Velodyne Acoustics VA-1250X User Manual
"If you know subwoofers, you know about Velodyne."
"... it's safe to say that when it comes to woofin' done right,
Velodyne's bigger models are probably the safest bet there is."
"... we just sat there marvelling at the sheer power and majesty of
this junior varsity Velodyne."

"...Velodynes VA-1215X is a great subwoofer. It combines deep,
loud, high-quality output with a slick styling, a fairly small cabinet, full
flexibility, it's sure to stand tall next to the very best of its peers."

The lighting flash with arrowhead symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
"dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a
risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the subwoofer.
1. Read Instructions -- All safety and operating instructions should be read before the subwoofer is operated.
2. Retain Instructions -- The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.
3. Heed Warnings -- All warnings on the subwoofer and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.

7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting -- The subwoofer should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by
the manufacturer.
8. Ventilation -- The subwoofer should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper
ventilation. For example, the subwoofer should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may
block the ventilation openings; or placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede
the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

or other subwoofers that produce heat.
10. Power Sources -- The subwoofer should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the
operating instructions or as marked on the subwoofer.
11. Power-Cord Protection -- Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point at which they exit from the subwoofer.
12. Caution: To prevent electrical shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully inserted.
13. Cleaning -- The subwoofer should be cleaned only as recommended by the manufacturer.
14. Nonuse Periods -- The power cord of the subwoofer should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for
a long period of time.

e. The subwoofer has been dropped or damaged.
17. Servicing -- The user should not attempt to service the subwoofer beyond what is described in the operating
instructions.
18. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
