Connection Tips
• Keep all power cords away from all signal cables
to prevent humming from induced noise.
• Choose reliable signal cable cords (Earthquake
Sound also specializes in high performance RCA
cables and patches).
• All speaker wires that are ran trough the walls
should be twisted type to reduce potential hum
noise pick-up.
• It is best to use a grounded electrical outlet to
power the ampli
fi
er. Lack of input ground refer-
ence could be unsafe. Consult with your electri-
cal contractor about proper grounding.
Safe & Proper Handling
The Supernova Luminous subwoofer is consider-
ably heavy for an average person to carry or ma-
neuver. To prevent injuries and eliminate any
possible damage to your Supernova Luminous, we
encourage you to employ the help of a friend when
unpacking the unit. We further suggest the follow-
ing.
• Always wear a back support belt when carrying/
lifting the subwoofer.
• If possible, get someone to help you move your
subwoofer.
• Do not apply pressure or push against the face of
the speaker as this will cause irreparable damage
to the cone and suspension.
• When carrying your LU-12/LU-15, make sure that
the speakers/grilles are away from your chest,
eliminating the chance of pushing against the
face of the speaker.
• Do not drop the LU-12/LU-15 or subject it to sud-
den shocks. This will damage the external
fi
nish
and weaken the enclosure, creating air leaks.
• Avoid exposing the LU-12/LU-15 to moisture. Wa-
ter will damage the wood structure as well as the
ampli
fi
er and speaker.
• Cleaning the LU-12/LU15 is best using a soft cloth.
If needed, use a mild detergent with water. Like
any other electrical unit, always unplug the unit
before cleaning it.
Unpacking The LU-12 & LU-15
• Keep the original carton and packing materials for
future shipment storage.
• Check for any visual signs of damage. If you en-
counter any concealed damage, consult your Earth-
quake Sound dealer before proceeding with unit
installation.
• Retain the sales receipt as it establishes the dura-
tion of the limited warranty and provides informa-
tion for insurance purposes.
The Supernova Luminous is packaged well for safety.
We highly suggest having a padded surface and at
least two (2) people to safely unpack the subwoofer.
Step 1:
On a padded surface, carefully place
the box on its side to remove the bot-
tom packing tape and staples.
Step 2:
Without tilting the box too much, tug
the bottom flaps outward and keep
the protective foam in place.
Step 3:
Gently reposition the box upright.
Step 4:
Slide the box off, minding the protec-
tive foam on the top, bottom, and
sides of the subwoofer.
