LD Systems SUB 88 A - Aktiewe Subwoofer 2 x 8" Gebruikershandleiding

1. Inleiding

The LD Systems SUB88A active subwoofer features two 8" loudspeakers and delivers 600 W Peak power. The SUB88A is the active version of the SUB88, one of our most popular subwoofers. It is equipped with a 600 Watt (peak) mono amplification module that offers excellent sound and dynamic characteristics. This subwoofer is the ideal partner for our SAT62A active loudspeakers, our SAT42/242/62 passive loudspeakers in combination with an external amplifier (like DJ200), or for all types of satellites if you wish to enrich the sound with deep and powerful bass.

Rear Panel Controls and Connections:

• Krag skakelaar: Skakel die subwoofer aan of af.
• AC-invoer: Verbind die kragkabel.
• FUSE Houer: Contains the main fuse for protection.
• INPUT (XLR/TRS Combo Jack): Main audio input for connecting to a mixer or audio interface.
• SUB LEVEL Knob: Verstel die algehele uitsetvolume van die subwoofer.
• SUB CROSSOVER Knob (80 Hz - 200 Hz): Sets the upper frequency limit for the subwoofer. Frequencies above this setting will be sent to connected satellite speakers (if applicable).
• SUB PHASE Switch (0°/180°): Adjusts the phase of the subwoofer output to match the phase of your main speakers, preventing phase cancellation.
• LIMIT LED: Illuminates when the internal limiter is active, indicating that the signal is too high.
• SIGNAL LED: Verlig wanneer 'n oudiosein teenwoordig is.
• KRAG-LED: Verlig wanneer die eenheid aangeskakel is.

5. Opstelling

Follow these steps to properly set up your LD Systems SUB 88 A subwoofer.

1. Plasing: Position the subwoofer on a stable, flat surface. For optimal bass response, consider placing it in a corner or near a wall. Avoid blocking the bass reflex port.
2. Kragverbinding: Ensure the POWER switch is in the OFF position. Connect the supplied power cable to the AC Input on the rear panel and then to a suitable power outlet.
3. Klankverbinding:
   • Connect the audio output from your mixer, audio interface, or pre-amplifier to the INPUT (XLR/TRS Combo Jack) on the subwoofer's rear panel using a balanced XLR or TRS cable.
   • If connecting satellite speakers, ensure they are connected to the appropriate outputs on your mixer/interface, or if your setup allows, route them through the subwoofer's high-pass outputs (if available, though not explicitly listed for this model, typical for subwoofers).
4. Aanvanklike instellings:
   • Stel die SUB-VLAK knob to its minimum (MIN) position.
   • Stel die SUB CROSSOVER knob to an initial setting, typically around 100 Hz for general use. Adjust later for optimal sound.
   • Stel die SUB FASE switch to 0°. You may need to adjust this later during calibration.

6. Bedryf

Instructions for operating your LD Systems SUB 88 A subwoofer.

1. Krag aan: Once all connections are made, switch the POWER button to the ON position. The POWER LED should illuminate.
2. Volume aanpassing: Start playing audio through your system. Slowly increase the SUB-VLAK knob until the desired bass level is achieved. Ensure the LIMIT LED does not illuminate frequently, as this indicates signal clipping.
3. Crossover-aanpassing: Pas die SUB CROSSOVER knob to blend the subwoofer's output seamlessly with your main speakers. A lower setting (e.g., 80 Hz) is suitable for larger main speakers, while a higher setting (e.g., 120 Hz or more) may be needed for smaller satellite speakers. Experiment to find the best balance.
4. Fase-aanpassing: While playing music with strong bass, toggle the SUB FASE switch between 0° and 180°. Choose the setting that produces the most impactful and defined bass. This compensates for acoustic phase differences between the subwoofer and main speakers due to their placement.
5. Monitering: Pay attention to the SIGNAL and LIMIT LEDs. The SIGNAL LED confirms audio input. If the LIMIT LED flashes frequently or stays lit, reduce the input signal level from your source or decrease the SUB LEVEL to prevent distortion and potential damage.

7. Onderhoud

Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity of your subwoofer.

• Skoonmaak: Disconnect the power before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior surfaces. Do not use liquid cleaners, aerosols, or abrasive chemicals.
• Ventilasie: Ensure that the ventilation openings are free from dust and debris. Periodically clean them with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.
• Berging: If storing the subwoofer for an extended period, keep it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Sekering vervanging: If the unit does not power on, check the fuse in the FUSE holder. Replace it only with a fuse of the same type and rating as specified on the unit. Refer to qualified service personnel if unsure.
