Night mode limits the maximum output of the subwoofer for late night listening or to be more
considerate of close neighbors. Press the NIGHT button to turn the night mode feature on or
off. Engaging the night mode causes the LED lights to burn less brightly. Night mode does not
universally diminish the volume, rather, on louder passages, the maximum output of the unit is
limited. It may be that you will hear little or no difference in the output of the woofer when night
mode is activated. However, when an explosion or other loud transient is played, you should
notice less ouput.
VOLUME Control
This control allows you to balance the output from the subwoofer to the main speakers in your
system. This control should be set to achieve similar volume level from between both the main
speakers and subwoofer. When pressing volume up or down, the speed at which the power light
blinks indicates subwoofer volume - the faster the blinking, the louder the unit plays. After the
volume is changed (up or down), there will also be two sets of center LED blinks. Slower blinks
represent tens and faster blinks represent ones. If the LED blinks three times, pauses, then blinks
six times, this means that the volume is set at 36. The volume range is from 1 to 99.
