PB10 Subwoofer Controls and their Function
1. Power - These lights will be red when the unit isplugged in and not receiving a signal; when the PB10receives a signal, the lights will cycle to GREEN. If nosignal is received after 10-15 minutes the lights willcycle back to RED (standby) until a signal is presentagain.
2. Level Control - The subwoofer Level Control, PB10,(located on the rear panel) adjusts the volume of thesubwoofer relative to the rest of the system.
3. LFE/Normal Switch - Ordinarily placed in the Normalposition - but switch to LFE when playing DolbyDigitaL, DTS or other digital surround modes - seepage 9.
4. Phase Switch - Changes the subwoofer’s output tobe in phase or 180 degrees out of phase with theprogram material.
5. Crossover Frequency - Sets the highest frequencythe subwoofer will reproduce.
6. Line Input - Main Input connection to subwoofer(preferred).
7. Speaker In Jacks - Main Input connection tosubwoofer when line level, subwoofer, or pre-ampoutput connectors are not available, or when a highpass filter (set at 150Hz to main loudspeakers isdesired through the Speaker Output Jacks.
8. Speaker Out Jacks - Connected to mainloudspeakers when the Speaker Input Jacks are used.

Speaker Connection
When we designed the PB10and PB12 poweredsubwoofers, our goal was tooffer the user the best possibleperformance combined withthe most flexible and completeinstallation options. Pleaselook over the following three
examples to determine whichdescription best matches yoursystem and follow thecorresponding hookupinstructions.
To use the binding-postspeaker terminals with barewire, unscrew the collar until
the hole through thecenterpost is visible under thecollar.
Insert the bare end of the wirethrough the hole in the post,then screw the collar backdown until the connection istight. The holes in the centerof the collars are intended forbanana-type connectors.
Dolby Pro Logic (Non-Digital)-Speaker Level
Use this installation method forDolby Pro Logic applications(not Dolby Digital, DTS orother digital processing),where the receiver/processordoes not have a subwooferoutput or a volume-controlledpreamp (line-) level output:
Connect your receiver oramplifier’s front left and rightspeaker terminals to the leftand right terminals on thesubwoofer that are marked“High Level In.” Connect theleft and right terminals on thesubwoofer that are marked“High Level Out” to thecorresponding terminals on the
back of your front left and rightspeakers.
Connect your receiver oramplifier’s center, left and rightsurround-speaker terminals tothe corresponding terminals onthe back of your center, leftand right surround speakers.

Dolby Pro Logic (Non-Digital)-Line Level
Use this installation method forDolby Pro Logic applications(not Dolby Digital, DTS orother digital processing),where the receiver/processor isequipped with a subwooferoutput or a volume-controlledpreamp (line-) level output:
Use RCA-type patch cords toconnect the line-levelsubwoofer outputs on yourreceiver or amplifier to the line-level inputs on the subwoofer.IMPORTANT: Make sure thatthe LFE toggle switch on thesubwoofer is in the “Normal”position. Do not use the “LFE”
position with Dolby Pro Logic-only processors.
Note: If your receiver oramplifier only has onesubwoofer output jack, thenyou may connect thesubwoofer output on yourreceiver/preamplifier to eitherthe left or right line-level inputon the subwoofer. It makes nodifference which jack youchoose.
Connect each speaker to thecorresponding speakerterminals on your receiver oramplifier.
Make sure your receiver orprocessor is configuredcorrectly; Make sure that thesubwoofer is configured as“On.”
Note for advanced users: Ifyour receiver/processor has abuilt-in low-pass crossoverfilter for the subwoofer output,then the LFE switch should beset to the “LFE” position tobypass the subwoofer’sinternal crossover.

