PRO SWS-502 Satellite Subwoofer Speaker System  
Your Optimus PRO SWS-502 Satellite  
Subwoofer Speaker System is designed  
to add the dramatic realism of solid bass  
(below 200 Hz) to your sound system.  
While the satellite speakers reproduce the  
high, midrange, and upper-bass frequen-  
cies, the subwoofer’s bass reflex design  
provides a clean response in the crucial  
bottom octave of the audible range. This  
results in heightened presence and clarity  
for the entire audio range.  
The subwoofer’s low-bass sounds are  
produced by a down-firing 10-inch driver  
with a 11/2-inch dual-voice coil. Each sat-  
ellite speaker has a 31/2-inch woofer with  
1
a /2-inch liquid cooled soft-dome tweeter  
in a separate enclosure that swivels so  
you can adjust it for the best stereo imag-  
ing.  
SPEAKER PLACEMENT  
Location and position are vital for the best  
sound performance of your satellite  
Choosing a Location for the  
Satellites  
speakers. For the best stereo image, the  
distance between the speakers should be  
about the same as the distance from the  
main listening area to a point halfway be-  
tween the speakers.  
If you place the speakers too far apart,  
you might hear a “hole” in the center of the  
sound. Compensate for this by angling the  
speakers slightly in toward the listening  
area.  
If you place the speakers too close togeth-  
er, you will cancel out the stereo image.  
Compensate for this by angling the speak-  
ers slightly away from the listening area.

To help you make the proper connec-  
tions, one side of each pair of speaker  
wire conductors is marked with a stripe or  
groove, normally considered the positive  
(+) polarity wire.  
Note: You can use the H/L (high/low)  
switch on the back of each satellite to ad-  
just the tone of the satellites’ tweeters. Set  
H/L to H for a “bright” sound, or L for a “flat”  
sound.  
Note: The insulation in some speaker  
wires is clear, and the separate conduc-  
tors are brass and silver. Use the brass  
wire as the positive (+) polarity wire.  
CARE AND  
MAINTENANCE  
Your Optimus PRO SWS-502 Satellite  
Subwoofer Speaker System is an exam-  
ple of superior design and craftsmanship.  
The following suggestions will help you  
care for the system, so you can enjoy it for  
years.  
• Handle the system gently and care-  
fully. Dropping it can damage it and  
cause it to work improperly.  
• Keep the system dry. If it gets wet,  
wipe it dry immediately. Liquids con-  
tain minerals that can corrode elec-  
tronic circuits.  
• Wipe the system occasionally with a  
cloth dampened with furniture polish.  
This helps to keep it looking new. Do  
not use harsh chemicals, cleaning  
solvents, or strong detergents to  
clean the speaker cabinet.  
1. Connect your amplifier’s left and  
right OUTPUT speaker terminals to  
the subwoofer’s INPUT terminals.  
2. Connect the left satellite speaker’s  
wires to the subwoofer’s LEFT OUT-  
PUT terminals.  
Caution: You might permanently damage  
your system by cleaning it with a vacuum  
cleaner. Use a feather duster or a very  
soft loose cloth instead.  
3. Connnect  
the  
right  
satellite  
speaker’s wires to the subwoofer’s  
RIGHT OUTPUT terminals.  
Modifying or tampering with the speaker  
system’s internal components can cause  
a malfunction and might invalidate the  
warranty. If the system is not performing  
as it should, take it to your local Radio  
Shack store for assistance.  
Caution: Do not exceed this system’s  
power handling capacity (see “Specifica-  
tions”). To avoid damage to the speaker  
system, set the amplifier’s volume to its  
lowest setting before operating the stereo  
system’s controls.
