Introduction

Congratulations! You have invested in one of the
world's premier subwoofers.
The MartinLogan Dynamo 1000W and 700W
subwoofers represent the extension of an intensive,
dedicated team research program directed toward estab-
lishing a world class line of reference subwoofers using
leading-edge technology, without compromising durabil-
ity, reliability, craftsmanship or aesthetics.
These subwoofers use high-excursion drivers to achieve
deep, tight, well-defined bass. A proprietary amplifier is
used to drive the output stage with precision and extremely
high efficiency. Low-pass filtering and phase control have
been designed to make integrating the Dynamo 1000W
and Dynamo 700W subwoofers with MartinLogan and
non-MartinLogan products both seamless and simple.
The materials in your new subwoofer are of the highest
quality and will provide years of enduring enjoyment and
deepening respect. The cabinet is constructed from the
finest composite material for acoustical integrity and is fin-
ished with an attractive custom coating.
This User's Manual will explain in detail the operation of
your subwoofer and the philosophy applied to its design.
A clear understanding will insure that you obtain maxi-
mum performance and pleasure from this most exacting
subwoofer.

Introduction and Installation in Brief

i
nstallation in
Should you encounter a persistent problem that cannot
be resolved, please contact your authorized MartinLogan
dealer. They will provide you with the appropriate techni-
cal analysis to alleviate the situation.
Step 1: Unpacking
Remove your new subwoofer from its packing.
Step 2: Placement
Ideally, place the subwoofer in a corner near the front of the
room. This is a good place to start. Please see the Placement
section (page 11) of this manual for more details.
Step 3: Signal Connection
The Dynamo 1000W and Dynamo 700W subwoofers
are provided with the SWT-2 subwoofer wireless trans-
mitter. We recommend using a physical wire connection
if possible. However, if ideal subwoofer placement is a
challenge the SWT-2 will provide a seamless wireless
connection with an extremely detailed and articulate bass
performance.
Use the best cables you can. High quality cables, available
from your specialty dealer, are recommended and will
give you superior performance.
Attach your preamplifier/processor outputs through cables
to the signal input area located on the subwoofer's rear
panel. Please see the Connections and Control Settings
section (pages 8–10) of this manual for more details.
Step 4: Power Connection (AC) (see warning)
Make sure the level knob is set at 'Min'. Plug the
subwoofer into a wall outlet. Review the AC Power
Connection section (page 10) of this manual for more
details.
Step 5: Setting the Controls
Set the level knob to a medium volume position (12
o'clock). Set the power switch to 'Auto On'.
Step 6: Listen and Enjoy
Now, you may adjust your system and enjoy!
