Page 2 SV Subwoofers Welcome. From the entire SVS team, congratulations on your purchase of a new standard in home theater and music bass! Your sub isn’t some generic black box built someplace you can’t even find on a map. It’s made in Ohio, (as in USA), by home audio fanatics... like you. Designed, tested and assembled by hand, your SV Subwoofer is without a doubt one of the best investments you’ll ever make in bringing theater home. We’ll help you to set up your sub rig

Page 3 SV Subwoofers About your SV Subwoofer No powered subwoofers look anything like them, and virtually none work like them either. SV Subwoofers are decidedly different. The best part? You could have spent much more and still not come close to the same bass performance our PC-Plus line gives you. But what makes a subwoofer an SVS? Quality components, sane prices. You might be surprised at how inexpensive the components in some not-so-inexpensive subwoofers are. Make no mistak

Page 4 SV Subwoofers Setup, calibrating and integration What’s to know? Well, first of all, setting up an SV Subwoofer is pretty darn easy. There are a few key things to get right though, if you want to get the most out of your sub… Unpacking. You’re probably eager to fire up your sub (we’re the same way), but take time to carefully unpack your sub. Set the box and other protective shipping coverings aside, just in case you need to return the sub for any reason. Be sure you do

Page 5 SV Subwoofers More Setup, calibrating and integration If you are running a pair of SVS’s (fig. 2), you will need to use a stan- dard “Y” cable adapter (c.) The best adaptor to use for this task has one male RCA connection and two female RCA outputs. (Radio Shack ® stocks them.) From the “Y” cable you can run a standard 75 Ohm signal cable (d.) to each sub thus “splitting” the Low Frequency Effects (LFE) and other bass signals from your receiver, thus feeding both subwoofers.

SV Subwoofers Page 6 “Large”. Selecting the size accordingly will ensure bass goes to most appro- priate speakers, and use the subwoofer correctly too. Also, make sure your subwoofer is turned “ON”. We don’t mean “is your subwoofer amplifier on” (that’ll be important later too!) but rather, is your receiver sending a bass signal to your sub amp? This can only happen if you say “Yes” (or “ON”) to the “subwoofer” setting of any typical Dolby Digital/DTS capable receiver. • Is your rec

Page 7 SV Subwoofers keep input distortion to a minimum, however you should not be set much lower than –5 dB recommended earlier. Why? Some adjustment room is needed to tweak down the bass levels using your remote control. If your subwoofer reading is still too high then turn down the sub’s amp volume a little with each run. But what’s “too high”?? Tastes vary, and so do movie soundtracks, but your SVS is capable of tremendous levels of low distortion, low frequency bass — far more

SV Subwoofers Page 8 Phase. Think of bass waves as conflicting or enhancing each other, depending on the timing of their arrival at your listening location (either together, or not). Since some of your room’s bass might come from main, center and/or surround speakers, as well as your sub, getting these bass wave forms to arrive in a complementary, enhancing fashion is the difficult job of the phase knob. Essentially, this control varies the timing of the bass waves coming from the sub.

SV Subwoofers Page 9 Power. This heavy duty two-position switch next to the power cord will completely cut the power to your sub amp. Flip this switch to off should you ever move the sub or change inputs or outputs. A/C connection. Plug your sub into a dedicated A/C outlet. “Convenience” outlets of typical receivers often don’t provide the needed current. Avoid them. Fuse. User replaceable, contact SVS if you have trouble finding a replacement. Bassy demo scenes to die for.
