Speedwoofer 10 SMKII Features

 

 

• 

Improved Compression Guide Technology Tuning with rear venting.

 

 

• 

Precision 

10” 

woofer with heavy, die

-

cast aluminum frame, massive magnet structure and 

motor assembly. This allows the cone, along with its surround to achieve high excursions, 
delivering deep, powerful bass with complete control and linearity. 

 

 

• 

Powerful 400 Watt RMS Digital Amplifier. This efficient amplifier minimizes power con-
sumption (around 1 watt in standby mode, only slightly higher in operation mode with no 
signal). Because amplifier standards are not strictly enforced, many manufacturers would 
rate this amplifier at a much higher wattage. If this amplifier were rated in peak power (a 
specification we don

t agree with) it could be rated in excess of 1,000 watts.

 

 

• 

New integrated DSP maximizes output at all frequencies extends the frequency response 
for deeper bass. Two sound modes are available.

 

 

• 

Dense MDF wooden cabinet with internal bracing. Unlike most subwoofers, the Speed-
woofer 10S

s enclosure is completely filled with damping material to further reduce un-

wanted resonances.

 

 

• 

Wireless capability. The Speedwoofer 10S has a wireless receiver built in. If you are unable 
to run an audio cable to the subwoofer, you can purchase our optional wireless transmitter 
and get full performance wirelessly.

 

 

First Steps

 

 

• 

Be careful when using sharp objects to open boxes. The insertion of a long and/or sharp 
object such as a blade can damage the components inside. Use of chainsaws, machetes, 
power tools, explosives, light sabers, and most kitchenware is not recommended. If in 
doubt, ask mommy to help you. 

 

 

• 

Please take a moment to inspect your subwoofer for damage. If you find any damage that 
you did not specifically request, please contact us or the shipping company immediately 
and take photos of the box and subwoofer. All components have been inspected when 
leaving our factory; however damage can occur during shipping.

 

 

• 

If possible, we recommend saving all packaging, including boxes, as a convenient means of 
re

-

packaging for moving or for sending your subwoofer in for service (in the unlikely event 

it needs it).

 

 

• 

You will need either an RCA cable or the optional wireless transmitter to connect the sub-
woofer. If you purchase an RCA cable, you do not need to buy an expensive one. Subwoof-
ers reproduce a narrow band of frequencies, typically 20

-

200 Hz. Do not  allow some slick ,

-

all salesperson to convince you to spend a lot on this cable. Just pur-

chase a cable that is well

-

constructed and has good shielding to reduce interference.
