TRx3010A/TRx3018A Preset:
TRx3903
(and other Carvin Audio TRx and SCx speaker models)
,
Variable Crossover
or
Sub Only
.
This selection will load different groups of settings for the TRx3010A/TRx3018A, which are based on the type of speaker to be
connected to the SATELLITE SPEAKER output. Optimized settings for several Carvin Audio speakers are pre-programmed and are
loaded from memory when those presets are chosen.
Use the “Variable X-Over” preset if you don’t find your speaker on the list or if you prefer to use your own settings.
Use the “SUB ONLY” preset if you are not using the SATELLITE SPEAKER output.
When you change a setting under one preset it will saved to memory for only that preset. Settings for other presets will remain
unchanged.
To choose a different preset, first return to the “TRx3010A Preset” or “TRx3018A Preset” screen by using the LEFT/RIGHT buttons,
then use the UP/DOWN buttons.
SENSITIVITY:
1.0v
,
1.2v
,
1.4v
,
2.0v
(Vrms)
Sets the overall level required from your source to the INPUT XLR to reach maximum volume. A lower setting will increase volume,
a higher setting will decrease volume. The factory setting is 1.4v.
X-OVER:
(CROSSOVER)
58Hz
through
160Hz
,
OFF,
or
pre-loaded
for Carvin Audio speaker presets.
For the Carvin Audio speaker presets this adjustment screen is bypassed, the optimal settings for these speakers are pre-loaded
from system memory.
When using the “Variable X-Over” or “SUB ONLY” preset, this setting is available to adjust the Crossover frequency. This is the high-
est frequency delivered by the TRx3010A/TRx3018A subwoofer. In the “Variable X-Over” preset this is also the lowest frequency
delivered to the SATELLITE SPEAKER output.
Smaller speakers usually require a higher setting because they cannot reproduce the lower frequencies, while larger speakers can
be used with a lower frequency setting. A good starting point is to set this to slightly above the lowest freqency available from the
external speaker (-3dB rating).
This a 3rd order, 24dB/oct filter. Use the OFF setting if you are using an external crossover device.
POLARITY:
NORMAL
or
REVERSE
The Polarity setting will set the phase of the TRx3010A/TRx3018A subwoofer to Normal or Reverse. If subwoofers are placed at
multiple locations in a room or if the external speakers are positioned far away from the TRx3010A/TRx3018A, low frequencies can be
affected by phase cancellation. If low freqencies are lacking or sound unusual, try the Reverse setting. The fcatory setting is Normal.
ENHANCE BASS:
OFF
,
ON
The Enhance Bass feature allows allows lower frequencies to be reproduced by the TRX3010A/TRx3018A. This setting lowers
the sub frequency extension by 15Hz without overloading the system. This effect will be reduced at higher volume, however, it adds
to the feeling at moderate levels.
EXT. VOLUME:
+6dB
to
-6dB
in 1db steps,
-9dB
,
-12dB
,
MUTE
The External Volume setting will adjust the level of the SATELLITE SPEAKER output. Typically this is set for “0”. This setting can
be used to adjust the level between the TRx3010A/TRx3018A subwoofer and the external speaker.
