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.

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.
On
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.

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
8
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

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

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).

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.
