A subwoofer is there to enhance bass, extending the response of the entire system so that bass can be felt as well as heard. Auto-On Signal Sensing The Oreus Subwoofer incorporates automatic signal-sensing circuitry which turns the subwoofer on instantly when an audio signal is present. When a signal has not been detected for approximately 1. 5 minutes, the subwoofer automatically goes into standby mode. 8 ACOUSTIC FEEDBACK If the bass seems boomy, or you notice a rumbling sound when listening to record albums, the cause may be acoustic feedback. This means that low-frequency vibrations from your speakers are reaching the turntable. To help isolate the turntable from these vibrations, place the turntable on a heavy, solid support, as far away as possible from the subwoofer. If you continue to experience difficulties after experimenting with placement, consult your Infinity dealer.
