4.1. Plaatsing

The placement of your subwoofer significantly impacts its performance. Experiment with different locations to find the best bass response in your listening area. Generally, placing the subwoofer in a corner can enhance bass output, while placing it along a wall can provide a more balanced sound. Avoid placing it directly against a wall or in a cabinet without proper ventilation.

4.2. Verbindingen

Sluit de subwoofer aan op uw audio-ontvanger of amplifier using an LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) output or stereo RCA outputs. For optimal performance, use a dedicated subwoofer output from your receiver.

1. LFE-ingang: If your receiver has an LFE output, connect a single RCA cable from the receiver's LFE output to the subwoofer's LFE input.
2. Line-Level Inputs: If your receiver does not have an LFE output, connect RCA cables from the receiver's stereo pre-out (left and right) to the subwoofer's Line-Level inputs.

5. Bediening

5.1. Controles voorbijview

The rear panel of the JBL Stage 2 200P subwoofer provides several controls for fine-tuning its performance:

• Volume (Level) Control: Regelt het algehele uitgangsniveau van de subwoofer. Begin met een lage instelling en verhoog deze geleidelijk totdat de bas naadloos overgaat in uw hoofdluidsprekers.
• Crossover-regeling: Sets the upper frequency limit for the subwoofer. Frequencies above this setting will be sent to your main speakers. Adjust this to match the low-frequency capabilities of your main speakers. A common starting point is 80 Hz.
• Fasecontrole (0°/180°): Adjusts the phase of the subwoofer's output relative to your main speakers. Experiment with both settings to find the one that provides the most impactful and coherent bass.
• Power Mode Switch (On/Auto/Normal/Reverse):
  • Op: De subwoofer blijft continu aan staan.
  • Auto: De subwoofer schakelt automatisch in wanneer een audiosignaal wordt gedetecteerd en gaat na een periode van inactiviteit over naar de stand-bymodus.
  • Normal/Reverse: These settings might refer to specific phase adjustments or power-saving modes. Refer to the detailed manual for specific model functionality.

5.2. Initial Adjustment

1. Stel de Volume control to its minimum position.
2. Stel de Kruising control to approximately 80 Hz, or as recommended by your main speaker manufacturer.
3. Stel de Fase switch to 0°.
4. Stel de Power-modus to "Auto" for convenience.
5. Play some audio with significant bass content.
6. Verhoog geleidelijk de Volume control until the bass output is balanced with your main speakers.
7. Experimenteer met de Fase switch (0° vs. 180°) to determine which setting provides the most natural and impactful bass in your listening position.
8. Further fine-tune the Kruising En Volume controls to achieve optimal integration and desired bass response.

6. Onderhoud

• Schoonmaak: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the subwoofer cabinet. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, waxes, or solvents.
• Ventilatie: Ensure adequate ventilation around the subwoofer to prevent overheating. Do not block the rear ports or place the unit in an enclosed space without airflow.
• Behandeling: Til de subwoofer voorzichtig op wanneer u hem verplaatst. Laat hem niet vallen en voorkom dat hij harde stoten te verduren krijgt.
