However, you can optimize the sound potential of your A/V system in the following ways: • Keep the path from the speakers to the viewing area free from obstructions (e.g., furniture, potted plants, etc.). • If the room is ”live” (e.g., plaster walls, wood floors, glass windows, etc.) and produces echoes, try closing the drapes, adding a throw rug, or consider using sound-absorbing panels. • Cerwin-Vega Audio/Video systems can produce intense low frequencies, so don’t be surprised to initially hear rattles and buzzes coming from furniture and other objects; try repositioning or removing offending suspects (e.g., vase on mantle) or placing felt pads under vibrating items. Figure 1 POLARITY - - Caution! This product is designed for specific placement. Do not suspend, hang or wall mount an VE-5M or VE-5C with any brackets, cables, chains or hooks. Place these components only on bookshelves, appropriate stands, or on top of a television/monitor. The VE-8, VE-12, and VE-15 speakers are intended for floor placement only! Do not place heavy objects of any type, such as televisions on top of any Cerwin-Vega speaker unless otherwise recommended by Cerwin-Vega! VE Series speakers are for residential applications only. ENGLISH Subwoofer Installation PRIOR TO INSTALLATION Carefully unpack your subwoofer, saving the box and all of the packing material; at some point you may need to transport, ship, or move your subwoofer. Before continuing with the installation, please make sure the subwoofer is unplugged and the power switch is turned “OFF.” WARNING: Severe damage may result from improperly selected voltage. Set voltage selection switch, to the proper AC voltage. INSTALLATION Please read the following to determine which installation procedure is best for your audio/video system. For additional hook-up connections, you may want to refer to your A/V receiver, processor, preamplifier, or amplifier’s manual. NOTE: Be sure to read and observe the “Safety Instructions” on preceding page before starting the installation. CONTROL DESCRIPTIONS The following controls are located on the subwoofer’s rear panel, as shown (back cover). Attention! The Cerwin-Vega VE-28S have LFE, LINE-LEVEL, and SPEAKERLEVEL input connections; choose one option only for hook-up. Do not hook up more than one option! LFE INPUT: Mono “low frequency effects” connection. Use this input if receiver/preamp/processor has a dedicated LFE or subwoofer OUT. Refer to the owner’s manual provided by your receiver/preamp/processor manufacturer. (see figure 1, back cover for hook-up) LINE-LEVEL INPUT: Stereo low level input to subwoofer. Connect to “LINE-OUT”, “MAIN-OUT or PREAMP-OUT”, of your receiver/preamp/processor using a dual RCA patchcord (not supplied). Refer to the owner’s manual provided by your receiver/ preamp/processor manufacturer. (see figure 2, back cover for hook-up) SPEAKER-LEVEL INPUT: Stereo high-level inputs to subwoofer. Use these terminals when line-level connections are not available from A/V receiver/preamp/processor. Connect to SPEAKER outputs on receiver using high quality speaker wire (16-gauge or heavier). (see figure 3, back cover for hook-up) SPEAKER-LEVEL OUTPUT: Audio loop of stereo high-level (SPEAKER-LEVEL) inputs . Use to loop (continue) signal to speaker connections to the left and right main speakers. VOLUME CONTROL: Controls volume level of subwoofer. Use to balance the output of the subwoofer with the main speaker output. CROSSOVER FREQUENCY: The crossover control allows you to adjust the upper limit of the subwoofer’s frequency response from 40 to 120 Hz. The subwoofer’s response will begin rolling off above the set frequency. Set the CROSSOVER FREQUENCY to the lower value listed in the main speaker manual.* (Note: Crossover control does not function when LFE input is used.) PHASE: This switch allows you to compensate for having the subwoofer in a different location than the main speakers. This control allows the signal to be delayed 180 degrees so the output of the subwoofer will blend in with the main speakers. Slide the PHASE switch to “180”. At the listening position, listen to the midbass output. If it sounds weak, set PHASE back t...
