1. Left and right outputs
Output signal - this supplies a full range output signal to connect an additional full range active cabinet or
Kompact 12 Pro system.
2. Left and right channel XLR / jack line inputs
Connect your input source via jack / XLR from your mixer or other line level audio source (CD / radio / etc)
3. Left and right amplified outputs
Connect to the left and right satellite speakers using the speakeron cables supplied. Insert the speakeron
plug and then turn clockwise to click and locate the plug correctly. To remove the speakeron plug slide back
the silver metal catch, then turn anti-clockwise to release the plug.
4. On / Off power switch
Press to power the speaker cabinet on / off.
5. Subwoofer volume control
Adjust the volume control to the desired level, make sure the unit is not driven in clip mode.
6. Phase
The phase switch electrically reverses the polarity of the subwoofer and thus changes the phase angle by
180 degrees, reversing + and – input signal. This is sometimes useful in cases where the subwoofer output
is electrically out of phase with the mid-high speaker outputs. Let your ear be the judge as to which position
allows your subwoofer and speakers to perform optimally. Usually there is a drastic and obvious difference
between both settings. If you hear no difference, then keep the switch set at “normal”.
7. Satellite volume controls
Use these to adjust the volume of the left and right satellite speakers.
8. Power LED
When illuminated shows the sub unit is powered from the mains.
9. Clip indicator LED
If this LED is lit it means your signal is clipping. To stop the signal from clipping, lower the volume to the
point where the LED is blinking along with the bass beat.
10. AC power
Connect a suitable mains supply, check the voltage selector switch is in the correct position for your mains
voltage supply. DO NOT TURN THE UNIT ON UNLESS THE VOLTAGE IS CORRECT.
