2.3. Operation
NOTICE!
Only operate d&b loudspeakers with a correctly configured d&b
amplifier, otherwise there is a risk of damaging the loudspeaker
components.
Applicable d&b amplifiers:
D80/D20/D12/D6/10D/30D.

2.3.1. Controller settings
For acoustic adjustment the functions CUT, HFA and CPL can be
selected.
CUT mode
Set to CUT, the low frequency level is reduced. The cabinets are
now configured for use with actively driven d&b subwoofers.
HFA mode
In HFA mode (High Frequency Attenuation), the HF response of the
system is rolled off. HFA provides a natural, balanced frequency
response when a cabinet is placed close to listeners in near field or
delay use.
High Frequency Attenuation begins gradually at 1 kHz, dropping
by approximately 3 dB at 10 kHz. This roll off mimics the decline
in frequency response experienced when listening to a system from
a distance in a typically reverberant room or auditorium.
CPL function
The CPL (Coupling) function compensates for coupling effects
between the cabinet and close boundary surfaces. CPL begins
gradually around 1 kHz, with the maximum attenuation below
400 Hz. To achieve a balanced frequency response, the CPL
function can be set to dB attenuation values between 0 and –9.
Positive CPL values create an adjustable low frequency boost (0 to
+5 dB) at around 65 Hz and can be set when the system is used in
full range mode without subwoofers.
