| 20. Do not use this device in tropical climates. 21. Do not use this device at altitudes of more than 2,000 m (6,500 ft). 22. Do not overload wall sockets, extension leads or multiple socket outlets as this could cause fire or electric shock. 23. The device must not be mounted to a wall or ceiling unless intended by the manufacturer. 24. If the device has been moved from a cold environment to a hot environment, make sure that no condensation appeared before connecting the power cable. 25. No naked flame sources, such as lit candles, should be placed on top of the device. 26. The product should only be connected to the mains power type shown on the label on the device. If you're not sure what type of mains electrical supply you have, ask your retailer or your electricity supplier. For devices intended for use with a battery or another power source, see the user manual. | 27. Always leave a distance of at least 5 cm (2") around the product for proper ventilation. 28. When replacement components are needed, make sure that the maintenance technician uses the components recommended by the manufacturer or components with the same technical features as the original product. Using non-compliant components could cause fires, electric shocks or other risks. 29. After any maintenance or repair work on the device, ask the maintenance technician to test it to check that it works safely. 30. The product should only be connected to the mains power type shown on the label on the device. If you're not sure what type of mains electrical supply you have, ask your retailer or your electricity supplier. For devices intended for use with a battery or another power source, see the user manual. | 31. To avoid damaging your hearing, do not listen to loudspeakers at high volumes for long periods of time. Listening to speakers at high volumes can damage the user's ears and may lead to hearing problems (temporary or permanent deafness, tinnitus, hyperacusis). Hearing system exposure to excessive sound level (over 85 dB SPL LAg) for several hours can cause irreparable damage to your hearing. (CEI 60417-6044) |

Thank you for purchasing a Focal product. Welcome to our High-Fidelity world. Innovation, tradition, excellence and pleasure are our values; our one and only aim is to bring you a sound that is rich, pure and true. To get the most out of your product, we recommend that you read the instructions in this booklet, then store it in a safe place to refer to in the future.
Connections
On low-level RCA inputs:
When using a 2-channel amplifier with 'Pre-out' line outputs, Sub 600 P should be connected to the RCA stereo inputs 'Line inputs Right (R)/Left (L)' (fig. B).
On LFE input:
When a multi-channel audio/video amplifier is used, Sub 600 P's single LFE input should be connected to the audio/video amplifier's 'subwoofer' output (fig. C).
Power up (fig. A)
- Before powering up, refer to the safety instructions.
- Check the voltage selector 6 before connecting the power cable into the mains.
- Connect the subwoofer to the mains.
Home Cinema settings (fig. A)
- Connect the subwoofer to the amplifier using the subwoofer's LFE output 5.
- Move the power switch to 'ENABLE' 1.
- Set the 'CROSSOVER' knob 3 in the LFE position.
- Adjust the 'VOLUME' knob to halfway.
- Next, adjust the volume using your amplifier's settings.
Stereo settings (fig. A)
- Connect the subwoofer to the amplifier using the subwoofer's Left & Right outputs 5
- Move the power switch to 'ENABLE' 1.
- Set the 'CROSSOVER' knob 3 to the middle position (around 100Hz).
- Adjust the 'VOLUME' knob to halfway.
- Adjust the bass level depending on the other speakers used. This adjustment can be done by using as varied music programs as possible. The bass should be present without being too heavy.
- Select the phase inverter mode (0^ or 180^) 2. The correct position is the one that subjectively provides the highest and most balanced bass level.
- Fine tune the cut-off frequency to around 100Hz . The lower this value is set to, the deeper and fuller the bass will sound. The higher it is, the more forceful the impacts will be. The settings are correct when all these features are simultaneously achieved.
- Readjust the volume settings as required.
- This procedure should be repeated every time the subwoofer changes location.
'Auto Standby' mode 1
Automatic timed power on / off. The Sub 600 P has an automatic audio signal detection system. When the 'Auto Standby' detector is set to 'Enable' mode, the subwoofer will turn on immediately when an audio signal is detected at the input. In 'Disable' mode, the detector is inactive and the subwoofer remains permanently switched on.
On the other hand, if no signal is detected coming into the subwoofer after approximately 20 minutes, the detection system will automatically place the subwoofer in stand-by mode.
In the event of prolonged absence for several days, we recommend turning the power detector to 'Off'.
Cable choice
To connect the subwoofer to the amplifier, use a shielded RCA-RCA cable of an appropriate length. If in doubt, ask your retailer to advise you on the best solution for your needs.
Positioning
Unlike acoustic loudspeakers that need to be placed at a sufficient distance away from the walls and corners of the listening room, we recommend positioning Sub 600 P subwoofer in a corner.
By placing the subwoofer in a corner, the room resonances will be stimulated in a more linear, predictable way. Not only will bass perception be optimal, but this layout will also make it possible to boost the bass level by 6dB. If for practical reasons you cannot place the subwoofer in a corner, experiment with positioning it in different places within the room until you find the best compromise.
Generally speaking, it is better to place the subwoofer in front of the listening position. (fig. D and E). It isn't recommended to place it behind the listening position.
As the frequency ranges involved are omnidirectional, in principle the bass is not affected by objects or furniture placed between the subwoofer and the listening point (fig. F).
Running-in period
The woofer used in Sub 600 P is a complex mechanical component which requires a running-in period in order to operate at its best and to become acclimatised to the temperature and humidity of your environment. The length of time this takes can vary depending on the conditions and may extend over several weeks.
To reduce this running-in period, we recommend operating your subwoofer for about twenty consecutive hours at medium volume, with music which is rich in bass. Once the loudspeaker's characteristics have totally stabilised, you will be able to enjoy the full potential of your active subwoofer.
Conditions of warranty
All Focal loudspeakers are covered by warranty drawn up by the official Focal distributor in your country. Your distributor can provide all details concerning the conditions of warranty. Warranty cover extends at least to that granted by the legal warranty in force in the country where the original purchase invoice was issued.
Special precautions
The only maintenance required for the Sub 600 P is dusting with a dry cloth. If your subwoofer becomes dirty, we recommend simply cleaning it with a damp cloth.
Never use solvents, detergents, alcohol-based or corrosive products, scrapers or scourers to clean the surface of a subwoofer. Keep the product away from sources of heat.
