4.1 Физичко постављање

The placement of your subwoofer significantly impacts sound quality. Consider the following:

• Угаони положај: Placing the subwoofer in a corner can enhance bass output due to room acoustics.
• Постављање зида: Placing it against a wall can also boost bass, though less dramatically than a corner.
• Отворени простор: Placing it away from walls and corners may result in less bass reinforcement but potentially more accurate low-frequency response.
• Стабилност: Ensure the subwoofer is placed on a stable, level surface to prevent vibrations and movement during operation.

1. Прикључак за напајање: Connect the supplied power cord to the AC inlet on the rear panel and then to a grounded electrical outlet.
2. Аудио улаз: Use XLR or 1/4" TRS cables to connect your audio source (mixer, preamplifier, etc.) to the CH 1 INPUT and/or CH 2 INPUT jacks.
3. Аудио излаз: If connecting to full-range speakers, use XLR cables from the CH 1 OUTPUT and/or CH 2 OUTPUT jacks to the inputs of your main speakers. These outputs provide a high-pass filtered signal (100Hz HPF) when selected, or a full-range signal.

4.3 Блуетоотх упаривање

The CVE-18s allows audio streaming via Bluetooth from any smartphone or tablet.

1. Уверите се да је субвоофер укључен.
2. Активирајте Блуетоотх на паметном телефону или таблету.
3. Press and hold the "PAIR PUSH LINK HOLD" button on the rear panel of the CVE-18s until the Bluetooth indicator light begins to flash.
4. On your device, search for "CVE-18s" in the list of available Bluetooth devices and select it to pair.
5. Once paired, the Bluetooth indicator light will remain solid, and you can stream audio to the subwoofer.
6. For stereo pairing with another CVE speaker, refer to the Quick Start Guide for detailed instructions.

4.4 DSP Modes

The CVE-18s features two easy-to-use DSP-driven modes to tailor your sound:

• LIVE PA: Optimized for live sound reinforcement, providing a balanced low-frequency response suitable for various instruments and vocals.
• CLUB/DJ: Enhances bass impact and punch, ideal for music playback in DJ sets and club environments.

Select the desired mode using the "DSP MODE SELECT" button on the rear panel.

5. Упутство за употребу

5.1 Укључивање/искључивање

1. Before powering on, ensure all connections are secure and the LEVEL knob is set to its minimum position.
2. Flip the POWER switch on the rear panel to the "ON" position. The power indicator light will illuminate.
3. To power off, set the LEVEL knob to minimum, then flip the POWER switch to the "OFF" position.

5.2 Контрола нивоа

The LEVEL knob on the rear panel controls the overall output volume of the subwoofer.

• Start with the LEVEL knob at its minimum setting.
• Gradually increase the LEVEL to achieve the desired bass output, ensuring it blends well with your main speakers without distortion.
• Monitor the LIMIT indicator light. If it flashes frequently or stays lit, reduce the LEVEL to prevent clipping and potential damage.

5.3 Избор излазног режима

The "OUTPUT SELECT" button on the rear panel allows you to choose the signal sent to the XLR outputs:

• 100Hz HPF (High-Pass Filter): Sends a signal with frequencies below 100Hz removed to your main speakers. This is recommended when pairing the subwoofer with full-range speakers to optimize their performance and prevent them from reproducing low frequencies handled by the subwoofer.
• FULL RANGE: Sends the full frequency range signal to your main speakers. Use this if your main speakers have their own crossover or if you prefer a full-range signal.

6. Одржавање

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your CVE-18s subwoofer.

• Чишћење: Disconnect the power before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior surfaces. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or waxes.
• вентилација: Држите вентилационе отворе чистим од прашине и остатака.
• Складиштење: If storing the subwoofer for an extended period, place it in its original packaging in a cool, dry environment, away from extreme temperatures and humidity.
