INTRODUCTION

The ES200P powered subwoofer incorporates a 200 watt amplifier. It can be used to enhance the bottom end (bass) of a full-range speaker system and increase the overall output of the system. The inputs to the subwoofer can accept a single source either from a speaker/amplifier output or a line level output from a pre-amp or mixer.

The ES200P also has a built in limiter and thermal protection that make this product

smooth and robust at high power levels. The internal limiter and the internal protection are factory set to maximize performance.

2.Volume

Set the volume control to a desired level as music is being played through the unit.

A setting of 0 dB on the SUBWOOFER LEVEL control is the correct starting point when setting up a sound system. From there the sound can be adjusted for best sound. The 0 dB mark refers to the setting that will give full power when the line input is used and the input signal is at a level of +4 dBV. This also is the setting to give a sensitivity of 2.83 Vrms (1 watt 8- ohms) for 100 dB spl when set for speaker level input. With a typical full range companion speaker this will give flat response. In either line or speaker operation it will usually be desireable to set the control at +3 to +6 to give some bass boost at low power levels. At levels approaching full power the built-in limiter will automatically reduce the gain to prevent over powering the subwoofer. Operation with settings significantly above +12 may clip the circuitry in the subwoofer reducing the dynamics of the music. Setting the subwoofer gain above +12 is only appropiate at low operating levels.

3. Input Level Switch

Speaker

Normally, the input to the subwoofer is from a full-range speaker cabinet, or amplifier output.

(See figure 2.0)

Line

In this case, the input to the subwoofer is from a line level source such as a mixer.

4. Ground Lift

If a hum, or buzz is detected from the subwoofer, try setting the switch to the GND LIFT position (OUT position). The switch should otherwise be left in the GND (IN position).

5. Input Jacks

The two inputs are balanced 1/4-inch parallel jacks and can be connected as shown in figures 2 and 3, on the following page. Please note that there is no effect to the performance of the full-range speaker if it is used to supply a music signal to the ES200P.
