Operating the Systems without K&F System Controller
The full-range systems can be used alone or in conjunction with a K&F subwoofer with
integrated crossover (e.g. SW 112-XO / SW 115D-XO SW 115E-XO or SW 118E-XO). In this
mode of operation the crossover limits the subwoofer's frequency range.
−
To protect the speakers from being destroyed and to avoid fire hazard, they should
only be operated with professional power amplifiers with the following specifications:
o
integrated or preceding subsonic filter (approx. 30 Hz, min. 12 dB / oc-
tave)
o
integrated clipping limiter
o

If you wish to use a speaker with a power amplifier which does not fulfil these specifications, then the speaker
should be controlled using a Kling & Freitag System Controller with limiter function. This is the only way over-
loading and the risk of fire can be avoided. The results of such a power amplifier defect cannot be avoided by
the controller.
12.1.1
CA Systems in Full-Range Mode
This mode of operation is ideal for speech applications and music applications without the need for a high
bass content. Should more bass be needed, the bass level can be increased between 50 and 80 Hz at the
mixing console.

If you are operating a mid-high system in a cluster (speakers arranged in close proximity) or as a stage moni-
tor, reduce the frequencies below 300 Hz by 3-4 dB! (The K&F System Controllers have a special ‘Top Low
Cut’ filter function for this purpose.)
