Unpacking
Remove the SP-8S from the carton carefully, paying extra attention to avoid
touching or damaging the speaker cone. If the system is damaged in any way or
does not contain all parts, contact your dealer immediately. We recommend that
you save the carton in the event that you need to transport or ship the product in
the future. Within the SP-8S package you should find:
• This manual
• The SP-8S Subwoofer
• One (1) standard AC Power cable
Correct Power Operation
Since the SP-8S contains its own amplifier, it must be connected to a power
outlet using the detachable AC cable provided. Before connecting power, please
make sure that the Voltage-Select Switch, located on the the speakers rear panel
is set to the appropriate position, as described in the rear-panel features list
appearing earlier in this manual.
Note: - WARNING! - Use of improper voltage/ selector switch
combinations may result in hazardous conditions and/or damage
to speaker components not covered by speaker warranty.
Positioning the Subwoofer in the Studio
In theory, the best position for the SP-8S subwoofer is midway between the
satellite speakers, with its front facing forward and in the same plane as the fronts
of the satellite speakers. However, due to the fact that low bass frequencies are
somewhat non-directional, you may locate the SP-8S quite far from this position
without any detrimental effect on the sound reproduction.
Each room is different in acoustic properties, so please feel free to experiment
with placement. Different positions of the SP-8S in relation to walls will affect
its efficiency, as well as the room’s overall influence on the frequency response.
You can compensate for this by readjusting the filter settings (see section,
“Setting the Subwoofer LPF and the Satellites HPF”).
Connecting the SP-8S and Your Main Speakers
Most applications will utilize the SP-8S’s internal Stereo Bass Management
System to realize maximum benefit. There are, however, two possible
operational modes that you may use when connecting your SP-8S and your
Mains, or “Satellite” stereo speakers, i.e., 1) using the SP-8S with bass
management and 2) using the SP-8S without bass management.
