FAQS
How do I connect my Bauhn wireless subwoofer?
Flick the power button on the subwoofer on and the connection indicator will light up red, meaning it is currently on standby mode and/or not connected. Turn on the soundbar and it will automatically start pairing with the subwoofer. The connection indicator will light up blue once connected.
Where should I place my wireless subwoofer?
Subwoofers should be placed in a corner or against a wall where the sound can bounce off of. It can be either at the front or back depending on space. I have mine set-up next to my sofa so it bounces off the wall and I also get more of the bass since it’s closer to where I am sitting.
How does wireless subwoofer works?
In wireless subwoofers, the signal is transmitted from the A/V receiver via radio signal. This means, of course, that the A/V receiver must possess a radio transmitter to send the audio signal to the wireless subwoofer’s receiver. This more-or-less works like a cordless phone which receives signals from its base.
How to charge a Bauhn speaker?
Charging: plug in the supplied power adaptor to the DC IN port to charge the speaker for 5-6 hours before use. During charging, the charging status indicator on the back of the speaker will flash blue. Once fully charged, the indicator will light up green.
What are the disadvantages of a subwoofer?
Subwoofers can be bulky, requiring significant space in your listening area. Reduced Distortion: Lowers distortion by offloading low-frequency tasks from the main speakers. Integration. Achieving acoustic harmony with existing speakers can be complex.
What makes a subwoofer stronger?
The power is determined by the wattage of the subwoofer in question, where a higher wattage demonstrates a more powerful subwoofer.
