				Prepare for Installation   
					Your new Velodyne subwoofer provides for a number of installation options. Read all of the   
					installation information below in order to determine which installation option is best for your   
					system. Remember to perform all installation procedures with system power turned off   
					to prevent possible damage.   
					Placement   
					The first step in installing your new DEQ-R sub is to determine where it will be placed in the   
					room. Unpack the system carefully and use the following guidelines in order to find the best   
					room placement option.   
					True subwoofers operate at extremely low frequencies which are primarily omni-directional.   
					Keep in mind that frequency response and output level can be drastically influenced by   
					placement, depending on the acoustic properties of the listening room. To obtain optimum   
					output from your subwoofer, try placing it within a foot of a corner. This location will offer the   
					greatest output levels and optimum low frequency extension. If at all possible, your subwoofer   
					should be placed along a wall. The worst location for a subwoofer is typically far away from any   
					walls and close to the center of your room. Avoid these locations when possible. When using   
					a pair of Velodyne subwoofers in stereo, it is preferable to feed each subwoofer with one   
					channel and place each subwoofer near the satellite of the same channel.   
					Depending on the size and type of furnishings in the room, perfect placement may not be   
					possible. Finding the best location within your environment will likely require some   
					experimentation. We suggest you experiment with the location during setup to find what sounds   
					best to you when seated in your typical listening position.   
					Regardless of where you install your Velodyne subwoofer, it must remain in an upright position   
					(woofer facing forward). Using, shipping or storing the subwoofer in any other position for an   
					extended period of time may result in damage to the unit not covered by warranty.   
					Caution!   
					This subwoofer has electronics built into the cabinet. Do not place the cabinet next to sources   
					of heat such as furnace registers, radiators, etc. Do not place the unit near sources of   
					excessive moisture such as evaporative coolers, humidifiers, etc. The power cord should be   
					routed in such a way that it will not be walked on, pinched or compressed in any way that could   
					result in damage to the insulation or wire.   
					Your Velodyne DEQ-R subwoofer is NOT magnetically shielded. Should you find it necessary to   
					use it with an older CRT monitor or TV, keep it at least two feet from the monitor. Experiment   
					for correct distance by minimizing distortion of the picture and colors.

				Ins tallation   
					Inputs   
					Your new subwoofer is equipped with speaker-level and line-level inputs. Use the LINE LEVEL   
					jacks when connecting your subwoofer to a pre-amp, signal processor (such as LFE out), line-   
					level crossover, or receiver with pre-amp level outputs. When using the line level jacks, some   
					receivers may not provide enough signal to have the unit’s auto-on feature operate properly.   
					Additionally, this lack of signal may also cause the subwoofer to produce less output than it is   
					capable of.   
					To alleviate this condition, we recommend the following steps:   
					1) If using line level jacks, BOTH THE LEFT AND RIGHT INPUT SHOULD ALWAYS BE USED –   
					never use just the left or just the right input. If using line level connections from a   
					preamp or signal processor, use both Left and Right inputs from your preprocessor or   
					preamp and connect them to the Left and Right inputs on your subwoofer. (See figure 2a   
					on page 10.)   
					2) If using a receiver with LFE out, be sure the LFE channel is sending adequate signal to the   
					subwoofer. The subwoofer’s default volume setting is 30 on a 1-80 scale (roughly 1/3   
					volume). Adjust the LFE channel on your receiver or processor to achieve the desired bass   
					output. See your receiver or processor’s owner’s manual for more information. (See figure   
					2b on page 11.)   
					Volume Control   
					This control allows you to balance the output from the subwoofer to the main speakers in your   
					system. This control should be set to achieve similar output levels from both the main speakers   
					and subwoofer when listening to music. The default volume setting is 30 on a 1-80 scale.   
					Warning:   
					Some manufacturers preset their receivers with the Sub-Out channel signal at a minimum level.   
					It is very important to verify that your receiver Sub-Out channel is set to the same output level   
					as your front right and left channels. Refer to your receiver manual for the individual channel   
					level adjustment procedure. If your receiver Sub-Out channel is set too low, the subwoofer may   
					appear to have a weak output, it may sound noisy or distorted, and the Auto On/Off feature   
					may not operate properly.   
					Low-pass Crossover - 40 to 120 Hz   
					All inputs sum the left and right channels together, with the resulting signal passing through an   
					adjustable low-pass crossover before being amplified. The crossover control allows you to adjust   
					the upper limit of the subwoofer’s frequency response from 40 to 120 Hz. The subwoofer’s   
					response will begin rolling off above the frequency you set this control to. You should set the   
					crossover frequency to obtain a smooth and seamless transition from the subwoofer to the   
					main speakers in your system. If your main speakers are smaller with limited low frequency   
					output, you may wish to choose a higher frequency (such as 100 - 120 Hz) than you would with   
					larger speakers which have greater low frequency output. The default crossover setting is 80   
					Hz. With larger speakers, you may want to set this even lower, for example 70 Hz.

