Subwoofer Level

Balances the subwoofer output level to your speakers.

Subwoofer Cut-Off Frequency with Bypass Option

Controls the subwoofer’s upper-frequency cut-off. This can be set to

match the low-frequency roll-off characteristics of your front speakers.

For example, if your front speakers play to approximately 80 Hz, you can

set the subwoofer cut-off frequency to approximately 80 Hz.

Bypass option allows you to bypass the subwoofer’s built-in cut-

off control to let your preamp/processor’s or receiver’s internal bass

management system provide the crossover function.

Status LED

(wireless models only)

Indicates connection status between wireless subwoofer and

transmitter (e.g. Not Paired, Searching for Connection, Paired).

For additional information see text section ‘Pairing Your Wireless

Subwoofer with the Transmitter.’

Pair

(wireless models only)

This feature initiates wireless pairing between your wireless subwoofer

and the transmitter.

Phase Alignment Switch (0 or 180°)

The sound from your subwoofer may arrive at the listening position out

of phase with the front speakers. This switch synchronizes the

subwoofer and the front speakers through their frequency overlap region.

When the toggle switch is in the ‘On’ position, your subwoofer remains

continuously on.

Auto

This mode eliminates the need to repeatedly switch your subwoofer on

and off — it will turn on when it receives an input signal. If no signal is

sensed for a period of time, it will automatically switch to standby.

Standby

In this mode your subwoofer remains on standby. This uses very little

power — the wired subwoofer uses less than 0.5 watts and the

wireless model less than 1 watt.

Line-Level Input

Allows connection from the Sub/LFE Output of an A/V receiver, processor

or other suitable low-level source.

Step 4

Back Panel of Subwoofer

YOUR NEW SUBWOOFER

The ‘Watts’ (W) rating indicated on the back panel of your subwoofer is

the typical AC power the unit will consume when producing its

maximum power output. However, the actual wattage consumption will

vary with the bass content of the program material.

POWER REQUIREMENTS

Break-In

Although your Paradigm subwoofer will sound great ‘out of the carton’ it will

sound even better when broken in. Allow it to operate for several hours before

you listen critically.

Cleaning

Do not use a strong or abrasive cleaner on your subwoofer. Clean it with

a damp soft cloth, but do not get it wet. Do not place wet objects, such as

drinking glasses or potted plants, on top of it. If allowed to soak in, even

a small amount of water may permanently damage the enclosure.

You are about to experience the powerful and extremely accurate deep bass

performance of Paradigm subwoofers. They offer incredible output with low

distortion, exceptional extension and superb definition. It is important to

note, however, that just as the amount of soft furnishings has a decided

impact on mid and high frequencies, those frequencies below 150 Hz are

dramatically affected by the room itself—its size, shape, as well as the

physical boundaries of the room. The extra care you take in correctly

positioning your subwoofer(s) will result in greater listening enjoyment. Keep

the following guidelines in mind when deciding on best subwoofer placement:

• Concrete floors and walls tend to aggravate low-frequency standing

wave problems and are less preferred.

• Rooms where height, width and length are similar should be avoided as

they can exhibit significant low-frequency standing wave problems. This

may result in reduced clarity. If no other room is possible, experiment

with subwoofer placement to minimize acoustic problems.

ROOM ACOUSTICS

SUBWOOFER PLACEMENT

To avoid personal injury, install subwoofer in a location

where any rear amplifier parts such as panels and/or

heatsinks, etc. cannot be accidentally touched.

Bass is less and less directional as it goes down in frequency. For best sonic

integration, locating your subwoofer between your front speakers or beside

one of them and close to the back wall will usually provide the best bass

performance. If this location is not possible your subwoofer may be placed

anywhere in the room without affecting the stereo image of your front

speakers or the soundstage of your multichannel speaker system.

Fig. 1a and Fig. 1b highlight how bass output is generally affected by room

placement. When seated in a typical listening area of your room, placing the

subwoofer inside the ‘shaded’ areas will typically result in bass performance

as follows:

Fig. 1a

Corner placement provides the most bass, but sometimes at the

expense of accuracy.

Fig. 1b

A subwoofer placed near a wall usually provides a good balance of

quantity and accuracy.

Controls are provided to align your subwoofer’s output with that of the other

speakers in your system, see later section on ‘Fine Tuning.’

Although a single Paradigm subwoofer provides exceptional performance

and substantial output, the quality (and quantity) of bass can be further

improved with the use of two subwoofers (Fig. 2)

This allows you to

randomize the standing waves within your listening room so that bass will

be distributed in a more uniform manner. Two subwoofers also provide even

lower distortion, especially at high output levels.

Wireless Subwoofers

Keep in mind that when using two wireless PDR-W100 subwoofers, one

wireless transmitter is required per subwoofer.

(See Dealer for connection instructions using multiple subwoofers.)

