provides some suggestions for the "Bass
Roll-Off" switch settings. When both roll-
off switches are set to "OFF", a flat ane-
choic response is obtained.
Setting the phase control
Incorrect phase alignment between main
monitors and subwoofer causes a drop
in the frequency response of the whole
system at the crossover frequency. The
graphs above (Fig. 7) show the effect
of phase difference to the frequency
response.
The phase difference between the main
monitors and subwoofer at the listening
position is dependent upon the position
of the subwoofer, so the phase adjustment
should be done only after the preferred
position is found. Acoustic measuring
equipment is required for accurate system
alignment. If this equipment is not avail-
able, the following coarse phase matching
can be applied.
Coarse phase adjustment
method
Genelec 7073A subwoofer is equipped
with a built-in 85 Hz frequency test tone
generator to accomodate easy phase
alignment. The test tone generator is
connected to the subwoofer's "FRONT
CENTER OUT" channel only. In a stereo
system it is necessary to temporarily
connect either of the channels to this
output.
Power up the system and set the DIP
switches 3 (SUM IN MODE) and 4 (LFE
+10 dB) on the first switch group to "ON"
Now you should hear an 85 Hz test
signal from the subwoofer and the main
monitor connected to the center channel
output.
Toggle the -180° phase
switch (DIP 4 on the second
switch group) on and off,
and set it to the position
which gives the lowest
sound level at the listening position.
Next toggle the -90° phase
switch (DIP 3) on and off,
and again set it to the posi-
tion which gives the lowest
sound level at the listening
position.

Finally, set the -180° phase
switch (DIP 4) to the oppo-
site setting and deactivate
the test signal.
Phase correction method
with test equipment
The following procedure matches the
phase between the subwoofer and the
main monitors using a frequency analyser
and a pink noise generator. Connect a
high grade measuring microphone to the
analyser and feed pink noise into the
"CENTER IN" input of the subwoofer. The
subwoofer's bass management system will
direct the frequencies above 85 Hz to the
center main monitor while the subwoofer
reproduces the frequencies below 85 Hz.
Position the microphone at the listening
position and adjust the input sensitivity of
the subwoofer until frequencies below and
above 85 Hz are reproduced at equal level.
Then adjust the phase control switches for
the maximum dip of at least -6 dB at the
crossover frequency (85 Hz).
Change the -180° switch to the opposite
setting. The phase should now be set cor-
rectly and the frequency analyser should
show a smooth response around 85 Hz.
Overload indicators
The mode indicator LED on the connec-
tor panel will turn from green to yellow to
indicate clipping and then to red to indicate
that the protection circuit has activated. If
this occurs frequently, reduce the input
level to the subwoofer until the LED
remains green.
If the LED on the connector panel is not
easily visible, the optional Remote LED Kit
can be used to bring it into view. The kit
consists of a LED in a compact case and
an RJ11 cable to connect the case and
the "REMOTE" RJ11 connector on the
connector panel.
Subwoofer bypass control
A bypass control feature is included in
the subwoofer circuits so that the effect
of the subwoofer on the whole moni-
