1. Lleoliad
Optimal subwoofer placement is crucial for sound quality. Experiment with different locations in your room to find the best balance of bass response. Generally, placing the subwoofer in a corner can enhance bass output, while placing it closer to your main speakers can improve integration. Avoid placing it directly against a wall if it causes excessive booming.
2. Cysylltiadau
The PSW10 offers flexible connection options:
- Mewnbwn Lefel Llinell (RCA): Connect your receiver's subwoofer output (LFE or Sub Out) to the LFE input on the subwoofer using an RCA cable. If your receiver has left and right pre-out jacks, use both left and right line-level inputs on the subwoofer.
- Mewnbynnau/Allbynnau Lefel Siaradwr: For receivers without a dedicated subwoofer output, connect the speaker-level outputs from your receiver to the speaker-level inputs on the subwoofer. Then, connect the speaker-level outputs from the subwoofer to your main left and right speakers.
