The first type of protection circuitry which prevents overdriving of the
speakeroramplifieroperatesconstantlywithoutbeingaudibleundermost
situations. In some extreme situations (sustained high output levels such
as pro sound usage), the unit may shut down momentarily. This indicates
operationofthethermalorundervoltageprotectioncircuitry. If thisshould
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.

Interconnect Cables
IMPORTANTESCONSIGNESDESECURITE
When installing your new Velodyne subwoofer using the line level
connections, you should always use shielded phono cables. There are
manydecentcablesavailabletoday,mostanyofwhichwillworkperfectly
well. We do recommend that you keep the length of cable as short as
possible to avoid any potential noise problems.
ATTENTION
Risque d’électrocution
Ne pas ouvrir
Attention: Afin d’éviter tout risque d’électrocution, ne pas enlever le boitier (ou partie arrière de
l’enceinte). Aucune pièce ne doit être manipulée par l’utilisateur. Pour tout entretien, vous référer à un
personnel de service qualifié.
When using speaker level connections, use a decent quality speaker cable
that mates well with the connectors. Be very careful to avoid any loose
strandsorfrayedwireswhichmayresultinashort,whichmaydamageyour
equipment. Cables of extremely large size are typically not required.
Extremely large gauge wire may not properly fit in the binding posts,
resulting in a poor connection and possible short circuits.

Prepare for Installation
Your new Velodyne subwoofer provides for a number of installation
options. Read all 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
possibledamage.
Placement
Truesubwoofersoperateatextremelylowfrequencieswhichareprimarily
omni-directional. While it is recommended that the subwoofer be placed
on the same plane as the satellite speakers, room and system conditions
often dictate otherwise. Keep in mind that frequency response and output
level can be drastically influenced by placement, depending on the
acousticpropertiesofthelisteningroom. Typically,theoptimumlocation
for a subwoofer is tucked away in a corner of your listening room. This
location will usually offer the greatest output levels and optimum low
frequency extension. 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 place each subwoofer by the satellite of the same
channel.

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
routedinsuchawaythatitwillnotbewalkedon,pinched,orcompressed
in any way that could result in damaging the insulation or wire.

RegardlessofwhereyouinstallyourVelodynesubwoofer, itmustremain

otherwise storing the subwoofer in any other position for an extended
period of time may result in damage to the unit not covered by warranty.
TheVelodynesubwooferisdesignedtooperateusingthefullrangeaudio
signal for input when using the built-in crossover. Some processors/
receivers, have a "subwoofer out" jack that is internally filtered and
designed to be used with a conventional amplifier and speaker. 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 internal crossover in either the
processor or Velodyne subwoofer. In some installations, simply setting
onecrossovertoahigherfrequency(suchas120Hz)willrestoremaximum
performance. Tobypassthesubwoofer'sinternalcrossoverwhentheunit

you should use the built-in crossover for optimal performance.
The subwoofer is magnetically shielded to reduce the amount of stray
magnetic energy emitted from the speaker's motor structure. This greatly
increasesflexibilitywhenplacingtheunitclosetovideomonitorsasthere
isverylittlestraymagnetism. Certaintypesoftelevisionsareparticularly
sensitive to stray magnetic fields. If your television produces distorted
colors after installing your subwoofer, simply increase the distance
between your television and the subwoofer, until normal color and
operation is returned.
Your new Velodyne subwoofer, like any good speaker system, requires
proper positioning within the listening space to provide maximum
performance. Improperly placed speakers may degrade the sound quality
and reduce your listening pleasure. Depending on the size and type of
furnishings in the room, perfect placement may not be possible. Finding
the best location for 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.

This control allows you to balance the output from the subwoofer to the
main speakers/amplifier in your system. This control should be set to
achieve similar output level from both the main speakers and subwoofer
when listening to music. A good starting point for the volume control is
3or4dotsfromminimum.

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

position 1 (up) for on, and 0 (down) for off. If the unit is to be left unused
for an extended period of time, the master power switch should be turned
off.
Subwooferoutputs
The Velodyne subwoofer is designed to operate using the full range audio
signal for input when using the built-in crossover. Some processors/
receivers, have a "subwoofer out" jack that is internally filtered and
designed to be used with a conventional amplifier and speaker. In some
rare cases, combining both an external crossover and the one internal to