				Phase Adjustment - 0°/90°/180°/270°   
					This control allows you to change the phase of the subwoofer’s output signal to correct for any   
					possible mismatch and resulting cancellation between the subwoofer and your main   
					speakers/amplifier. To adjust, simply listen to the system with music playing, then depress the   
					various phase switches on the remote control and listen for a change in mid-bass frequency   
					output. The correct position will have a greater amount of apparent mid-bass frequency output.   
					If the settings sound similar, we recommend the “0” position. See the remote control section   
					for more information.   
					Auto Turn on Function   
					The subwoofer will turn itself on automatically when an audio signal is present. If no signal is   
					present for approximately eight minutes, the unit will switch to standby mode (blank LED). While   
					in standby mode, your subwoofer will draw very minimal power. Your sub is shipped in the   
					“Always On” position. In order to activate the circuit, change the switch to “Stand-by”.   
					Warning:   
					If the Sub-Out channel signal level from your receiver is too weak, this feature will not operate   
					properly and shut the subwoofer off while you are listening to it. To correct this, see the   
					VOLUME CONTROL section on previous page.

				(2) SPEAKER LEVEL OUTPUT Terminals   
					Sends a crossed-over speaker-level signal to the front speakers. See below for a   
					more detailed explanation of this crossover.   
					(3) IR INPUT   
					This is a connection to allow you to purchase a third-party infrared remote sensor   
					on an extended cable for placement closer to your other remote controlled   
					equipment. This keeps you from awkward control angles using the infrared   
					remote control.   
					(4) LINE OUTPUT   
					Connect these jacks to the LINE IN preamp input to use the DEQ-R’s internal high   
					pass crossover. The signal fed from these connectors is rolled off below 120 Hz.   
					LINE INPUT/LFE   
					Connect these jacks to the LINE OUT preamp output, LFE output, or subwoofer   
					output jacks of your receiver/processor. If using the LFE output from your receiver   
					or processor, plug the single cable into the “L” – LFE input or, for more signal, use   
					a “Y” connector (not included) and feed the signal into both “R” and “L” inputs.   
					(5) AUTO ON/OFF Switch   
					Use this switch to select between “stand-by” mode (woofer shuts off after eight   
					minutes) and “always on” operation.   
					(6) VOLUME Control   
					This control allows you to balance the output from the subwoofer to the main   
					speakers in your system. This control should be set to achieve similar volume level   
					from between both the main speakers and subwoofer. When pressing volume up   
					or down, set the level while watching the LED display for reference.   
					Note: Volume is also controllable by using the supplied remote. When defaults are restored,   
					the default is 30 out of 80.   
					(7) LOW-PASS CROSSOVER   
					Use this knob to select the frequency above which you wish to cut off the signal to   
					the subwoofer. When the knob is turned all the way to the left, the Subwoofer   
					Direct feature is invoked and the subwoofer plays all frequencies up to 120 Hz.

				Rear Panel Connections — Detailed Explanation   
					Your new subwoofer is equipped with both speaker-level and line-level inputs. Use the   
					RCA/Phono type “INPUT” jacks when connecting your subwoofer to a pre-amp, signal   
					processor, or line-level crossover. The “SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT” jacks connect directly to the   
					speaker outputs of an integrated amplifier or receiver. Your amplifier section will notice no   
					additional loading effects when you use these inputs because of their high impedance.   
					Note:   
					Do not use both the RCA/Phono “INPUT” connections and “SPEAKER LEVEL INPUT”   
					connections simultaneously.   
					Low-Pass Crossover   
					Both sets of inputs sum the left and right channels together and the resulting signal is passed   
					through an adjustable low-pass crossover before being amplified. The crossover control allows   
					you to adjust the upper limit of the subwoofer’s frequency response from 40 to 120 Hz. The   
					subwoofer’s response will begin rolling off above the frequency you set this control to.   
					You should set the crossover frequency to obtain a smooth and seamless transition from the   
					subwoofer to the main speakers in your system. If your main speakers are smaller units with   
					limited low frequency output, you may wish to choose a higher frequency (such as 100-120 Hz)   
					than you would with larger speakers which have greater low frequency output. With larger   
					speakers, you might start with this control set lower, such as 70 Hz.   
					Subwoofer Direct   
					Subwoofer Direct is a setting on the low-pass crossover knob and will allow frequencies up to   
					120 Hz into the subwoofer. See below for a more detailed explanation of this feature.

