Frequently Asked Questions - W893 Revel
How do I connect my Revel W893 subwoofer to my AV receiver?
Use an RCA subwoofer cable from the 'Sub Out' or 'LFE' output on your receiver to the 'LFE' input on the subwoofer. Alternatively, you can use the balanced XLR input if your receiver supports it.
What is the optimal placement for the W893 subwoofer?
Place the subwoofer in a corner or along a wall for maximum bass output. Avoid placing it exactly in the center of the room. Experiment with placement and use the phase control to integrate it seamlessly with your main speakers.
How do I adjust the crossover frequency?
Set the crossover frequency dial on the subwoofer to match or exceed the lower frequency limit of your main speakers. A common starting point is 80 Hz for home theater systems.
Why is my subwoofer not turning on?
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged in and the wall outlet is live. Check the auto-on/off setting; if it is set to 'off', the subwoofer will remain in standby. Also verify that the signal input is active.
Can I use the W893 with a 2-channel stereo system?
Yes, connect the left and right preamp outputs of your stereo amplifier to the subwoofer's line inputs using RCA cables. Set the subwoofer's crossover to blend with your main speakers.
What does the phase switch do?
The phase switch (0° or 180°) adjusts the timing of the subwoofer's output relative to the main speakers. Experiment to find the position that gives the fullest bass at your listening position.
How do I clean the subwoofer's cabinet?
Use a soft, dry cloth to dust the cabinet. For deeper cleaning, dampen the cloth slightly with water and mild soap, but avoid moisture on the driver or electronics. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Is there a break-in period for the subwoofer?
Yes, allow 20-30 hours of play at moderate volume for the driver suspension to loosen. The subwoofer's performance will improve after break-in.
What is the warranty length for Revel subwoofers?
Revel offers a 5-year limited warranty for the W893 subwoofer covering defects in materials and workmanship. Register your product to activate warranty.
Can I stack objects on top of the subwoofer?
It is not recommended to place heavy objects on top of the subwoofer, as it can impede performance and potentially damage the driver. Keep the area around the subwoofer clear for optimal sound.
