- Controllo di guadagno: Inizia con il amplifier's gain control at its minimum setting. Gradually increase the gain until the subwoofer output matches the rest of your system without distortion. Avoid setting the gain too high, as this can lead to clipping and damage.
- Filtro passa-basso (LPF): Imposta il amplifier's low-pass filter to a suitable frequency, typically between 60 Hz and 100 Hz. This ensures the subwoofer only reproduces low frequencies.
- Aumento dei bassi: Use bass boost sparingly, if at all. Excessive bass boost can cause distortion and damage the subwoofer.
- Periodo di rodaggio: Allow a break-in period of approximately 10-20 hours of normal listening before operating the subwoofer at maximum volume. This allows the suspension components to loosen up and perform optimally.
