The Subwoofer requires connection to the
mains power supply, so for your safety it is
important that you read both this manual and
the amplifier manual before connecting.
Subwoofer positioning
Variations in placement of loudspeakers can
produce dramatic differences in the way music
sounds. No listening room is the same and
therefore we encourage you to spend some
time experimenting with which placements
work best in your listening room. Positioning
of Subwoofers is however less critical
compared with full-range loudspeakers
because the low frequencies reproduced by a
subwoofer can be difficult to locate in the
room. You can start with our basic
recommendations.
To begin with, if you use the Subwoofer in a
surround set-up, the Subwoofer should ideally
be positioned between the TV and one of your
front loudspeakers, as fig. 2 to 4 on page 5. If
you are using the Subwoofer in a stereo set-
up the Subwoofer should ideally be positioned
between the two front stereo speakers, as
fig.1on page 5.
You should know that, if the Subwoofer is
placed close to a wall or in a corner, the bass
sound will be enhanced.
It's your choice what you like the most.
Another example is the placement of the
Subwoofer in the middle of the stereo
speakers or away from the center of the
stereo speakers.
This may have an impact on how you perceive
the stereo image, even though its only low
frequency sounds that come from the
Subwoofer.
Trust your ears and be willing to experiment
freely.
(Almost) everything is possible
Running-in period
We recommend a running-in time of your new
BASS 12/15 Subwoofer of approximately 15-
20 hours at normal listening
level before you decide on the final positioning
and control settings of the Subwoofer. During
the running-in time the drive units will settle in
and perform as intended.

Connecting your Subwoofer
We recommend that you read the manual of
your Amplifier or AV-receiver carefully before
connecting your Subwoofer.
First switch off the Amplifier and all equipment
before you connect the Subwoofer.
Connect your Amplifier/av-reciever's
SUB-OUT or PRE-OUT to either INPUT
right/left (1 or 2) as shown on page 4.
If you use a Stereo Amplifier it's
recommended to use the INPUT right/left
connections (1) as shown on page 4.
If you use a AV receiver with a SUB out it's
recommended to use the LFE connection (2)
on page 4.
When finished, connect the subwoofer power
cable (9) as shown on page 4 to the mains
voltage, and push the POWER ON/OFF
button (10) as shown on page 4 to ON
position, the indicator lamp POWER LED will
now glow blue and the Subwoofer is active
and ready to be used.
The Argon BASS 12/15 Subwoofer has a
built-in AUTO STANDBY function ( 9) as
shown on page 4 and after approximately 20
minutes, without any input signal, the
subwoofer will automatically switch off, and
the indicator lamp POWER LED will change
color. When an input signal is detected the
subwoofer will become active and the
indicator lamp POWER LED will glow blue.
Setting volume, frequency and phase
The volume, crossover and phase (controls 4,
5 and 7) as shown on page 4, can be adjusted
on the rear panel, and we recommend that
you adjust the setting of these controls to your
liking – try with different music and films.
