Alternatively, the speaker can also be operated via its side control panel (Fig. 2). The active speaker is switched on when
the VOLUME/SOURCE knob (7) is pressed for the first time; pressing it again cycles sequentially through the inputs. The
volume can be adjusted by turning the knob. The BASS (8) and TREBLE (9) knobs can be used to adjust the bass and
treble level to suit your surroundings and personal taste.
please note:
All HECO loudspeakers are designed and built for optimum sound reproduction with the tone controls in the central
position – i.e. with "linear" amplifier output. Turning up the bass and treble controls too far delivers more power to the
woofers and/or tweeters, and at high volumes this can actually destroy the speaker units! Always turn the volume down
immediately as soon as you hear distortion!
installation of the speakers
The loudspeakers are placed at ear height or a little above on the left and right besides the listening position. There
should be a clear line of sight between the loudspeakers and the listening position. Any sound-absorbing or reflecting
obstacles in the path will distort the sound. The HECO Ascada 2.0 speakers have been optimised for installation close
to a wall, meaning they are ideal for use on a table, sideboard, shelf or in a rack.
When you install the loudspeakers the following distances should be maintained: The distance to the sides and rear to
walls and items should be at least 5 cm.
If the speakers are arranged on a shelf, there must be a minimum clearance of 5 cm to the shelves above or the ceiling.
