Remove the fuse.

Change the fuse. The replacement fuse should comply with the values

stated on the subwoofer.

POSITIONING

4.1.

Subwoofer Positioning
Ideally, there should be no objects or obstacles between the subwoofer

and the listening position. We recommend to keep a distance of at least

0.5 m (19 inches) to the walls, in order to avoid low frequency boosting.

4.2.

Height and Distance
Your EVE Audio subwoofer should be placed on the floor. The surface

where it stands ought to be as firm and stable as possible, in order to

prevent surface vibrations from generating unwanted resonances.
The distance from subwoofer to listening spot depends on the position

of the satellites. Ideally, the subwoofer and satellites should be at the

same distance from the listener. In a 2.1 system the subwoofer ought to

be placed between both satellites (see Stereo Setup + Subwoofer). In a 5.1

system the subwoofer ought to be placed between the two front satellites

(see Multichannel Setup).

These values are only meant as a reference and depend a lot on the

characteristics of the room. In live rooms you will be forced to reduce the

distance, while in dead rooms the distance to the loudspeakers can be

larger.

4.3.

Stereo Setup + Subwoofer (2.1)
In such a setup, the subwoofer is fed by the stereo signal source. The

subwoofer filters the low frequency components of the stereo channels

and sums them to produce a mono signal, which it then reproduces. The

high frequencies are forwarded to the full-range satellite speakers.

Refer to the table above to determine the best 2.1 setup for your room.
The so-called “stereo triangle” is the best way to place the satellites in a

stereo setup, i.e. the monitors and the listening position should form an

equilateral triangle. Try the following:

Establish the ideal distance to the listening position.

Place the monitors in such a way that the distance from each other and to

the listening position is the same.

Turn both monitors so that their front panels are pointed towards the

listening position (all angles of the stereo triangle should be 60º).
The subwoofer should be placed on the ground between both satellites.

Considering that low frequencies are omnidirectional, the subwoofer does

not have to be centered exactly between the two satellites. The subwoofer
