Quick Start Guide

SAT SUB Subwoofer Installation
1. WARNING: To avoid potential damage to your amplier or loudspeaker, ensure that the amplier is switched
OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting any cables.
2. The procedure below describes the installation of the SAT SUB subwoofer into a typical stud wall with
drywall/plasterboard.
3. Locate a suitable mounting position for the SAT SUB subwoofer within the room, that is practical and will
give good audio performance. You can try connecting and operating the system with the SAT SUB located in
various room positions to nd the best performance.
4. Use a stud-nder to locate a suitable nearby stud and mark this position. WARNING: Make sure that there
are no power lines, other cables, or plumbing such as water, sewer, gas lines in the chosen location.
5. The SAT SUB mounting bracket should be mounted to a stud. The screws must be long enough to enter into
the wood and make a secure and safe mounting position. Make sure that the center top and center bottom
mounting holes are used to attach to the stud. Check that the plate is level (and the right way up).
6. For the other mounting holes not over a stud, suitable screws and wall plugs must be used to make a secure
and safe mounting position. All mounting holes must be used. Consult the relevant construction codes in
your region.

• All 6 mounting holes are used
• Center the mounting plate over the stud
• Wall plugs are used when not over the stud
7. If the mounting bracket is to be mounted to drywall (not over a stud), or on a solid masonary wall, then
suitable screws and wall plugs must be used to make a secure and safe mounting position. Consult the
relevant construction codes in your region.
8. Run the speaker wire from your amplier to this location, leaving enough slack to allow for the connection.
Follow the information on the previous pages to connect the speaker wires from your power amplier to
the Euroblock connector.
9. If it will be some time before the SAT SUB subwoofer is installed, cover the mounting bracket and any
wiring to prevent any dust, moisture, or paint from entering.
10. The SAT SUB subwoofer is provided with an attachment point for a secondary safety cable. This will reduce
the chance of the SAT SUB from coming o the wall during an earthquake. Connect up your safety cable to
the SAT SUB before mounting it to the wall.
Terminal Connections
1. WARNING: To avoid potential damage to your amplier or loudspeaker, ensure that the amplier is switched
OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting any cables.
2. Before switching the amplier ON, double check that all connections are secure and that the polarity is
correct, and check that the Tap Selector switch on the subwoofer is set correctly to match your power
amplier.

3. The speaker wires are attached to the screw terminals of Euroblock connectors, and not to the subwoofer
and satellite loudspeakers.
4. The mounting brackets of the subwoofer and satellite speakers can be preinstalled and the Euroblock
connectors wired up, and the subwoofer and satellite speakers added at a later stage.
5. The two screw terminals of the Euroblock connectors are marked positive (+) and negative (-).
6. Strip o approximately 8 mm (1/4") of the outer protective layer of one conductor and twist its inner cores
together to prevent shorting from stray wires. Insert the core into the screw terminal of the Euroblock
connector, while ensuring that correct polarity is maintained. Repeat this for both speaker wires. Gently
pull on the wires to verify they are making a secure connection.
