Speaker Connections and Operation
Operation
Turning the Subwoofer On and Off
Set the HKTS 160SUB’s Power switch to the "ON" position.
If the Power On Mode switch is set to "AUTO", the HKTS 160SUB will automatically
turn itself on when it receives an audio signal, and it will go into standby mode
when it has received no audio signal for 15 minutes. The subwoofer’s LED will
glow white when the subwoofer is on and will not be illuminated when the
subwoofer is in standby.
If the Power On Mode switch is set to "ON", the HKTS 160SUB will remain on at
all times. The HKTS 160SUB’s LED will glow white.
If you will be away from home for an extended period of time, or if you will not be using
the subwoofer for an extended period, switch the Power switch to the "OFF" Position.
Subwoofer Adjustments: Volume
Use the Subwoofer Level control to set the HKTS 160SUB’s volume. Turn the knob
clockwise to increase the subwoofer’s volume; turn the knob counterclockwise to
decrease the subwoofer’s volume.
Subwoofer Adjustments: Phase
The Phase switch determines whether the HKTS 160SUB’s piston-like action moves
in and out in phase with the satellite speakers. If the subwoofer were to play out of
phase with the satellite speakers, the sound waves produced by the subwoofer could be
canceled out, reducing bass performance and sonic impact. This phenomenon depends
in part on the relative placement of all the speakers in the room.
Although in most cases the Phase switch should be left in the "NORMAL" position,
there is no absolutely correct setting for the Phase switch. When the HKTS 160SUB
is properly in phase with the satellite speakers, the sound will be clearer and have
maximum impact, making percussive sounds like drums, piano and plucked strings
sound more lifelike. The best way to set the Phase switch is to listen to music that
you are familiar with and set the switch in the position that gives drums and other
percussive sounds maximum impact.
Subwoofer Adjustments: Crossover
The subwoofer’s Crossover control adjusts the subwoofer’s cutoff between 50Hz and
150Hz. The higher you set the Crossover control, the higher in frequency the subwoofer
will operate and the more its bass will “overlap” that of the system's other speakers.
This adjustment helps achieve a smooth transition of bass frequencies between the
subwoofer and the other speakers for a variety of different rooms and subwoofer
locations.
To set the Crossover control, listen for the smoothness of the bass. If the bass seems
too strong at certain frequencies, try a lower Crossover control setting. If the bass
seems too weak at certain frequencies, try a higher Crossover control setting.
