rca low level output connectors. Use the corresponding subwoofer’s low level rca input terminals.

Using multiple subwoofers in a home theatre set-up can be a little more challenging. From the single processor’s LFE-output, it’s simply possible to daisy chain subwoofers. It’s also possible to connect one sub to the left and one to the right front loudspeaker, using the high level connection. Using this set up, it’s most likely to adjust your processor’s bass management features. In case of doubt, please ask your dealer’s advice.

Do I really need a subwoofer?

It depends on your tastes. For flat panel loudspeakers with a limited low frequency extension, you probably need a subwoofer. Especially if you like organ music, synthesizers and modern party music. Larger panels will extend towards 45Hertz. These will perfectly suit most middle of the road repertoire without need for a subwoofer.

In a 5.1 or 7.1 home theatre system, a subwoofer is an undeniable part of the experience. When you can’t live without the dynamic power, the physical impact and the low frequency extension a decent movie can provide, please run for a subwoofer. But, for different reasons, you can do without sub. The only thing you have to do, is to reconfigure the av receiver’s bass management to route the lower frequencies to the front loudspeakers.

Should I unplug my subwoofer during lightning?

Yes, but try to unplug the sub and the rest of your equipment before the lightning is straight above your house. Unplug the equipment physically from the AC-line. Switching it off or using the stand-by mode does not protect at all against lightning.

Do I need a separate amplifier for my subwoofer?

Unless you buy ‘passive’ subwoofers: NO. Most subwoofers come with an inbuilt amplifier. Those ‘active’ subwoofers only need a low level (rca) of high-level connection with existing amplifiers.

Do I need separate subwoofers for music and home theatre?

Basically, a really good subwoofer can provide optimal results for both applications. In daily live, most people feel the need for a larger sub in their home theatre, because of the visceral impact, that is inherent and part of the fun of watching movies. Apart from this, listening to music needs a different balance between the subwoofer and the rest of the system, than watching and listening to movies. Most av-processors will provide you with the opportunity to simply make small adjustments, using the remote control.

Can I clean my Final subwoofer?

Yes, but first disconnect the AC-line. Clean only with a damp cloth. Never use cleansers or chemicals. Never leave a wet cloth on the surface of the cabinet.

S110 specifications

The Final Sound S110 is an innovative electrostatic loudspeaker that combines cutting-edge technology with an elegant design to deliver an exceptional audio experience. Renowned for its impressive sound quality, the S110 utilizes an advanced electrostatic driver that allows for unmatched clarity and detail in sound reproduction.

One of the standout features of the S110 is its unique diaphragm design. The electrostatic panel, which is significantly thinner than traditional cone drivers, enables the speaker to reproduce high frequencies with remarkable accuracy while minimizing distortion. This characteristic is particularly beneficial for critical listening environments, providing a soundstage that feels both expansive and immersive.

The S110 is also engineered with a proprietary transformer design that enhances the speaker's performance. This transformer ensures that the electrostatic panels receive a consistent power supply, which is crucial for maintaining dynamic range and overall sound fidelity. As a result, users can enjoy music with a true-to-life quality that brings every instrument and vocal performance to the forefront.

Another significant technology incorporated into the Final Sound S110 is its integrated crossover network. Traditional loudspeakers often rely on multiple drivers and crossover points, which can sometimes lead to phase issues and a less cohesive sound. The S110's design simplifies this process by effectively managing frequencies through the electrostatic panel alone, resulting in a more coherent sound across the frequency spectrum.

In terms of aesthetics, the S110 boasts a sleek and minimalist design that fits seamlessly into any modern living space. The build quality is exceptional, with premium materials used throughout the construction. The speaker is available in several finishes, allowing users to choose an option that best suits their décor.

Moreover, the S110 is versatile in terms of placement, as it can be positioned close to walls or corners without significant loss of sound quality. This flexibility ensures that users can enjoy optimal performance no matter the room size or configuration.

Overall, the Final Sound S110 represents a pinnacle of loudspeaker technology. Its combination of precise sound reproduction, innovative engineering, and stylish design makes it a remarkable choice for audiophiles and casual listeners alike, promising a captivating listening experience that transcends traditional audio capabilities. For anyone seeking to elevate their music experience, the S110 is certainly worth considering.
