Warning :
Check the mains voltage selector (N°1) position (115V/230V) and use the correct voltage for your country before connecting the
mains plug. Changing the fuse : In the event of complete failure, first disconnect the powers cable from the mains, then check the
mains fuse. When replacing the fuse, only use a fuse which is absolutely identical to the original one. If this does not solve the
problem, contact your dealer.
• Only the subwoofer is to be connected to the mains supply. Never plug your speakers directly into the main power supply.
• Before proceeding with any connection, make sure that all your equipment is switched off.
• Before switching it on, please ensure that the "level" button (N°4) is on minimum.
• Your Waterfall Speakers are to be directly connected to the speaker output socket on your amplifier or A/VProcessor.
• Also ensure that the polarities are correct : + (red) and - (black).
• Do not expose this product to heat and humidity.
The subwoofer MUST be connected to the mains with the
enclosed connector cord. The main switch has to be on "on"
position and the (N°8) switch "on-auto-off" in the "auto"
position. Your HF1 Evo Subwoofer is equipped with a wide range
of connection options for Hi Fi or Audi Video, Home Cinema.
In order to achieve the best acoustical performance, the HF1 Evo,
ideally has to be positioned near an angle/corner in the room.

1 • Settings of your A/V amplifier :
In the Set up menu of your A/V amplifer, the "small" mode on
speakers should be selected. If your processor gives you a choice
for the frequency cut off (crossover) in the menu, then choose :
- 80Hz
for the channels using Iguasçu Evo or Victoria Evo.
- 120Hz
for the channels using Hurricane Evo or Elora.
- 150Hz
for the channels using Serio.
If your configuration is a mix of these products and if your Proces-
sor doesn’t allow you to choose variable frequencies then choose
120 Hz.
- Freq (N°6) on 150 Hz. The "24-12-LFE" (N°6) switch must be on
the "LFE" position,
Phase (N°5) should be on 0° in most of the cases. Adjust the
volume level (N°4) to your own choice.
The final audio result will be linked to the quality of
your set up adjustments.
Freq (N°6) on 130 Hz (as shown) if you use Serio, Hurricane Evo or Elora, 60 Hz if you use an Iguasçu Evo or Victoria Evo.
-"24-12-LFE" (N°9) switch must be on the "12" position,
- Phase (N°5) should be on 0° in most of the cases. Phase may be adjusted if necessary.
- Adjust the volume level (N°6) to your own choice.
Configuration B :
Your amplifier doesn’t have a "Pre Out"
output. Connect the “High level Input” (N°12) to the ampli-
fier. Please check for the right polarities (+) red (-) black. An
Error would result into destroying both your Stereo amplifier
and your Subwoofer.

when not in use for a while, amplifier goes back into standby, if
"On" position is used, this means the amplifier will continuously
be on, and will not go into standby.
24-12-LFE : Switching of the active filter of the Sub. The choice of
24Db per octave or 12Db per octave is to be determined through
listening and personal choice.
