Get Calibrated
Set the PB17-Ultra R|Evolution volume to -10dB on the App or via the rear panel, then run auto-set-up in the AV receiver/processor. It is important to re-run your receiver's calibration set-up if you are upgrading from another subwoofer and
each time you move the subwoofer.

AUTO EQ - START

If your set-up doesn't include an Auto-EQ feature, adjust the subwoofer volume control to level-match to your loudspeakers.

2 SetItUp

The location of your subwoofer in the listening environment can affect its performance. If possible, start with corner placement on the same wall as the front speakers, or anywhere along the front stage in between or outside of your main speakers.

Corner Placement: offers huge impact and reduces the potential to encounter bass nulls, or `dead spots'. If "boominess" occurs, you can try pulling it away from the wall and using the DSP tuning controls to smooth performance.

Front Placement: In between or to the side of the front channel speakers often results in the best blending with the main speakers and center channel and minimizes localization effects.

Side Wall Placement: Side wall placement is less frequently used but can be an effective subwoofer location for excellent accuracy and output.

Hook It Up

For most set-ups, a single RCA subwoofer interconnect cable running from the AV Receiver's "SUB 1" output to the PB17-Ultra R|Evolution's "LFE" line level input is all that's required to connect the subwoofer into your system. If you run separate Preamplifier and Power Amplifiers, follow the "Line Level Connection ­ Stereo Receiver or Preamplifier Left/Right Channels" connection guide below.
