Run In Procedure
VIBE recommends that you follow the run in procedure for the subwoofer detailed below.
When your subwoofer is used for the rst time, like most brand new items it is naturally
very stiff and rigid. It will take time for the moving parts of this subwoofer to loosen up
before the subwoofer will be ready to deliver its full potential.
For the rst 30 hours it is recommended that you play the subwoofer at low to medium
volumes, gradually increasing the volume level as time progresses. As a guide, if you
listen to your subwoofer for one hour every day it will take a month for the subwoofer to
run in properly.
You will notice a big change in the sound of the subwoofer over this period. As the spider
and surround begin to run in, the sound will get deeper and harder, also the output of the
subwoofer will increase as the suspension loosens up.
The subwoofer is like your car’s engine, it needs a few thousand miles before you can
drive it to its full potential. Driving it into the redline from the rst day will mean engine
damage is certain and will not be covered by warranty.
Failure to follow this simple procedure is the most common reason for a subwoofer to fail
after a very short period of time.