				Crossov ers   
					Receiver/Processor Subwoofer Outputs   
					The Velodyne subwoofer is designed to operate using the full range audio signal for input when   
					using the built-in crossover. Many home theater processors/receivers (Dolby Digital™, DTS™,   
					THX™) have a “subwoofer out” jack (sometimes labeled “LFE”) that is internally filtered, settable   
					at the receiver/processor, and designed to be used with a powered subwoofer. In some   
					installations, it may be beneficial to use BOTH the Velodyne crossover and the   
					receiver/processor crossover, resulting in a steeper ultimate crossover slope. In some rare   
					cases, combining both an external crossover and the one internal to the subwoofer may result   
					in low output and increased noise. In these installations you may need to bypass the crossover   
					in either the processor or your DEQ-R subwoofer, or simply setting one crossover to a higher   
					frequency (such as 120 Hz) will restore maximum performance.   
					(Refer to Figure 2a Line-Level Subwoofer Connection Diagram and Figure 2b Speaker-Level   
					Subwoofer Connection Diagram, pages 9 and 10 for connection diagrams.)

				Interconnect Cables   
					When installing your new Velodyne subwoofer using the line level connections, you should   
					always use shielded phono cables. There are many high quality cables available today. It is   
					recommended that you keep the length of cable as short as possible to avoid any potential   
					noise problems.   
					When using speaker level connections, use a high quality speaker cable that mates well with   
					the connectors. Be very careful to avoid any loose strands or frayed wires that may result in a   
					short, which may damage your equipment. Cables of extremely large size are not required due   
					to the low current draw of this type of connection. Extremely large gauge wire may not properly   
					fit in the terminals, resulting in a poor connection and possible short circuits.   
					Usage   
					This section addresses usage of your DEQ-R subwoofer.   
					Remote Control   
					The features of the DEQ-R remote control are listed below.   
					• POWER — This button forces your DEQ-R subwoofer unit into   
					standby mode. The woofer will not play and the LED will turn   
					off. The unit will remain in this mode until the POWER button   
					is pressed again. To fully deactivate (i.e. power down) the unit,   
					turn off the power switch on the back panel.   
					• MUTE — This button mutes the subwoofer’s output. The LED   
					on the sub will show 00 if the unit is muted. To unmute the   
					subwoofer, press the MUTE button again and the original   
					volume setting shows on the LED.   
					• EQ — This button automatically equalizes the subwoofer’s   
					output so that it sounds best for its position in the room.   
					To use this feature, remove the grille and plug the supplied   
					Figure 2: DEQ-R Remote.   
					microphone into the Mic-In jack on the front baffle of the sub and place the mic in your   
					preferred listening position. Then press EQ on the remote for about 2-3 seconds. The   
					subwoofer emits 12 “sweep tones” that span the frequencies between 20 and 150 Hz. The   
					LED displays “AU” during the Auto-EQ process. After the sweeps are complete, the unit saves   
					its EQ settings and returns to normal operation. To prevent accidental invocation of the EQ   
					feature, you must hold down the EQ button for 2-3 seconds before the EQ sweeps begin. If   
					the mic is not plugged in, the subwoofer sweeps twice then reverts back to normal functioning   
					without changing any EQ settings.   
					• PHASE — These buttons allow you to optimize the subwoofer’s bass performance relative to   
					the speakers and your listening position. Play some bass heavy music. While listening, push   
					one of the four phase buttons, listen for a few moments, and then press the next phase   
					button. In most installations, one of the four button positions will offer an audibly better blend   
					of subwoofer and speakers. The LED will show the phase selected by showing “PH” followed   
					by the phase number: 0, 90, 180 or 270.

