POSITIONING
YOUR
REFERENCE
SUBWOOFER
Klipsch
\_
R)
powered subwoofers are designed to reproduce deep
bass
and
deliver the impact that makes your movies
and
music
come alive. Typically, optimum performance will result if you place
your subwoofer
in
a corner of the room
on
the same wall
as
your
front channel speakers (Refer to Figure
1).
Please note that room
placement
can
have a dramatic effect upon the performance of your
powered subwoofer.
Corner
placement,
as
suggested above, will
increase the amount of
bass
output, while placing the subwoofer
along the middle of a wall, or out
in
the room will decrease the
amount of
bass
output. Experiment with a number of different
placement options
and
control settings to find the one that best suits
your particular room
and
taste.
When
choosing your subwoofer's
location, keep
in
mind that you will need to connect the subwoofer's
built-in amplifier to
an
AC
power outlet.

CONNECTIONS
AND
CONTROLS
CAUTION: Ensure
that
the
subwoofer
is
unplugged
from
the
AC
wall
outlet
before
making any
connections.
,.LINE
IN"
Connection- Most
of
today's
surround
receivers (and pre-
amplifiers)
have a line level
subwoofer
output
labeled
Subwoofer
Pre Out,
Sub Out,
SW
Out, etc. If you have
this
output,
connect
one end
of a subwoofer
cable
to
it
and
connect
the
other
end
of
the
cable
into
the
subwoofer
line
input
labeled LEFT/LFE. This
connection
allows
the
subwoofer
to
operate
with
both
music and
surround
sound movies
(refer
to
your
receiver
manual).
In
absence
of a subwoofer
output
on
your
receiver,
as
an
alternative
hookup,
you can
connect
Left
and
Right
channel Pre-Amp
Outputs
from
your
receiver
(if
provided)
to
the
Left/LFE
and Right
input
on
the
subwoofer.
WA-2 Port Connection- For wireless
connectivity
of
your
new Klipsch
R-110SW,
R-112SW,
or
R-115SW
subwoofer,
the
optional
WA-2
is
available. The
WA-2
will
only
operate
with
select Klipsch, Energy, Mirage and
Jamo
brand
subwoofers
that
have a "WA
Port"
input.
The
WA-2
is a 2.4
GHz
product
designed
to
wirelessly
transmit
a signal up
to a 50
foot
radius. See klipsch.
com
for
more
details.
Level - If
your
subwoofer
is
connected
to
a Subwoofer
Output
of a surround
receiver,
first
set
the
subwoofer
volume level
control
in
the
receiver
to
the
"half
way"
or
"0
dB"
position. Then increase
the
volume (or gain)
of
the
subwoofer
up
until
the
subwoofer's volume level matches
the
output
of
your
main speakers.
After
this
setup
is
completed,
the
volume
control
on
your
system's main
amplifier
or
pre-amplifier
will be
the
volume
control
for
both
your
subwoofer
and speakers together. If
your
subwoofer
is
connected
to
the
L/R Pre-Amp
Outputs
of
a receiver
there
will
be
no
subwoofer
volume
in
that
receiver
to
set before
setting
the
subwoofer's gain control.
,.LOWPASS" Control
-The
crossover
point
chosen
determines
where
low
bass
frequencies
are
"handed
off"
from
the
speakers
to
the
subwoofer. If
setting
the
crossover
point
in
the
receiver,
turn
the
Lowpass
Filter
knob on
the
subwoofer
to
the
farthest
point
right
(160Hz). Set
the
crossover
point
based on
the
size
of
the
main
left/right
speakers you are using in
the
system.
As a general rule,
for
larger,
floorstanding
speakers, set
the
crossover
point
between
50Hz-90Hz.
If using small
bookshelf
or
"satellite"
speakers
for
the
mains, set
the
crossover
point
between 90Hz-150Hz. The
smaller
the
speaker,
the
higher
the
setting
until
the
bass
frequencies
blend well between
the
speakers and
your
subwoofer
once
your
system
is
completely
hooked
up. If
your
receiver
does
not
have a crossover
point
setting,
set
the
Lowpass
Filter
on
the
subwoofer
instead
within
the
same
recommended
settings
(see
receiver
manual
for
additional
speaker setup info).
,.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"
AUTO/ON/OFF-
When
this
switch
is
in
the
"ON/AUTO"
position,
the
subwoofer
will
automatically
turn
"on"
when
it
senses a signal. It will
automatically
go
into
"standby
mode"
after
15-20
minutes
with
no signal.
When
this
switch
is
in
the
"OFF" position,
the
subwoofer
will remain
"off"
until
the
switch
is
manually
turned
back
to
the
"ON/AUTO"
position.
Power LED
indicator-
Located on
the
front
baffle,
this
LED indicates
the
operating
status
of
the
built-in
amplifier. The LED will
light
green when
the
amplifier
is
on and receiving a signal. If
the
LED
is
dark
and
not
lit,
the
amplifier
is off. For
more
information
on
the
controls
mentioned
in
this
manual
and on bass
management,
