The Active E 110 Sub A 10" Subwoofer - HK Audio elements E 435 Manuel D'utilisation

7 Power Switch
When you switch the system's amp on, the Signal
LED lights up red for about five seconds, and then
changes to green, indicating the amp is ready to
operate.
8 Mains Input
Use the factory-included locking mains cord to
connect this socket to a wall outlet. The catch
holds the plug in place to prevent accidental or
unintentional removal from the socket. To unplug
the cord, press the yellow spring-loaded lock at the
bottom of the plug to release this catch.
Note: This socket also accepts a conventional IEC
cable, but of course the catch will not lock it in place.
Caution! Ensure all power amps (EA 600, E 110
Sub A) are switched off before connecting other
ELEMENTS components, otherwise they may be
damaged! Always set the entire system up first before
you switch on EA 600 power amps and active E 110
Sub A subwoofers.
Caution! Make sure the local mains voltage matches
the voltage specified on the EA 600 power amp.
Connecting it to the wrong mains voltage may
destroy the amp's electronic components.
9 E-Connect
E-Connect is a novel combination of audio bus and
mechanical coupler that connects the EA 600 power
amp to other components. The beauty of its
integrated bus is that it takes the place of speaker
cords.
You can set the power amp with the bottom
E-Connect coupler facing down on a stand consisting
of the EF 45 base and EP 1 pole or on an E 110 Sub A
or E 110 Sub subwoofer. Note that the EA 600's
bottom E-Connect is a mechanical connector only. It
is not equipped with a bus so it cannot be used to
route speaker signals.
The top E-Connect accepts an E 435 mid/ high unit.
Its locking button has a catch that holds the unit in
place, and its internal bus routes the E 435 with the
speaker signal. Press this locking button to separate
the two components when dismantling the column.
1.3 The Active E 110 Sub A 10"
Subwoofer
The active E 110 Sub A subwoofer is designed
to deliver high sound pressure levels. Small yet
powerful, the high-performance 10" woofer fits into
a very compact housing and supplies a solid, low-
ranging bass foundation. Sited at the rear of the
enclosure, the integrated amp module delivers 600
watts at 4 ohms. You'll also find all connectors and
control features for connected modules on the rear
panel.
Connections and Control Features:
1 Mid/ High Filter with two LED indicators
This button selects the proper EQ setting for the
given number of mid/ high units connected in one
column. Leave the button unpressed to activate
the filter for one mid/ high unit; press it to activate
the filter for two mid/ high units. The two LEDs
show the selected EQ setting - one illuminated LED
indicates the EQ setting for one mid/ high unit; two
illuminated LEDs indicate the filter for two mid/ high
units.
2 Sensitivity Switch
Use this selector to match the preamp's input gain
to the mixer's output signal level. Engage it to select
either -10 dBu, for example, for unbalanced ¼" jacks
and consumer level devices, or + 4 dBu, which is
standard for balanced XLR ports, professional mixers,
and the like.

Our recommendation: Select +4 dB when using a
professional-grade mixer equipped with balanced
outputs. This lets you take advantage of console
faders' full control range and helps prevent
overloads. Opt for -10 dB when using a console with
a lower output level (such as an unbalanced ¼"
output).
Heads up: When using several amps (E 110 Sub A or
EA 600) to drive the system, be sure to set all their
Sensitivity switches to the same position, +4 dBu or
-10 dBu.
3 Combination XLR/1/4" jack
Use a mic cord equipped with XLR connectors to
route the signal from your mixer (via master left/
right, line out, or a similar circuit) to the balanced
inputs. The XLR connectors' pin assignments must
be as follows: 1= ground, 2= +, 3= -. You may also use
a ¼" stereo jack plug to route signals via balanced
circuits. Unbalanced signals can be patched in via a
mono plug.
4 Through Port
This parallel output routes the line signal on to
further EA 600 amps, active E 110 Sub A subwoofers,
or other components such as active monitors,
monitor power amps, and the like via a cord sporting
XLR connectors.