Dolby Digital or DTS (or Other Digital Surround Mode) Connection
Use this installation method forDolby Digital, DTS or otherdigital surround processors:
IMPORTANT: Make sure thatthe LFE toggle switch on thesubwoofer is in the “LFE”position. Use the line-levelinput jacks for the low-Frequency Effects channel.Connect these jacks to the LFEoutput or subwoofer output onyour receiver or amplifier.
Note: If your receiver oramplifier only has onesubwoofer output jack, then
you may connect thesubwoofer output on yourreceiver/preamplifier to eitherthe left or right line-level inputon the subwoofer. It makes nodifference which jack youchoose.
Connect each speaker to thecorresponding speakerterminals on your receiver oramplifier.
Make sure that you haveconfigured your surround-sound processor for“Subwoofer On”or “LFE On.”
The front left, front right, centerand rear speakers should beset to “Small” or “Large”depending on their size andfrequency response. Consultyour receiver’s or processor’sowner’s manual.

OPERATION
Power
When the unit is plugged inand the LEDs on the front ofthe unit will turn red. When asignal is present, the LEDs willturn green.
Note: It will take severalminutes for the LEDs to turn
from green to red after theinput signal to the subwoofer isremoved. Due to JBL’sunique, high-output, high-efficiency amplifier design,power consumption is minimalwhen the subwoofer is notreceiving a signal. The PB10
The subwoofer Level Controladjusts the volume of thesubwoofer relative to the restof the system. Proper leveladjustments depends onseveral variables such as
Level Control
room size, subwooferplacement, type of mainspeakers and listener position.Adjust the subwoofer level sothat the volume of the bassinformation is pleasing to you.
Crossover Adjustments
The Crossover FrequencyControl determines the highestfrequency at which thesubwoofer reproduces sounds.If your main speakers cancomfortably reproduce somelow-frequency sounds, set thiscontrol to a lower frequencysetting, between 50Hz-100Hz.This will concentrate thesubwoofer’s efforts on theultradeep bass sounds requiredby today’s films and music. Ifyou are using smaller bookshelfspeakers that do not extend tothe lower bass frequencies, setthe low-pass crossover controlto a higher setting, between120Hz-150Hz. This control isnot used when the LFE switchis in the “LFE” position.
must be unplugged if you donot wish to leave it in auto(standby) mode.
PB10

Phase Control
The Phase Control determineswhether the subwoofer’spiston-like action moves in andout in phase with the mainspeakers or opposite the mainspeakers. There is no corrector incorrect setting. Properphase adjustment depends onseveral variables such assubwoofer placement andlistener position. Adjust thephase switch to maximize
bass output at the listeningposition.
Remember, every system,room and listener is different.There are no right or wrongsettings; this switch offers theadded flexibility to adjust yoursubwoofer for optimumperformance for your specificlistening conditions withouthaving to move your speakers.
If at some time in the futureyou happen to rearrange yourlistening room and move yourspeakers, you shouldexperiment with the phaseswitch in both positions, andleave it in the position thatmaximizes bass performance.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If you used the high-level(speaker) inputs and there isno sound from any of thespeakers:
•Check that receiver/amplifieris on and source is playing.
•Check that poweredsubwoofer is plugged intoand active electrical outletand is switched on.
•Check all wires andconnections betweenreceiver/amplifier andspeakers. Make sure allwires are connected. Makesure none of the speakerwires are frayed, cut orpunctured.
•Review proper operation ofyour receiver/amplifier.
If there is low (or no) bassoutput:
•Make sure the connections tothe left and right “SpeakerInputs” have the correctpolarity (+and-).
•Make sure that the subwooferis plugged into an activeelectrical outlet and (PB12only) switched on.
•Adjust the crossover point.
•Flip the Phase Control switchto the opposite position.
•If you are using a DolbyDigital/DTS receiver orprocessor, make sure that thesubwoofer adjustments onthe receiver/processor are setup correctly.
•Slowly turn the Level Controlclockwise until you begin tohear the desired amount ofbass.
If you used the line-levelinputs and there is no soundfrom the subwoofer:
•Check that receiver/amplifieris on and a source is playing.
•Check that poweredsubwoofer is plugged into anactive electrical outlet and isswitched on.
•Check all wires andconnections betweenreceiver/amplifier andsubwoofer. Make sure allwires are connected. Makesure none of the wires arefrayed, cut or punctured.
•Review proper operation ofyour receiver/amplifier.
•Slowly turn the Level Controlclockwise until you begin tohear the desired amount ofbass.
•Make sure that you haveconfigured yourreceiver/processor so that thesubwoofer/LFE output is on.
