Your New Subwoofer
1.1
Unpacking
For most of the Danley Sound Labs line we recommend that it be unpacked by two or more people. Refer to the spec sheet for
product weight. Remove tape and open top flaps. Lay the box on its side and slide the subwoofer out. Remove the packaging
wrap.
1.2
Inspection
Check to make sure the product is not missing hardware of any kind. If any brackets or additional accessory hardware is missing,
please don’t hesitate to contact Danley Sound Labs.
1.3
Shipping Damage
If your subwoofer appears to have been damaged in shipping, please take clear photographs and contact Danley Sound Labs
immediately.

Understanding the Difference
2.1
THE CS SUBWOOFER
The CS30 is a compact subwoofer with a specially designed port that tunes the cabinet to have a higher sensitivity at low
frequencies.
2.1
THE DTS SUBWOOFER
The DTS family is a collection of subs designed for the home theater and high- end hi-fi market. They all use Tapped Horn
technology, but are distinct from our TH line in that they are not designed to deliver enough bass to fill a stadium, just your living
room!
Section 3
Initial Set Up
3.1
What Size Amplifier to Use
Selecting the right amplifier for your subwoofer depends on a variety of factors and uses. The owner is ultimately responsible for
choosing the best amplifier or amplifiers for the application. We recommend choosing an amp that is rated no less than continuous
and no higher than program.
Please note “Continuous” does not mean “forever”!
Most subwoofer manufactures, including Danley
Sound Labs, subscribe to the AES standards for subwoofer power ratings.
3.2
Connecting to the Subwoofer
Your Danley loudspeaker
has two NL4 (“speak
-
on”) connectors located on a panel on the rear of the box.
All specialty subwoofers
are wired as passive. The two NL4 connectors are wired parallel.
