INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
SWA-500M PLACEMENT
The SWA-500M Subwoofer amplifier is designed for home theater and home audio bass
reinforcement. Place the SWA-500M on a sturdy shelf or mount the SWA-500M in a rack using the
included rack ‘ears.’ Make sure that the location you choose can support the weight of the amp.
Like all hi-fi components, the SWA-500M should have proper ventilation, and the ventilation slots
in the amp’s cover should not be obstructed.
When rack mounting the amplifier, ensure good airflow and adequate ventilation (3.5” minimum
open space) around the unit. If you are placing the SWA-500M inside a cabinet, be sure that
the rear of the cabinet is open to fresh air for proper cooling. If you are not rack mounting this
amplifier, make sure that it is placed on a flat level surface. Never block the amplifier’s ventilation
slots or expose the amplifier to moisture or heat sources.
