HKTS 2 System

Subwoofer-Level Control:

Volume 

may be adjusted using the 

Subwoofer-Level

Control

. Turn the control clockwise to increase

the subwoofer’s volume, or counterclockwise to
decrease it.

High-Cut (Low-Pass) Filter Switch:

Plac-

ing this switch in the 

ON

position activates cir-

cuitry that cuts out all audio input signals above
120Hz. This allows the subwoofer to focus its
power on reproducing the low-frequency portion
of the signal, avoiding inefficiency and
 distortion. Engage this filter when using the

Speaker-Level Inputs

, or when using the

Line-Level Full-Range Inputs

, unless your

receiver or processor processes its line-level
 output using a low-pass filter. The filter has no
effect when the 

Sub Input

is used.

Trigger Input:

Some receivers or sound

processors have a Trigger Output that sends a
signal to the subwoofer to switch on or off. If
your receiver has such a Trigger Output, connect
it here. When placed in the 

AUTO

position, and

when the 

Master Power Switch

is turned

on, the subwoofer will automatically turn itself
on or place itself in the Standby mode,
 depending on the status of your receiver or
processor. When this switch is placed in the 

ON

position, the subwoofer will remain on, whether
or not it is receiving an audio signal.

An LED located on top of the subwoofer
 indicates whether the subwoofer is in the On or
standby state when used with the 

Trigger

On/Off Switch

in the 

AUTO

position. The

LED is lit blue to indicate that the subwoofer is
receiving an audio signal and is turned on, and
the LED is lit amber to indicate that no signal is
being received and the subwoofer is in Standby
mode. 

When the 

Trigger On/Off Switch

is in the

ON

position, the LED will be lit blue, whether or

not an audio signal is present. 

When the 

Master Power Switch

is turned

off, the LED goes dark, no matter which position
the 

Trigger On/Off Switch

is in.
