish or any oil-based product on your E-Sub. Never use solvents or aggressive cleaning agents on your E-Sub. When in doubt, test the cleaning product on the underside of the cabinet and let it sit for several days before committing to its use on visible portions of the cabinet.

TROUBLESHOOTING
No sound from subwoofer.
1. Verify that E-Sub is plugged in, turned “ON” & that the top-panel LED is green. If the E-Sub will not power up, check the circuit breaker that feeds its outlet, or the AC power cord.
2. Verify that your receiver’s subwoofer settings have not changed.
3. If your other speakers play, but the E-Sub does not, try changing the cable that connects the E-Sub to the system.
4. If the problem persists, call your dealer or JL Audio Technical Support for assistance.
e bass level has changed.
Make sure your level settings on the E-Sub’s “Master Level” knob and in your receiver/preamp/processor have not changed.
Hums or other unusual noises from your E-Sub
1. See discussion of “Grounded/Isolated” switch on page 17 of this manual, especially if any upstream components, cables, etc., have recently changed.
2. Turn o the E-Sub, disconnect all its input and output signal cables; then turn the E-Sub back on. If the noise disappears, the noise is being caused elsewhere in your system.
Bass sounds “muddy” or “too heavy”.
1. Decrease the overall subwoofer level.
2. Verify your receiver’s subwoofer settings.
3. Try a dierent subwoofer location or main listening seat location. Changing one or the other can have a HUGE eect on how your system sounds. See the placement discussion on pages 6-10 of this manual.
Your E-Sub is clearly audible outside of your house.
1. Revisit the “Master Level” setting on your E-Sub(s) or your home theater receiver/preamp/processor.
2. Inquire with your JL Audio dealer about noise isolation strategies.
3. Move the E-Sub away from windows.
Angry neighbors knocking at your door.
