Carefully unpack the Eltax Active subwoofer and check for any damages. If possible, keep the carton box in case future transportation is needed.

You should immediately contact your dealer if the active subwoofer is damaged.

Installation

There are two ways to install Your new subwoofer ; below we will describe how:

1. From amplifier with pre out to subwoofer:

Connect the power cord from the amplifier pre out to Line In on Your active subwoofer. Hereby the sound signal runs from amplifier subwoofer pre out to Your active subwoofer. (See Fig 1 on page 8)

2. From amplifier speaker out to subwoofer:

Connect the speaker cords from the amplifier speaker termi- nations to High Level In on Your active subwoofer. Make sure that the right channel on the amplifier is connected to the right channel on the subwoofer. Repeat the same check for the left channels. Next, connect the front speakers from High Level Out on Your active subwoofer. Make sure that the right channel on the subwoofer is connected to the right speaker. Repeat the same check for the left channel.(See Fig 2 on page 9)

Functions (See Fig. 3 on page 10)

Volume (4)

The sound level of the active subwoofer can be adjusted. Use the volume control carefully, remember that programme material may contain very high energy.

Phase (8)

The phase is adjustable to 0 or 180 degrees. Try both set- tings for preferred sound.

Crossover (5)

It is possible to reduce the bass - adjustment from 50-250 Hz. Try different settings for preferred sound.

Placement

Your active subwoofer is designed to re-produce music infor- mation in the frequency range below 100Hz. The human ear is not able to localize sound for these low frequencies, this is why the placement of the subwoofer is not critical.However you can use the nature of the acoustic laws in the following ways:

a. To get the most amplification of the room itself, place the active subwoofer close to a corner at a distance of about 10 cm from the walls. If you get to much bass please move the subwoofer out from the corner. (See drawing A on page 6)

b. By experimenting with the placement of the subwoofer you can optimize the sound quality. One good rule is to place the subwoofer near the satellite speakers. (See drawing B on page 6)

c. Never cover the built-in amplifier.

Aufbau

Packen Sie den aktiven Subwoofer mit grosser Vorsicht aus und heben Sie die Originalverpackung auf.Wenn ein Scha- den am Gerät festzustellen ist, kontakten Sie unverzüglich Ihren Händler.

Man kann den aktiven Subwoofer auf 2 Weise aufbauen - unten werden die Möglichkeiten geschildert:

1.Verbindung von Verstärker (Subwoofer pre out) zum Subwoofer:

Verbinden Sie das Kabel vom Verstärker Subwoofer pre out mit dem Subwoofer (Line In (1)). Hiermit läuft das Lautsignal vom Subwoofer pre out zu Ihrem aktiven Subwoofer.(s. Abb. 1 Seite 8).

2.Verbindung vom Verstärker (Speaker out) zum Sub- woofer:

Verbinden Sie das Kabel der Lautsprecheranschlüsse des Verstärkers mit dem aktiven Subwoofer (High Level In ) Beachten Sie, dass der rechte Anschluss des Verstärkers mit dem rechten Anschluss des Subwoofers verbunden werden muss. Das gleiche gilt für die linken Anschlüsse. Die Satel- liten oder Frontlautsprecherboxen werden darauf mit dem Subwoofer verbunden (High Level Out ). Beachten Sie, dass der rechte Anschluss des Subwoofers mit dem rechten Laut- sprecher verbunden werden muss. Das gleiche gilt für die linken Anschlüsse.(s. Abb. 2 Seite 9).

Funktionen (s. Abb. 3 Seite 10).

Lautstärkenregler (4)

Die Lautstärke des Subwoofers wird direkt am Subwoofer geregelt. Vorsicht bei der Einstellung der Lautstärke. Es sind oft grosse Lautstärkenuntrerschiede in verschiedenen Sequenzen eines Filmes; daher ist Genauigkeit bei der Ein- stellung erforderlich.

Phase (8)

Phasenverschiebung 0 oder 180 Grad. Probieren Sie einfach die Einstellungen aus, um den gewünschten Effekt zu erzielen.

Crossover (5)

Es gibt die Möglichkeit, den Bass zu reduzieren - Einstellung von 50-250 Hz. Probieren Sie einfach verschiedene Einstel- lungen aus, um den gewünschten Effekt zu erzielen.

Standort

Das menschliche Ohr kann die Frequenzen des aktiven Sub- woofers nicht orten, da sie bei unter 135 Hz liegen. Folgen- des muss aber trotzdem bei der Plazierung des Subwoofers beachtet werden:

1.Damit der Raum die Basstöne verteilen kann, stellt man den Subwoofer am besten in eine Ecke mit etwa 10 cm Abstand zur Wand. Wenn die Basswiedergabe etwas zu kräf- tig ist, einfach etwas von der Wannd abrücken. (s. Abb. A Seite 6).

2.Der Subwoofer sollte in der Nähe der Satelliten aufgestellt sein (s. Abb. B Seite 6).

3.Der Subwoofer darf nicht zugedeckt werden.