THE ADVANTAGES OF USING TWO SUBWOOFERS

When using two subwoofers, placing one in the front of the room and the other

in the rear of the room (as shown in Fig. 2) usually provides the best bass

performance and sonic integration. Consult the fine tuning section of the Owner’s

Manual for more information on adjusting phase settings. If those locations

are not possible or if you want to experiment with placement options using two

subwoofers, the following procedure will be a helpful guide to achieving better

bass performance. Refer to the section on ‘Subwoofer Connection,’ then

proceed as follows:

1. Temporarily turn all speakers off (either by turning your amplifier off or

disconnecting them);

2. Connect and place one subwoofer in the central area of your listening room.

Follow directions for connection, as outlined in the appropriate section;

3. At a moderately loud level, play music or a video soundtrack with extended

bass that is repetitive or continuous;

4. Walk around your room and note where the bass sounds louder and where

it sounds quieter;

5. Place the first subwoofer within a louder bass area of your room; then

place the second subwoofer within a quieter bass area of your room;

6. Connect both subwoofers and switch all speakers back on; switch the

amplifier on, or reconnect it;

7. Follow the ‘Fine Tuning’ instructions later in this manual, to optimize your

system’s overall bass performance.

USING TWO SUBWOOFERS IN YOUR LISTENING ROOM

‘PAIRING’ YOUR WIRELESS SUBWOOFER WITH THE TRANSMITTER

WIRELESS OPERATION

NOTE: The preceding is only a guideline. You may want to use a bass test

disc and SPL meter to more accurately determine the bass characteristics of

your listening room

(see Dealer for more information)

. Remember that room

acoustics vary so it may take some experimenting with placement to achieve

the best subwoofer performance.

Subwoofer placement plays a major role in optimizing bass performance.

However, placement can impose the inconvenience, not to mention the

unsightliness, of running long lengths of cable through walls, along

baseboards and under floors and carpets. Going wireless means you no

longer have to worry about placement while cable clutter becomes a thing

of the past. Actual system setup time is often drastically reduced with the

wireless option.

Transmitter Operation

In a typical listening room your new wireless transmitter has a maximum

range of 50’ (15 m). Obstructions such as walls, large pieces of furniture, room

dividers, etc., may reduce transmitter range. Do not place subwoofer and

transmitter farther apart than the recommended range. We do not recommend

installing your transmitter in another room. The transmitter’s compact

dimensions allow it to fit neatly into a standard audio/video rack.

Your wireless transmitter features a 2.4 GHz uncompressed digital self-

sensing design that will automatically adjust for the best wireless

connection while monitoring the integrity of the data stream.

An RCA audio cable is required

(not included)

to connect the transmitter to

your A/V receiver or preamplifier.

(See Dealer for cable recommendations.)

One transmitter is required for each wireless subwoofer in operation.

WARNING: To prevent signal dropouts or interference, keep the

transmitter well out of range of a microwave oven, mobile telephone

or Bluetooth device operating on the same frequency.

IMPORTANT! The transmitter that is included with your wireless-ready

Paradigm PDR subwoofer is not compatible with any other subwoofer brand.

Before connecting your new subwoofer, you must establish a permanent

connection between the transmitter and subwoofer by ‘pairing’ the two.

See below for more details …

1. Plug subwoofer into wall

(not shown)

and using the toggle switch on the

back panel, turn it on (ON or AUTO setting). Wait for the back-panel

‘STATUS’ LED to flash Red slowly.

2. Plug transmitter into wall, the LED will also flash Red slowly.

3. Press and hold ‘Pair’ button on transmitter for 3 to 5 seconds until the

transmitter’s front-panel LED begins to flash Red quickly. Release button.

4. Press and release ‘Pair’ button on back panel of subwoofer.

Permanent connection has been established when LEDs on both

transmitter and subwoofer glow solid Red. Typically, the pairing process is

permanent.

If for some reason you do have to ‘pair’ transmitter and subwoofer again,

simply follow this 4-step process.

If you are are not using a wireless option on your subwoofer

(selected models only)

SAFETY PRECAUTION: Before proceeding with this

section be sure to read and follow all safety precaution

and instruction notices at the beginning of this manual.

Turn all components OFF before connecting

the subwoofer.

We recommend the use of high-quality cables and connectors when hooking

up your subwoofer

(see Dealer for more information)

FINE TUNING

Once you have the rest of your speakers positioned in the room and have

set speaker distances and calibrated speaker levels with your Processor

or A/V Receiver, it’s time for a little fine tuning of the subwoofer(s).

Subwoofer Controls

When setting the subwoofer controls use music and video soundtracks

that you know well. They should contain selections with extended bass

that is continuous and repetitive. When you are adjusting your subwoofer,

remember: Bass should not be overbearing—the subwoofer should not

draw attention to itself—but sound shouldn’t be ‘thin’ or difficult to hear.

