•
Function/signal generator/sweep generator
•
Integrated Amplifier
•
Multimeter
•
Speaker cables
General Unit Function (UUT = Unit Under Test)
1) From the signal generator, connect one line level (RCA) cable to the Subwoofer Line Level Input jacks
L/R on the UUT. Use a Y-cable from a mono source if necessary to connect to both inputs. Do not
connect to the single SUB input.
connect to the single SUB input.
2) On the front of the unit, turn the LEVEL control full counterclockwise.
3) Turn on generator, adjust to 100mV, 50 Hz.

7) Connect one pair of speaker cables to Speaker Level input terminal (IN) on UUT. Cables should be
connected to an integrated amplifier fed by the signal generator.
8) Turn on generator and adjust so that speaker level input at the amplifier is 2.0V, 50 Hz. Turn LEVEL
control full clockwise.
9) Green LED should light, immediate bass response should be heard and felt from the port tube opening.
Sweep Function
1) Follow steps 7-9 above, using a sweep generator as a signal source.

3) Connect a pair of speaker cables to driver terminals. Cables should be connected to an integrated
amplifier fed by a signal generator. Turn on generator and adjust so that speaker level output is 5.0V.
4) Sweep generator from 20Hz to 1kHz. Listen to driver for any rubbing, buzzing, or other unusual noises.
