3.1 Razpakiranje in pregled

Carefully remove the subwoofer from its packaging. Inspect the unit for any signs of damage during transit. Retain the original packaging for future transport or storage.

3.2 Namestitev

The placement of your subwoofer significantly impacts its performance. Experiment with different locations to find the optimal position in your listening area. Generally, placing the subwoofer in a corner can enhance bass output, but may also lead to 'boominess'. Placing it along a wall can provide a more balanced sound. Consider the following dimensions when planning placement:

The R-115sw offers various connection options to integrate with your audio system. Ensure the subwoofer is powered off before making any connections.

  • Vhodna linija (L/R): Use these RCA inputs to connect to the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) output or stereo pre-out of your receiver or processor. For a single LFE output, connect to the 'L' (left) input.
  • WA Port: This port is compatible with the Klipsch WA-2 Wireless Subwoofer Kit (sold separately) for wireless connectivity, offering more flexible placement options.
  • Vhodna moč: Connect the provided power cord to this input and then to a suitable wall outlet.

4. Krmilniki in nastavitve

The rear panel of the R-115sw features several controls to fine-tune its performance to your listening environment and preferences.

  • GAIN (Volume) Knob: Prilagodi izhodno raven nizkotonca. Začnite z nizko nastavitvijo in jo postopoma povečujte, dokler se nizki toni ne zlijejo z glavnimi zvočniki.
  • LOW-PASS (Crossover) Knob: Determines the highest frequency the subwoofer will reproduce. Adjust this to match the low-frequency capabilities of your main speakers. A common starting point is 80Hz-100Hz. If your receiver has a built-in crossover, set this knob to its highest setting (LFE).
  • FAZNO stikalo (0°/180°): This switch helps to acoustically match the subwoofer's output with your main speakers. Experiment with both settings to find the one that provides the most impactful and coherent bass.
  • POWER Mode Switch (ON/AUTO/OFF):
    • VKLOPLJENO: The subwoofer remains continuously powered on.
    • SAMODEJNO: The subwoofer automatically turns on when an audio signal is detected and enters standby mode after a period of inactivity.
    • IZKLOPLJENO: The subwoofer is powered off.

5. Upravljanje nizkotonca

Once connected and powered on, the subwoofer is ready for operation. The front-mounted LED power indicator will illuminate when the unit is active. Adjust the GAIN and LOW-PASS controls as described in Section 4 to achieve the desired bass response. For optimal performance, consider using your receiver's automatic room correction system (if available) after initial setup.
