Anleitung Zusammenfassung
From the loudspeaker enclosure to today's professional touring concert systems, the need to communicate, to make the connection between the person speaking and the audience is foremost in our mind. Moreover, we understand that how your message is delivered is just as important as the message itself. You see, your sound system is more than just a combination of dials, wires and speakers. It plays an integral part in ensuring that your thoughts and ideas are heard. Thus, your sound system should be treated with special care and attention to detail. At Fender, we know what building quality musical instruments and sound reinforcement equipment is all about. In fact, many of the world's best sounding electric musical instruments and sound reinforcement equipment proudly wear the Fender name. Whether you simply need loudspeaker systems to compliment your existing setup or a complete sound system, Fender has the sound reinforcement equipment that will meet your needs. Likewise, your decision to purchase Fender pro audio gear is one you will appreciate with each performance for years to come. Wishing you years of enjoyment and a heartfelt thank you, Bill Schultz Bill Schultz Chairman Fender Musical Instruments Corporation CONTRACTOR SERIES CS-18 PROFESSIONAL SUBWOOFER LOUDSPEAKER INTRODUCTION 13-Ply Baltic Birch Cabinet 800W Program Power Handling 40 Hz to 400 Hz Frequency Response 98 dB Sensitivity @ 1W / 1m One 18” (46 cm) Cast Frame Woofer with 4” (10 cm) Voice Coil and 109 Ounce Magnet 4-pole Speakon™ Connectors and High Current 1/4” Phone Jacks Reinforced for Flying Applications Thank you for purchasing a Contractor Series CS-18 Professional Subwoofer from Fender® Pro Audio. We are sure you will find it both a unique and effective sound reinforcement product, providing years of trouble-free service. Designed for the most demanding sound contracting requirements, the cabinet’s internal wood bracing helps eliminate side wall movement. This design results in low distortion, very high power handling and very high SPL output. Likewise, large ports on the CS-18 and cabinet prevent compression at high SPL due to large exit velocities. Housed in a sanded unfinished cabinet, the CS-18 offers the flexibility of painting and varnishing the cabinet to your specifications. Also, the CS-18 is equipped with flypoints to attach rigging hardware for flying applications. By using the Fender® RigSafe™ rigging and flying hardware system, the CS-18 can be safely suspended overhead. Likewise, the RigSafe™ system is compatible with both the JBL S.A.F.E.™ and ATM Fly-Ware™ components. With its trapezoidal shape, the CS-18 fits well in a tight cluster with either the CS-12 or CS-15 enclosures. When used in this configuration, the CS-18 effectively reproduces the low-end frequencies; the CS-12 or CS-15 is then used as a mid-high cabinet. CAUTION: Almost all speakers produce strong magnetic fields which may interfere with the normal operation of nearby electronic devices, including televisions and computer video monitors. To reduce or eliminate interference, increase the distance between this product and other nearby electronic devies. 3 CONNECTIONS SETUP SUGGESTIONS CONNECTIONS SETUP SUGGESTIONS The two 4-Pole Speakon™ connectors and the two 1/4" phone jacks are wired in full parallel so that any one of the connectors may be used as an input and the other connector as an output to another subwoofer. This allows the multiple cabinets to be "daisy chained", eliminating the need for several long runs of speaker cable. Note: A single CS-18 subwoofer represents an 8. load to the amplifier. Daisy chaining two of them in parallel will represent a 4. load to the amplifier. Only amplifiers rated for 4. output should be used in this configuration. The following polarity convention should be used when making connections to the CS-18: Polarity Phone Jack Speakon™ Positive (+) Tip 1+ and/or 2+ Negative (-) Sleeve 1- and/or 2- USING THE CS-18 IN A SYSTEM The CS-18 is designed to augment the low frequency performance of the main P.A. speakers using bi-amplification. By reproducing high levels of the low bass frequencies, the CS-18 relieves the smaller main speakers from having to supply this energy. In order to split frequencies and send certain frequencies to one type of speaker and other frequencies to another type, a line-level electronic crossover, such as a Fender® PCN-2™ or PCN-4™, is required. Two different configurations are shown on pages 5 and 6, demonstrating how easy it is to add a subwoofer to a system. Figure 3, on page 7, shows a more extensive configuration for those set-ups requiring additional power. The placement of any speaker can dramatically affect its sound. Thus, there are three primary considerations to review when placing subwoofers. The first is time alignment. The mid/high racks should be as close as possible to the subwoofer so the sound from the subwoofer reaches the audience at the same time as the sound from the mid/hi...