Certain subwoofer placement may result in bass frequency cancellations—

this occurs when your front speakers and subwoofer are ‘out-of-phase’, in

other words, they work against each other through the crossover region.

This will result in bass being reduced. If bass sounds weak or dislocated

adjust the phase according to the instructions that apply to your subwoofer

in the setup procedures that follow.

Before connecting your wired subwoofer, please read this section

to determine which setup option best suits your needs.

(See Dealer

if you require additional information.)

Before connecting your wireless transmitter to receiver or preamp/

processor, ensure you have “paired” subwoofer and transmitter,

(refer back to previous section).

1. Turn the Subwoofer Level control completely counter-clockwise to

its minimum;

2. Turn the Subwoofer Cut-Off Frequency control to ’Bypass’;

3. Set the Phase Switch to 0°;

NOTE: When using receivers with Automatic Level and Crossover

setting systems such as Anthem’s ARC system, the Volume Level

should be set to ‘Detent’ (center), Phase should be set to ‘0’ and

Crossover set to ‘Bypass,’ then skip the next four steps.

4. While you listen to a selection in your primary listening area, have an

assistant turn up the Subwoofer Level control until the subwoofer

can be clearly heard;

5. Have your assistant try the Phase Control Switch in both positions

until you determine which one delivers the most bass. Your subwoofer

and front speakers are now ‘in phase.’ Do not change phase switch again

unless you move your subwoofer or front speakers;

6. Turn the Subwoofer Level control completely counter-clockwise to

its minimum;

7. Turn the Subwoofer Cut-Off Frequency control completely counter-

clockwise to 50 Hz;

8. Slowly rotate the Subwoofer Level control until you match the

subwoofer output level with the level of your front speakers. Bass

should be clearly audible, but not intrusive;

9. Slowly rotate the Subwoofer Cut-Off Frequency control until you

hear the best subwoofer/main speaker blend. If the sound is too ‘thin,’

you have not set the frequency high enough; if the sound becomes

‘boomy’ you have set the frequency too high. Adjust until you find the

most natural balance.

Subwoofer Level (Niveau caisson de sous-graves)

Équilibre le niveau de sortie du caisson de sous-graves vers vos enceintes.

Subwoofer Cut-Off Frequency with Bypass Option

(Fréquence de coupure du caisson de sous-graves avec

option de contournement)

Commande la fréquence de coupure supérieure du caisson de sous-

graves. Elle peut être réglée pour correspondre aux caractéristiques

Peut être réglée en fonction des caractéristiques d’atténuation des

graves des enceintes avant. Par exemple, si les enceintes avant

reproduisent les fréquences jusqu’à 80 Hz environ, la fréquence de

coupure du caisson de sous-graves peut être réglée à environ 80 Hz.

L’option de contournement vous permet de contourner la

commande de coupure intégrée du caisson de sous-graves afin de permettre

au système de gestion des graves interne de votre préamplificateur/

processeur ou récepteur de fournir la fonction de raccord

Status LED (DEL de statut)

(modèles sans fil uniquement)

Indique le statut de la connexion entre le caisson de sous-graves sans fil

et le transmetteur (p. ex. : non jumelés, recherche de connexion, jumelés).

Pour obtenir des renseignements supplémentaires, consultez la section

« Jumeler le caisson de sous-graves sans fil au transmetteur ».

Pair (Jumelage)

(modèles sans fil uniquement)

Cette caractéristique lance le jumelage sans fil entre votre nouveau

caisson de sous-graves et le transmetteur.

Phase Alignment Switch (Interrupteur de mise en

phase) (0 ou 180°)

Le son produit par le caisson de sous-graves parvenant à l’aire d’écoute

peut être déphasé par rapport au son émanant des enceintes avant.

Cette commande synchronise le caisson et les enceintes dans la bande

de fréquences qu’ils ont en commun.

On (Allumé)

Lorsque l’interrupteur à bascule est en position « On » (allumé), le caisson

de sous-graves reste continuellement allumé.

Auto

Ce mode fait en sorte qu’il n’est plus nécessaire de fermer et d’ouvrir

le caisson de sous-graves à répétition — il s’allumera lorsqu’il reçoit un

signal d’entrée. Si aucun signal n’est capté, il basculera automatiquement

en mode veille.

Standby (Veille)

Dans ce mode, le caisson de sous-graves reste en mode veille. Ce mode

utilise très peu d’énergie — le caisson de sous-graves câblé utilise

moins de 0,5 watt et le modèle sans fil, moins de 1 watt.

Line-level Input (Entrée niveau de ligne)

Permet le raccord à partir de la sortie Sub/LFE d’un récepteur A/V, d’un

processeur ou de toute autre source de bas niveau appropriée.
