If you are connecting a single subwoofer to
a preamplifier or surround processor with a
dedicated subwoofer output, connect that
balanced output to the appropriate balanced
mono input channel on the C52.
If you are connecting two subwoofers to a
system, connect the left channel output to the
balanced input of the one C52 channel and
the right channel output to the balanced input
of the other C52 channel.

CONFIGURING THE SUBWOOFER
To adjust the C52, remove the smoked acrylic
front panel to access the controls. Replace it
when configuration has been satisfactorily
completed to avoid unintentional adjustment.
Setting the adjustable low-pass filter
Each channel includes a low-pass filter which
can be adjusted between 40Hz and 150Hz, or
disabled using the DEFEAT switch.
If you are connecting the subwoofer to a
digital surround processor that provides its
own crossover, such as a Meridian digital
surround processor, set the low-pass filter
switch to DEFEAT.
If you are connecting the subwoofer to an
analogue preamplifier or surround processor,
set the low-pass filter to the middle of its
range, and then listen to a sweep tone from
the processor if it provides one, or alternatively
from a test disc, and make sure the bass is
smooth throughout the range.
If there is a peak in the bass loudness, the
subwoofer may be adding to the bass from
your main speakers, in which case reduce the
low-pass filter frequency.
Likewise, if there is a dip in the bass loudness,
increase the low-pass filter frequency.
Setting the gain
The GAIN control allows you to adjust the
loudness of the subwoofer to suit the other
components in your system.
For the best signal to noise ratio, adjust the
level of the subwoofer using the level control
on the subwoofer. If you are using a Meridian
Digital Surround Processor, you can then use
theprocessor’scalibrationoptiontone-tune
the subwoofer level if necessary.
