IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ENGLISH
- Read these instructions.
- Keep these instructions.
- Heed all warnings.
- Follow all instructions.
- Do not use this apparatus near water.
- Clean only with dry cloth.
- Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
- Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
-
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
-
Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
- Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
- Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
- WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, this apparatus should not be exposed to rain or moisture and objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should not be placed on this apparatus.
- To completely disconnect this equipment from the mains, disconnect the power supply cord plug from the receptacle.
- The mains plug of the power supply cord shall remain readily operable.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.
Warning: If using spikes make sure that they do not pierce mains cables etc. under/above the carpet.
When making any connections, switch your amplifier off.
Do not subject your subwoofer to excessive cold, heat, humidity or sunlight.
Position your subwoofer at least 0.5m away from TV sets, computers etc. Some manufacturers forbid the placing of objects on top of their TV sets. Check your TV handbook before installing the centre speaker directly on your TV set. Consult your TV dealer if you are in any doubt.
When you switch on your system or change sources, set the volume control at minimum and turn the level up gradually.
Position hi-fi electronics away from the subwoofer on a rigid stand or cabinet.
Do not connect your loudspeakers to the mains supply, except for subwoofoers.
Retain all packaging materials so that your subwoofer can be repacked and shipped without damage.
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
Do not use your amplifier at full volume.
When an amplifier is driven beyond its power output capabilities it will produce distortion which will quickly damage your speakers by overheating. Make sure that your amplifier is not left unattended when playing, for
example at parties, and turn the volume control down at the first sign of audible distortion.
Avoid extreme settings of tone controls or graphic equalisers. Ideally, they should be set 'flat' or, if possible, bypassed. Ensure that all loudspeakers in the system are correctly wired and are in phase.
Do not attempt to dismantle the subwoofer. There are no user serviceable parts inside and you will render the warranty void.

UNPACKING

STAGE 1
Connecting your receiver to the M-Cube subwoofer
STEP1
Unsheath and connect the umbilical cable bare wires to your receiver's 5 × speaker level outputs. Each wire is labelled to correspond with the appropriate amplifier channel. Connect the cable labelled 'LFE' to your receiver's LFE (subwoofer) output socket.
Do not unsheath or connect the channel labelled 'REAR CENTRE'.*
STEP 2
Connect the umbilical cable multi-way plug to the subwoofer input socket labelled 'SPEAKER INPUT'. Connect the LFE cable to the socket labelled 'LFE IN'.
PLEASE NOTE
IN ORDER THAT YOUR SUBWOOFER FUNCTIONS CORRECTLY, YOU MUST CONNECT ALL RECEIVER CHANNELS TO THE SUBWOOFER VIA THE UMBILICAL CABLE.
*IF YOU OWN A 6-CHANNEL RECEIVER AND HAVE PURCHASED A SIXTH SATELLITE, THE CHANNEL LABELLED 'REAR CENTRE' ON THE UMBILICAL CABLE WILL NEED TO BE CONNECTED TO YOUR RECEIVER.
STAGE 2
Setting up the M-Cube subwoofer
MAINS POWER
The mains power switch is located on the rear panel of the subwoofer, next to the IEC mains inlet.
To power up the unit, firstly insert the mains plug into the mains socket, and insert the IEC plug into the IEC mains inlet in the subwoofer. Then turn the mains switch at the back of the subwoofer to the 'ON' position.
To power down the unit, return the switch to the 'OFF' position.
CONTROLS OVERVIEW
The M-Cube subwoofer has been factory-set to operate in 'default' mode. The default settings are shown in the diagram. You may wish to adjust one or more of the subwoofer controls to tailor the M-Cube response to your own taste.
CONTROLS
FINE VOLUME
This fine tunes the subwoofer output level.
CROSSOVER
Increasing this control (towards '300Hz) will increase the upper bass output from the subwoofer; decreasing this control (towards '250Hz) will reduce the upper bass output.
BASS CONTOUR
Increasing this control towards 'MAX' will give more bass extension and impact, at the expense of some speed and fidelity (more suited to movie playback). Decreasing this control towards 'MIN' will provide tighter, more detailed bass, at the expense of some weight and impact (more suited to music playback). At high listening levels, avoid settings close to 'MAX' for optimum performance.
PHASE
Correctly adjusting this control will help to obtain even-sounding upper bass.
STAGE 3
Additional Features
AUTOPower FUNCTION
If you wish the M-Cube subwoofer to switch to standby when not in use, select 'AUTO POWER ON' [below]. The subwoofer will switch into standby after approximately 15 minutes if no signal is present, and the illuminated top-panel will switch off. The subwoofer and illuminated top-panel will then switch back on if a signal is detected.
If you wish the subwoofer to remain on constantly, until the mains power is switched off, select 'AUTO POWER OFF'.
FITTING SUBWOOFER FEET
For hard flooring: Remove the backing from the 4 × self-adhesive rubber feet, and fit to the recesses on the base of the subwoofer.
For carpeted flooring: Remove the backing from the 4 × self-adhesive rubber pads, and fit to the recesses on the base of the subwoofer. Screw in the spikes and lock nuts, and adjust so that the subwoofer is level when sitting in the desired position.
Hard floors
Carpet
OVERDRIVE PROTECTION
Your M-Cube subwoofer is protected by sophisticated overdrive detection circuitry:
If the safe operating threshold is exceeded, the subwoofer's internal gain circuitry will limit the output to a fixed level. The subwoofer will continue to play at the same level, but with reduced dynamic capability compared to the original recording.
If you notice the protection circuitry activating, you will need to reduce the receiver volume in order to regain maximum performance from your system.
Warning: Be careful. Spikes are very sharp.
When positioning the subwoofer avoid piercing any electrical cables etc. under or above the carpet.
