Subwoofer Selection
The recommended subwoofer for a particular system can be found in the document entitled, "K+H Product
Selection Guide". The latest version can be downloaded from www.klein-hummel.com. In general, one should
ensure that the complete system is balanced and appropriate for a particular application, listening distance, and
room size. Larger main loudspeakers, larger rooms, longer listening distances, multichannel systems, and higher
listening levels each require larger subwoofers. In addition, larger or more subwoofers can be run at lower levels
resulting in lower distortion and a cleaner low frequency reproduction.
The 7.1 High Definition Bass Manager™ is compatible with the following formats:
• 7.1, 7.0 HD (Blu-ray, video gaming)
• 7.1 Theatrical (5 front channels)
• 6.1, 6.0 (DVD, DVD Audio, SACD)
• 5.1, with an additional 2.0 two-channel stereo system
• 5.1, 5.0 (DVD, multichannel CD, HDTV, video gaming)
• 3/1.0 (LCRS)
• 2.0 (two-channel stereo reproduced with or without a subwoofer)
• 1.0 (mono)
Multichannel audio systems with more channels can be constructed using multiple subwoofers.
