5. Asennus

5.1 Sijoitus

Subwooferin sijoittelu vaikuttaa merkittävästi sen suorituskykyyn. Kokeile eri sijainteja löytääksesi parhaan äänenlaadun huoneeseesi. Yleisiä sijoitteluvaihtoehtoja ovat:

• Kulman sijoitus: Often provides the most bass output due to room acoustics, but can sometimes sound boomy.
• Lähellä olevat etukaiuttimet: Can help blend the subwoofer's sound with your main speakers more seamlessly.
• Keskiseinän sijoitus: May offer a more balanced bass response.

Ensure the subwoofer is placed on a stable, level surface and has adequate space for ventilation.

5.2 Liitännät

1. Ensure all audio equipment, including the subwoofer, is turned off and unplugged from the power outlet before making any connections.
2. Connect an RCA cable from the subwoofer output (often labeled 'SUB OUT' or 'LFE') on your amplifier or AV receiver to the LINE IN (L) tai molemmat LINE IN (L/R) inputs on the Tangent EVO E10 SUB. If your receiver has a single LFE output, connect it to the L input on the subwoofer.
3. Once audio connections are made, connect the supplied power cable to the POWER Inlet on the subwoofer and then to a suitable AC wall outlet.

6. Käyttöohjeet

6.1 Virran kytkeminen päälle/pois

After all connections are secure, flip the Virtakytkin on the rear panel to the 'ON' position. The subwoofer is now ready for operation. To turn off, flip the switch to 'OFF'.

6.2 Alkusäädöt

Start with the following settings and fine-tune them to match your main speakers and room acoustics:

• TILAVUUS: Begin with the volume knob set to its minimum position. Gradually increase it until the bass output blends seamlessly with your main speakers without overpowering them.
• YLITYS: Set the crossover frequency based on the low-frequency capabilities of your main speakers. If your main speakers are small, start with a higher crossover frequency (e.g., 80-100 Hz). For larger speakers, a lower frequency (e.g., 60-80 Hz) might be appropriate. The goal is to have the subwoofer handle frequencies below your main speakers' effective range.
• VAIHE: Experiment with the 0° and 180° phase settings. Choose the setting that provides the most impactful and coherent bass response when listening from your primary seating position. This often involves listening to a bass-heavy track and switching between the two settings to hear which one sounds fuller and more integrated.
