Instruccions de funcionament
Initial Break-in Period
Like many audio components, your subwoofer will benefit from a break-in period. During the first 10-20 hours of use, operate the subwoofer at moderate volume levels. This allows the suspension components (surround and spider) to loosen up and reach their optimal compliance, leading to improved sound quality and longevity.
Ajust del sistema
After the break-in period, you can fine-tune your audio system. Adjust the amplifier's gain, crossover frequency, and bass boost settings to achieve your desired sound. Start with low settings and gradually increase them, listening for any distortion. If distortion is heard, reduce the settings immediately.
- Configuració de guany: Coincideix amb el ampsensibilitat d'entrada del lifter al volum de sortidatage de la unitat principal. Eviteu configurar el guany massa alt, ja que això pot provocar retalls i danys.
- Filtre de pas baix (LPF): Configura l'LPF al teu amplifier to filter out high frequencies from the subwoofer, typically between 80 Hz and 120 Hz, depending on your other speakers.
- Filtre subsònic (HPF): Si el teu amplifier has a subsonic filter, set it slightly below your enclosure's tuning frequency (for ported enclosures) or around 25-30 Hz (for sealed enclosures) to protect the subwoofer from playing frequencies too low for its design.
Manteniment
The DS18 SLC10S subwoofer requires minimal maintenance. Regular care will help preserve its appearance and performance.
- Neteja: Feu servir un drap suau i sec per netejar el con i el seu voltant. Eviteu utilitzar productes químics agressius o netejadors abrasius.
- Inspecció: Periodically check the speaker terminals and wiring connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion. Inspect the surround for any signs of cracking or damage.
- Medi ambient: Keep the subwoofer free from dust, debris, and direct sunlight, which can degrade materials over time.
