LFM Series
Low Frequency Modules
Congratulations on the purchase of an Outlaw Audio LFM Low Frequency Module,
you now own one of the finest subwoofers available. The LFM series subwoofers
provide deep, tight, bass extension that’s powerful enough to meet the most de-
manding requirements of any movie or musical source. The LFM series subwoofers
blend effortlessly with both small satellite speakers and large tower speakers alike.
This seamless integration is made possible by a flexible crossover network, which
may also be disengaged for use with advanced bass-management systems.
Among the LFM’s many features are:
A down firing design that virtually eliminates audible port noise
A long throw 10" (LFM-1 Compact) and 8" (LFM-2) driver for deep
bass extension
A powerful BASH¨ amplifier (LFM-1 Compact: 225-watts and
LFM-2: 150-watts) for precise driver control
Signal Sense for automatic turn on/off
180-degree phase control
Line and speaker level inputs
Detachable power cord
Unpacking
The carton and packing materials used in shipping your new subwoofer were
specially designed to cushion it from the shocks and vibrations of shipping. We
strongly suggest that you save the carton and packing materials to use if you move,
or if the unit ever needs to be shipped back to us for any reason.
To minimize the size of the carton in storage, you may wish to flatten it by carefully
opening the top and bottom flaps and folding the carton. Packing materials that
cannot be collapsed should be saved along with the carton in a plastic bag.
Accessories
After unpacking your LFM series subwoofer please confirm that the following
accessories have been included.
AC Power Cord
4 Black (Metal) Carpet Spikes
4 Black (Metal) Dimpled Discs
