Owners Manual 7 Unpacking Grille The subwoofer can be operated without the grille. Ho wever, it is recommended that the grille is mounted during normal use to help pr eve nt accidental damage or dirt settling on the cone of the loudspeaker. With subwoofers, the influence of the grille on the sound is virtually negligible.

14 Dynaudio Sub 600 OPERATION Connecting loudspeakers In Home Cinema systems the bass management - meaning the distribution of the low frequencies to the subwoofer and the speak ers - is handled by the settings of the processor/receiver.
Owners Manual 15 Switching the subwoofer on/off Switching the subwoofer on/off Once you have ensured yourself that all necessar y connections have bee n made, the subwoofer and the connected components can be switched on. Switch the subwoofer ON with the main POWER switch on the rear panel.

18 Dynaudio Sub 600 OPERATION Setting the phase (PHASE) With the phase settings you can adjust the timing relationship be tween the subwoofer and main speakers.
Owners Manual 19 Setting the satellite cut- off frequency (SAT Highpass ) Setting the satellit e cut-off frequency (SA T Highpass) Depending on the bass capabilities of the s peakers, the freq uency range of subwoofer and speakers can overlap between 50 H z and 150 Hz.
20 Dynaudio Sub 600 OPERATION Positioning the subwoofer Although it is often said that the location of a subwoofer in a listening room is not critical (as the human ear can not locate direction at very low frequencies), we recommend that you choose its position carefully.
Owners Manual 21 Positioning the subwoofer Imp act of room-modes Every listening environment will have specific “r oom-modes”, whereby in some specific locations in the room and at particular frequencies, the bass may be too much or too lean. This effect will be stronger in squar e and “shoe-box” shaped rooms.
22 Dynaudio Sub 600 OPERATION Positioning possibilities Moving the subwoofer closer to walls and corners in par ticular will generally increase the amount of bass.
Owners Manual 23 Positioning the subwoofer Using multiple subwoofers By using carefully positioned multiple subwoofer s it is possible to even out the different room-modes and thus create a more coherent ov er all bass response in the room.
