L.U.C.A.S IMPACT Manual 1.2
1 L.U.C.A.S IMPACT System
Components
Subwoofer
The L.U.C.A.S IMPACT subwoofer's housing is split
into two chambers. The front chamber serves as
the speaker cabinet for the 15" direct-loaded loud-
speaker, which has a power-handling capacity of
700-W and a nominal impedance of 8 ohms.
The active electronic circuitry, the power unit,
DDO™ digital controllers and Class D power amps
are housed in a separate compartment at the rear of
the cabinet.
Satellites
Satellites are loaded with a 8" HK AUDIO Custom
speaker and a 1" compression driver with a 60° x 40°
CD horn. They are rated for 250 W RMS power-hand-
ling capacity and a nominal impedance of 8 ohms.
The newly developed, integrated MonoTilt ™ pole
mount allows sound energy to be utilized with
great efficiency. Troublesome ceiling reflections are
minimized; the sound is clearer, tighter, and more
focused.
Beyond that, the cabinet is stabilized at its center
of gravity - no wobbling, tilting, or unintentional
turning.
More about limiters
Limiters are designed to protect power amps and
the speakers connected to them from damage. The
functionality and response of a limiter is determi-
ned by parameters called attack time, threshold
and release time. Adjusting these parameters
incorrectly can degrade the sound and bring about
dynamic distortion. At peak volume levels, for ex-
ample, vocals may fail to cut through the mix and
instruments that are played percussively may lose
their punch and dynamics.

2 Transport

To transport the system, simply set the subwoofer
on its casters and place the satellites onto the
subwoofer with the foam-rubber grille side facing
down. Secure the satellites, for example, using a
locking strap. Use original HK Audio L.U.C.A.S
IMPACT protective covers to gear up your personal
system for the rigors of the road. Amply padded and
protected against moisture, your L.U.C.A.S IMPACT
is sure to deliver satisfying performance for a long
time to come.
HK AUDIO limiting technologies are more than
merely technical tools serving to protect compo-
nents. We put a premium on authenticity, that is,
retaining an audio event's true dynamics. This
explains why our limiters are first and foremost
designed to optimise the sound, though they of
course also protect the system.
