Anleitung Zusammenfassung
A) If you have a pair of Athena Technologies® subwoofers and speakers, and they are docked as per earlier instructions, connect the speaker cable from the Receiver to the “Left Sub-In” on the subwoofer on both left and right speakers. As long as each speaker is docked correctly to the subwoofer, and the connection strap between the upper and lower connectors on the subwoofer are in place, then the speaker will receive the audio signal, eliminating the need to connect any cables directly to the speaker B) If you have one Athena Technologies® subwoofer and a pair of Athena Technologies® speakers, and one of the speakers is docked to one of the subwoofers, then perform the following steps: NOTE: The following example assumes the left speaker has the subwoofer docked to it. This is our recommendation as it is easier to understand. If however you wish to dock the subwoofer to the right speaker, you must reverse the below connections as far as left and right are concerned. 1) Connect the left channel speaker wire from the Receiver to the “Left Sub In” on the subwoofer. As long as the gold connection strap is in place between the upper and lower connectors, then the speaker will receive the correct audio signal. 2) Connect the right channel speaker wire from the Receiver to the “Right Sub In” on the subwoofer. Then connect another speaker cable from “Right Spkr Out” on the subwoofer, to the right channel loudspeaker. If you inadvertently reverse one of the connections (i.e, red to black), you will notice a severe lack of bass from your speakers. This is called wiring the system “Out of Phase”. If this occurs, check the wiring and re-connect as necessary. High Level Connecting the Speakers If you have only the speakers, and not the matching powered subwoofer, simply connect the speaker cables from the Receiver to the connectors on the back of the speaker as follows. Connect the speaker wire from the positive (RED +) terminal on the amp to the positive (RED+) terminal on the speaker. Connect the negative (BLACK-) terminal on the amplifier to the negative (BLACK-) terminal on the speaker. • A NOTE ABOUT SPEAKER WIRE Contrary to popular belief, not all speaker wire is the same. The speaker wire is the only contact the speaker has with the amplifier. If thin, low quality cable, such as "lamp cord" is used, then the overall sound quality will suffer. This is true, particularly in lengths of 10 feet or more, so we strongly recommend the use of high quality speaker cable to obtain the best performance from your speakers. • SUBWOOFER INPUT Using the low level RCA subwoofer output of a receiver, processor, or crossover. This connection is used when you are using an Athena Technologies® subwoofer separately. Or if you wish to use the pre-amp signals from your Receiver or Processor as opposed to the high-level connection method described above. Connect a single RCA to RCA interconnect cable to the "subwoofer output" jack from your receiver or processor to the RCA "subwoofer input" on the rear panel of the subwoofer. In this case, the main speakers must be connected directly to the receiver as described above in the "High Level Connecting the Speakers" section. Please read the "Subwoofer Controls" section to ensure all the controls are set-up correctly for this purpose. • SUBWOOFER CONTROLS "Bass Level" Control This rotary control adjusts the output level of your Athena Technologies® subwoofer and should be used to balance the level of the subwoofer with that of your main speakers. owners manual owners manual "Bass Range" Control This rotary control adjusts the high frequency roll-off of the subwoofer. Continuously variable from 50Hz to 150Hz, it is used to precisely match the subwoofer bass reproduction with that of your main speakers. • MODE SWITCH (Models P2 and P3) The P2, and P3 subwoofers are equipped with 2 preset equalization settings designed for the S2 and S3 speakers. The switch has 3 positions in total. These settings create a perfect blend between the subwoofer and the main speaker. Either of these two settings will bypass the Bass Range and Blend controls of the sub because they are no longer needed, but use of the Bass Level control is still possible. The following chart explains how to set the switch and under what circumstance. S2 Posi...
