Low pass filter means only low frequency signals are sent through and high frequency signals are filtered. Opposite is true for a high pass filter. Your low pass filter is adjustable to allow a range of frequencies 38-65 hertz to be set, anything above is filtered out. Using the lowest 38 hertz setting will only allow that frequency and lower to be seen by the subwoofer, generally 20 hertz the lowest possible to humans. By increasing it more low signal will hit the subwoofer and most likely produce not necesarily more bass but more bass signal attenuation. The gain will allow you to separately adjust the level of the sub over your overall preamp level. To start leave the gain in "0" or neutral and try adjusting the filter to your listening tatses. My guess/taste is a lower setting for HT and higher for music.
What is a Low Pass Filter
I can not fin a definition that a newbie like me can understand searching Audiogon. My Subwoofer, Sonus Faber Cremona, has 2 dials in the back. One for Low Pass Filter, switchable from 38-65Hz 6 positions and one for Gain that reads min to max.
