FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I place objects on my subwoofer?
We do not recommend placing any items on the subwoofer cabinet
as they may vibrate, causing undesirable noise and possible
damage to the finish. Under no circumstances should any object
containing liquid be placed on the Fathom v2 cabinet.
Is the Fathom v2 magnetically shielded?
Fathom v2 subwoofers are not magnetically shielded. To avoid magnetic
distortion with certain television types, place the Fathom v2 at least 3-4 feet (1 -
1.5m) from your screen. If you notice any discoloration in the picture, try moving
the subwoofer further away until these artifacts disappear.
Will my electric bill be high if I leave the Fathom v2 in "Auto" mode?
When in "Auto" mode, the Fathom v2 amplifier is only powered up when
a significant signal is detected on the inputs. When powered down, only
"housekeeping" circuits remain on, which draw negligible amounts of power
from the wall (less than 5 watts).
Should I unplug my subwoofer during a thunderstorm or extended absence?
YES. You should unplug your Fathom v2 during (or before) thunderstorms. This
will prevent any possible damage from voltage spikes due to lightning. In these
conditions, it's a good idea to unplug all of your audio / video components. If you
are going to be away from home for several days, it is also a good idea to unplug
your home theater components to prevent damage from unexpected storms or
power line conditions.
CLEANING YOUR FATHOM v2
Dust your Fathom v2's subwoofer cabinet using a clean, soft microfiber cloth
or feather duster. Microfiber cloths are commonly available where automotive
detailing supplies are sold.
Light smudges can generally be wiped off with a clean microfiber cloth. For more
stubborn smudges, polish and protect the finish using a high-quality automotive
wax and a microfiber cloth, both available wherever automotive detailing supplies
are sold. We recommend Meguiar's® "NXT Tech Wax" and Meguiar's® Microfiber
Detailing cloths.
Never use a polish that contains harsh solvents or abrasives as these may
permanently damage the finish. Never use furniture polish or any oil-based
product on your Fathom v2. Never use solvents or aggressive cleaning agents on
your Fathom v2. When in doubt, test the cleaning product on the underside of
the cabinet and let it sit for several days before committing to its use on visible
portions of the cabinet.
