from 90Hz to 120Hz, for the bookshelf speakers
70Hz to 90Hz and for the large floorstanding
speakers 40Hz to 70Hz. The Bypass position should
be used when connecting to a receiver with bass
management (such as in a digital surround sound
movie system). This connection defeats the
crossover feature on the MIRAGE subwoofer,
allowing this control to be handled by the receiver.
4 Adjust the
t
PHASE CONTROL so that the
subwoofer integrates fully with the rest of your
audio system. This control ensures that the
subwoofer operates in phase with the rest of the
system, as an out of phase subwoofer will either
sound like it is lacking in bass performance or that
its timing is off. This setting will be determined by
your listening position, the characteristics of your
listening room and its interaction with your
MIRAGE subwoofer. An out of phase speaker
means that the speaker cone is moving inwards
when it should be moving outwards, like the other
speakers in your system, causing cancellations of
certain frequencies. By adjusting the phase control,
one can ensure that all speakers move in the
proper direction, at the same time.
5 Steps 2, 3 and 4 might require repeating in order
to fine tune your system. Ensuring the proper
blending between the speakers and the subwoofer
is critical to the performance of your system, as a
whole.
