For connection to an AV Receiver, set the SB-1000 Pro volume to -10 in the app
(on the rear panel, all but the last two lights illuminated). Set the low pass filter to
LFE and the phase to 0 degrees, then run auto-set-up on the AV Receiver. Always
re-run set-up if you move the subwoofer to
another location.

For additional guidance on recommended crossover or low pass filter settings specific to your system,
visit our Subwoofer Matching Tool at www.svsound.com/merlin, or contact our Sound Experts.
For connection to a Stereo Receiver or Pream-
plifier without auto-set-up, adjust the SB-1000
Pro volume to match the output of your main
speakers, and adjust the low pass filter to
blend the bass between the SB-1000 Pro and
your speakers. If needed, consult with our
Sound Experts on the best phase setting.

on the same wall as the front speakers, or anywhere along the front stage in between or outside of your main speakers.

Corner Placement: offers huge impact and reduces the
potential to encounter bass nulls, or ‘dead spots’. If “boominess” occurs, you can try pulling it away from the wall and
using the DSP tuning controls to smooth performance.

Front Placement: In between or to the side of the front
channel speakers often results in the best blending with the
main speakers and center channel and minimizes localization effects.
For most set-ups, a single RCA subwoofer interconnect cable running from the AV Receiver’s “SUB 1” output to the SB-1000 Pro’s
“LFE” line level input is all that’s required to connect the subwoofer into your system. If you run separate Preamplifier and Power
Amplifiers, follow the “Line Level Connection – Stereo Receiver or Preamplifier Left/Right Channels” connection guide below.
Your subwoofer is also equipped with speaker level inputs as an alternate connection method. For all details and setup info,
