Power Mode Switch

The Power Mode switch allows the STA-800D/STA-1000D to either stay on all the time, or go into Standby if no signal is being received. When in Standby mode and a signal is detected on one of the inputs, the STA- 800D/STA-1000D will turn on and begin playing the material on its active input(s).

Outputs

There are two types of physical output connectors on the STA-800D/STA1000D; Balanced XLR and single- ended with RCA connectors (also referred to as low level or line level). There are outputs for Left and Right main channels for both types of connectors.

The output connectors are typically used to either daisy-chain additional subwoofers with single or dual unfiltered outputs, or as the input to a power amplifier for the Left and Right main channels after using the High Pass Filter and (optionally) Delay functions with two channel analog preamps (see discussion above under “Inputs”).

Main Power Switch

Use this switch to apply power to the STA-800D/STA-1000D amplifier.

Power Cord

Plug the power cord into a wall outlet. Do not use extension cords to lengthen the cord. Do not plug into accessory outlets on the back of an AVR or pre/pro.

Use the Excel spreadsheet named Subwoofer Frequency Response link provided above, which will plot the frequency response of the subwoofer from 11.2 Hz to 100.8 Hz. Input your raw direct read values from your SPL meter into the green band of frequencies in the Raw SPL Data worksheet, and the Frequency Response worksheet will plot the FR of the subwooferSetup & Use of PEQ Adjusting The PEQ Identify the largest/widest peak in the response and target it for reduction with the PEQ control. When making adjustments to the PEQ control, there is no need to re-plotthe entire FR for interim adjustments - simply re-plotthe affected section of the curve to verify your PEQ adjustments are having the desired effect. When you are done making adjustments, you can re-plotthe entire frequency response to obtain a final curveSVSound STA-800D/1000DEquipped SubsSetup & Use of PEQ Set the Frequency control to the approximate center frequency of the largest peak. Set the Q control to 14.4 narrowest bandwidth, and set the Level control to -6dB. Play the test tones again and re-measureand re- plot the affected portion of the FR curve and visually evaluate your results. Simple trial/error will then allow you to adjust all three controls to shape the PEQ cut to achieve the desired effectAdvanced Features Room Compensation Room CompensationTerms & Conditions SVSound 6420 Belmont Avenue, Girard, Ohio FaxSVSound STA-800D/1000DEquipped Subs
