1. Распакивање и преглед

Пажљиво извадите све компоненте из паковања. Проверите да ли су присутне следеће ставке:

  • 2 x Newton Series MC300 Satellite Speakers
  • 1 x BassCube 10S Powered Subwoofer
  • Speaker cables (if included)
  • Power cord for subwoofer
  • Ово упутство за употребу

Inspect all components for any signs of damage. If any items are missing or damaged, contact Cambridge Soundworks customer support.

2. Постављање звучника

Оптимално постављање звучника је кључно за квалитет звука.

  • Сателитски звучници: Position the MC300 satellite speakers equidistant from your primary listening position. For stereo listening, place them to the left and right of your display or listening area, ideally at ear level. For home theater use, they can serve as front left/right, center, or surround speakers.
  • Субвоофер: The BassCube 10S subwoofer can be placed almost anywhere in the room, as low frequencies are less directional. Experiment with different locations to find the best bass response. Placing it in a corner can often enhance bass output. Ensure it is near a power outlet.

3. Везе

Before making any connections, ensure all audio equipment (receiver, amplifier, subwoofer) is turned off and unplugged from the power outlet.

  1. Повезивање сателитских звучника: Use high-quality speaker wire to connect the MC300 satellite speakers to your amplifier or receiver. Match the positive (+) terminal on the speaker to the positive (+) terminal on your amplifier, and the negative (-) terminal on the speaker to the negative (-) terminal on your ampлифиер.
  2. Повезивање сабвуфера:
    • LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) Connection: If your receiver has an LFE or Subwoofer Pre-Out jack, connect a single RCA cable from this output on your receiver to the LFE input on the BassCube 10S subwoofer.
    • Stereo RCA Connection: If your receiver does not have an LFE output, connect RCA cables from your receiver's stereo pre-out jacks (left and right) to the corresponding left and right RCA inputs on the subwoofer.
    • Speaker Level Connection (Optional): If your receiver lacks pre-outs, you can connect speaker wires from your receiver's main speaker outputs to the speaker-level inputs on the subwoofer, and then from the subwoofer's speaker-level outputs to your satellite speakers. Refer to your receiver's manual for specific instructions.
  3. Прикључак за напајање: Када су све аудио везе успостављене, прикључите кабл за напајање субвоофера у зидну утичницу.

Note: Ensure all connections are secure to prevent signal loss or short circuits.

Упутство за употребу

1. Укључивање/искључивање

  • Субвоофер: The BassCube 10S subwoofer typically has an auto-sensing power feature. It will turn on automatically when it detects an audio signal and enter standby mode after a period of inactivity. A manual power switch may also be present for complete shutdown.
  • Сателитски звучници: The satellite speakers are passive and draw power from your amplifier/receiver. They will operate when your amplifier/receiver is powered on.

2. Adjusting Subwoofer Settings

The BassCube 10S subwoofer features controls to fine-tune its performance:

  • Јачина звука/Појачање: Adjusts the subwoofer's output level. Start with a moderate setting and adjust to blend seamlessly with your satellite speakers.
  • Фреквенција скретнице: This control determines the highest frequency the subwoofer will reproduce. Set it to complement your satellite speakers. A common starting point is 80-100 Hz. If your receiver has bass management, set the subwoofer's crossover to its highest setting or bypass if possible, and manage the crossover through your receiver.
  • Контрола фазе: This switch (0° or 180°) helps integrate the subwoofer's output with the main speakers. Experiment with both settings to find the one that produces the most coherent and impactful bass at your listening position.

3. System Calibration

For optimal sound, use your receiver's automatic room calibration system (if available) after connecting the speakers. This will adjust levels, distances, and crossovers for your specific room acoustics.
