HKTS 210 SUB/HKTS 200 SUB Subwoofer Rear-Panel Controls

and Placing the Subwoofer

Phase switch: This switch determines whether the subwoofer transducer’s piston-like

action moves in and out in phase with the satellite speakers. If the subwoofer were to

play out of phase with the satellite speakers, the sound waves from the satellites could

cancel out some of the subwoofer’s sound waves, reducing bass performance and sonic

impact. This phenomenon depends in part on the placement of all the speakers in the

room. In most cases, the Phase switch should be left in the “Normal” position. However,

it does no harm to experiment, and you can leave the Phase switch in the position that

maximizes bass response and impact.

Bass Boost switch: Set this switch to “On” to enhance the subwoofer’s low-frequency

performance. Set this switch to “Off” for normal low-frequency performance.

Power On Mode switch: When this switch is set in the “Auto” position and when the

Power switch is set to “On,” the subwoofer will automatically turn itself on when it

receives an audio signal and will enter the standby mode after it has received no audio

signal for about 15 minutes. When this switch is set in the “On” position, the subwoofer

will remain on whether or not it is receiving an audio signal. An LED on the subwoofer’s

top panel indicates whether the subwoofer is in the on or standby state:

• When the LED glows white, the subwoofer is turned on.

• When the LED is not illuminated, the subwoofer is in the standby mode. When the

Power switch is set to “Off,” the LED will not be illuminated, no matter what setting

the Power On Mode switch is in.

Subwoofer Level control: Use this control to adjust the subwoofer’s volume. Turn

clockwise to increase the volume; turn counterclockwise to decrease the volume.

Input Mode switch (HKTS 210 SUB only): When this switch is in the “Normal” setting,

the input signal from the Line-Level L/R In connectors is active. When this switch is in

the “LFE” setting, the input signal from the Line-Level LFE In connector is active.

External Trigger Input connector: Use the mini plug of the supplied combination LFE

and trigger cable to connect the External Trigger Input connector to the trigger output

of another compatible component. Whenever the subwoofer detects a trigger signal

between 3V and 30V (AC or DC), its ampliﬁer will turn on. The ampliﬁer will turn off after

the trigger signal ceases, even when the Power On Mode switch is in the “Auto” position.

Line-Level LFE In connector: The signal from this connector bypasses the subwoofer’s

internal low-pass crossover. When you’re connecting the subwoofer to the dedicated

subwoofer output of a receiver/processor that has its own low-pass crossover network,

use the Line-Level LFE In connector. HKTS 210 SUB only: You must also set the

subwoofer’s Input Mode switch in the “LFE” position.

Line-Level L/R In connectors: The signals from these connectors pass through the

subwoofer’s internal low-pass crossover. When you’re connecting the subwoofer to the

preamp or subwoofer outputs of a receiver/processor that does not have its own low-

pass crossover network, use both Line-Level L/R In connectors. HKTS 210 SUB only:

You must also set the Input Mode switch in the “Normal” position. If your receiver/

processor has only one subwoofer output, you can use either the L or R connector.

Power switch: Set this switch in the “On” position to turn the subwoofer on. The

subwoofer will then be either on or in the standby mode, depending on the setting of the

Power On Mode switch.

Power Cord (non-detachable): After you have made and veriﬁed all the connections

described in this manual, plug this cord into an active, unswitched electrical outlet for

proper operation of the subwoofer. DO NOT plug this cord into the accessory outlets

found in some audio components.

Placing the Subwoofer

The performance of a subwoofer is directly related to its placement in the listening room

and its physical position relative to the other speakers in the system.

While it is true that in general our ears do not hear directional sounds at the low

frequencies where subwoofers operate, when installing a subwoofer within the limited

conﬁnes of a room, the reﬂections, standing waves and absorptions generated within

the room will strongly inﬂuence the performance of any subwoofer system. As a result,

the speciﬁc location of the subwoofer in the room does become important to the amount

and quality of bass that is produced.

For example, placing the subwoofer next to a wall generally will increase the amount of

bass in the room; placing it in a corner (1) generally will maximize amount of bass in the

room. However, corner placement can also increase the destructive effect of standing

waves on bass performance. This effect can vary depending on the listening position –

some listening positions may yield very good results while others may have far too much

(or too little) bass at certain frequencies.

In many rooms, placing the subwoofer along the same plane as the left and right

speakers (2) can produce the best integration between the sound of the subwoofer and

that of the left and right speakers. In some rooms, the best performance could even

result from placing the subwoofer behind the listening position (3).

We strongly recommend that you experiment with placement before choosing a ﬁnal

location for your subwoofer. One way you can determine the best location for the

subwoofer is by temporarily placing it in the listening position and playing music with

strong bass content. Move around to various locations in the room while the system

is playing (putting your ears where the subwoofer would be placed), and listen until

you ﬁnd the location where the bass performance is best. Place the subwoofer in that

location.
