- RCA/LFE Input: For most home theater receivers with a dedicated subwoofer output (LFE or Sub Out), connect an RCA cable from the receiver's subwoofer output to the SMP800's LFE input. If your receiver has stereo RCA outputs, use both L and R inputs on the SMP800.
- Niveau d'entrée du haut-parleur : If your receiver does not have a dedicated subwoofer output, connect speaker wires from your receiver's main speaker outputs to the SMP800's Speaker Level Input terminals.
- Connect Subwoofer Output: Connect the speaker wires from the IWS88 in-wall subwoofer to the SMP800's Subwoofer Speaker Output terminals. Ensure correct polarity (+ to + and - to -).

- Déclencheur 12 V (en option) : If your AV receiver or control system has a 12V trigger output, connect it to the SMP800's 12V Trigger input. This allows the amplifier to power on/off automatically with your main system.
- Connexion électrique : Connect the supplied power cable to the SMP800 amplifier and then to a suitable AC power outlet. Ensure the AC Voltage Selector switch on the amplifier est réglé sur le bon voltage for your region (110-120V or 220-240V).
5. Mode d'emploi
5.1 Mise sous/hors tension
- Alimentation manuelle : Press the power button on the front panel of the SMP800 amplifier to turn it on or off.
- Auto-On Sensing: Si le amplifier's 'MUSIC ON 12V' switch is set to 'MUSIC' and an audio signal is detected on the RCA/LFE or Speaker Level inputs, the amplifier will automatically power on. It will enter standby mode after a period of no audio signal.
- Déclencheur 12V : If connected, the amplifier will power on and off in sync with your main system.
5.2 Adjusting Controls (SMP800)
The SMP800 amplifier features several controls to optimize subwoofer performance:
- Volume/Gain : Adjusts the overall output level of the subwoofer. Start with a low setting and gradually increase until the bass blends well with your main speakers.
- Fréquence de croisement : This control determines the highest frequency the subwoofer will reproduce. Set it to blend seamlessly with your main speakers. A common starting point is 80Hz-100Hz, but adjust based on your main speakers' low-frequency capabilities.
- Contrôle des phases : Adjusts the phase of the subwoofer output (0° or 180°). Experiment with both settings to find the one that provides the most impactful and coherent bass response in your listening position.
