1 ACTOR DX System
Components
ADX 112 A Mid/High Unit
These enclosures are loaded with one 12" HK AUDIO
Custom speaker and one 1. 4" compression driver
with a 60° x 40° CD horn. Delivering 600 W, the
Class D power amp is housed in a separate chamber
along with the DDO™ Controller.
ADX 115 Sub A Subwoofer
The ACTOR DX A Sub’s housing is split up into two
chambers. The front chamber serves as the speaker
cabinet for the 15" front-loaded loudspeaker, which
has a power handling capacity of 500 W and a nomi-
nal impedance of 8 ohms. The power amp is housed
in a separate compartment at the rear of the cabinet.
ADX 115 Sub B Subwoofer
The housings and speakers of the ADX 115 Sub Bs
and Sub A are identical. The Sub B is the passive
version of the Sub A.
2 Transport
To transport the system, simply set the subwoofers
on their casters and place the mid/high units onto
the subwoofers with the foam rubber grille side
facing down. Use original HK AUDIO‚ covers to
get your system ready to handle the rigors of the
road. Padded and protected against moisture, your
ACTOR-DX system is sure to serve you well for a
long time to come.
3 Setup and Cable Connections
3.1 The Standard ACTOR DX System
The standard system comprises
two ACTOR ADX 112 A mid/high units,
two ADX 115 Sub A subwoofers and
two ADX 115 Sub B subwoofers.
Always connect ACTOR DX starting at the top and
working your way down (refer to the diagram on the
rear panel of ACTOR DX components)! This may
seem unusual if you are accustomed to working
with active systems where signals are routed via
paralleled pass-through jacks, which would allow
connections to be made in any sequence.
ACTOR DX, in contrast, features the DDO™ System
Controller housed in the ADX 112 A mid/high unit.
This controller lets you determine basic settings
such as the system configuration, the mid/high
unit’s level and the subwoofer’s level right on the
mid/high unit. DDO™ then routes signals from the
mid/high unit to Sub A.
Note: Always connect cords in the correct sequence.
Never connect a cord carrying a signal from a mixer
directly to Sub A because this bypasses the DDO™
system controller! Always connect signal sources to
the “master” system input located on ACTOR DX
mid/high units!
3.2 ACTOR DX Full-range Setup
The full-range setup comprises
two ACTOR ADX 112 A mid/high units.
Select the appropriate system configuration on
the system controller's control panel. In full-range
mode, the subwoofer output (DDO™ controlled) is
disabled to prevent handling errors.
3.3 ACTOR DX Club Set
The club set comprises
two ACTOR ADX 112 A mid/high units and
two ADX 115 Sub A bins.