				• LIGHT — If you wish, you can deactivate the numeric LED on your DEQ-R subwoofer by   
					pressing the LIGHT button on your remote. To reactivate the LED, press the LIGHT button   
					again. When the display has been deactivated, it will light only when you make adjustments   
					to the subwoofer controls and then turn off again.   
					• NIGHT — Night mode limits the maximum output of the subwoofer for late night listening   
					or to be more considerate of close neighbors. Press the night button to turn the night   
					mode feature on or off. Night mode, when active, will reduce the brightness of the LED.   
					• VOLUME CONTROL — This control allows you to balance the output from the subwoofer to   
					the main speakers in your system. This control should be set to achieve similar volume level   
					of both the main speakers and subwoofer. When pressing volume up or down, the volume   
					level is shown on the numeric LED on the front panel.   
					WARNING: Some manufacturers preset their receivers with the Sub-Out channel signal at a   
					minimum level. It is very important to verify that your receiver Sub-Out channel is set to the   
					same output level as your front right and left channels. Refer to your receiver manual for the   
					individual channel level adjustment procedure. If your receiver Sub-Out channel is set too low,   
					the subwoofer may appear to have a weak output, it may sound noisy or distorted, and the   
					Auto On/Off feature may not operate properly.   
					Note: The volume can also be adjusted via the buttons on the back panel of the subwoofer.   
					These buttons have the same effect as pressing the up and down volume buttons on   
					your remote. The unit comes preset from the factory with the volume set at 30 out of 80.   
					• PRESETS — There are four listening presets, consisting of Movies, R&B – Rock,   
					Jazz – Classical, and Games. The presets provide the following characteristics for   
					bass reproduction:   
					Movies:   
					Maximum output and impact for explosions and other   
					action adventure movie content.   
					R&B – Rock:   
					Provides the driving bass found in today’s rock music.   
					Jazz – Classical: The tightest, cleanest, lowest distortion bass. The flattest frequency   
					response of the four presets.   
					Games:   
					Maximum loudness available for the impact of video games.

				Res toring Defaults   
					There is a feature that allows you to restore default settings for your DEQ-R subwoofer.   
					By pressing presets in EXACTLY the following order on the remote, the unit will restore its   
					default settings.   
					Preset 1: Movies   
					Preset 2: R&B – Rock   
					Preset 3: Jazz – Classical   
					Preset 4: Games   
					Preset 4: Games   
					Preset 3: Jazz – Classical   
					Preset 2: R&B – Rock   
					Preset 1: Movies   
					When you press the presets in the above order, the front LED will display “P3” indicating that   
					you have restored defaults. The unit’s volume is reset to level 30 out of 80.   
					Care of Your Subwoofer   
					Your Velodyne subwoofer does not require any regular maintenance. Normal dusting or cleaning   
					of the surface for appearance purposes is all that is required. We suggest you avoid any harsh   
					detergents or chemicals when cleaning the cabinet. Abrasives, detergents, or cleaning   
					solutions may damage the finish on the cabinet. We recommend using only a damp cloth to   
					clean the cabinet.   
					During normal conditions, your new subwoofer may be left on continuously without any   
					problems. Using the Auto on/off function, the unit will automatically turn on the unit when a   
					signal is present at the inputs and turn off after several minutes when there is no longer any   
					signal at the inputs.   
					Protection Circuitry   
					Your new subwoofer is equipped with circuitry to provide maximum performance with   
					greatest reliability.   
					The unit is protected against:   
					1) Overheating the amplifier.   
					2) Excessive drop in power line voltage.   
					If either of the above should happen, you should reduce the volume setting or shut the unit off   
					until normal operating conditions return. You may also want to plug the unit into a different wall   
					outlet, as dropping power line voltage will be most noticeable under strenuous conditions and   
					may result in the unit shutting down intermittently.

				T roubleshooting and Service   
					Before seeking service for your amplifier or subwoofer, please re-check all systems. Following   
					is a simple troubleshooting guide to assist you.   
					1. Verify that the unit is plugged in and power outlet used is active.   
					2. Is the power switch on?   
					3. Is the unit receiving an input signal from your source?   
					4. Have all controls (volume, crossover, phase, etc.) been properly set?   
					5. If the unit has been running at high levels, one of the protection circuits may be engaged.   
					Has the amplifier overheated?   
					6. Has the power button been depressed on the remote?   
					7. Make sure binding posts are tightened.   
					8. Is the remote non-responsive? We recommend replacing the batteries in the remote.   
					If the protection circuitry is active, the unit may cycle on and off until operating parameters   
					return to normal. Under more serious conditions, the unit may shut off completely. Normal   
					operation should return upon cooling, but you may be required to turn the power off and then   
					on again to reset the unit.   
					The following conditions require service by a qualified technician:   
					1. The power cord has become damaged   
					2. The unit does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked   
					change in performance   
					3. The unit has been exposed to water   
					4. Some part of the chassis or circuitry is physically damaged
