Adding a subwoofer
If your nuPro active speakers are to be used in conjunction with
a subwoofer, you can connect it to the SUB connector. This pro-
vides a mono sum signal with a low pass filter for subwoofers. The
crossover frequency can be selected in the
advanced / subwoofer
menu item. The selection of the suitable crossover frequency of the
nuPro active loudspeakers can be made under
system hp
(see
page 11). The relative volume of the subwoofer can be adjusted at
the subwoofer itself.
Connecting a nuPro pair to a preamplifier
In addition to connecting a preamplifier to a nuPro pair in mas-
ter-slave mode, an external preamplifier can also be connected
directly to the individual nuPro active loudspeakers. As with con-
ventional active loudspeakers without master-slave functionality,
the boxes can then be configured independently of each other.
Connect the output of the left channel of your preamplifier to the
nuPro on the left and the output of the right channel to the nuPro
on the right.
Note:
Connect the output from your preamplifier to the AUX L input
on each nuPro X speaker. Do not connect the speakers to each
other with the SPDIF coaxial cable.
Use of a single nuPro
Each nuPro X loudspeaker can play either the left or right channel,
or a summed mono signal. This can be selected in the
channel
menu. (See page 11).
Using multiple nuPros
If you need to supply multiple nuPros with the same signal, con-
necting the speakers wirelessly is the obvious solution. A Master
loudspeaker can feed the signal to an almost unlimited number of
slave-speakers. It is also possible to mix different types of loud-
speakers.
Especially in this kind of party-mode we recommend to set the
master loudspeaker to
mono
in the
channel menu
. This way, all
nuPros will get the same summed mono signal.
You can also configure all loudspeakers as
single
if you need to
configure each loudspeaker individually. The loudspeakers must
be connected to each other with a coaxial cable in order to pass the
SPDIF signal on to the next loudspeaker.
Surround-sound setups
You can create complex surround sound setups with the nuPro
X-series loudspeakers.
Just like in a conventional system with passive loudspeakers, an
AV-receiver or AV-preamplifier is the heart of the system; the main
difference being that the nuPros are not connected to the loud-
speaker terminals but to the preamplifier line-outputs.
An example: Thanks to the wireless capabilities of the nuPro X
series you only need signal-cables for the front loudspeakers, the
surround loudspeakers can be connected wirelessly! This way you
save laying loudspeaker cables in your living room.
