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.

Operation with D6 or D12
Select the controller setup 12S for 12S loudspeakers.

Select the controller setup 12S-D for 12S-D loudspeakers.

Within the D12 amplifier they are available in "Dual Channel" or

"Mix TOP/SUB" mode. For combinations with active subwoofers

fed by a single 4-wire cable "Mix TOP/SUB" mode must be

selected.

Up to a total of two 12S or 12S-D loudspeakers can be driven by

each channel of the D6 or D12 amplifiers.

2.3.1. Controller settings
For acoustic adjustment the functions CUT, HFA and CPL can be

selected.

CUT circuit
Set to CUT, the cabinet low frequency level is reduced. The

cabinets are now configured for use with d&b active subwoofers.

HFA circuit
In HFA mode (High Frequency Attenuation), the HF response of the

system is rolled off. HFA provides a natural, balanced frequency

response when a unit 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 circuit
The CPL (Coupling) circuit compensates for coupling effects

between the cabinets when building closely coupled arrays. CPL

begins gradually around 1 kHz, with the maximum attenuation

below 200 Hz. To achieve a balanced frequency response, the

CPL circuit can be set to dB attenuation values between 0 and –9.

Positive CPL values create an adjustable low frequency boost (0 to

+5 dB) and can be set when the system is used in full range mode

without subwoofers.
