Input Mode
Line Level
- Use when fed
a signal directly from a line
level output. It’s recommended
to use balanced cables with
XLR connectors or TRS ¼-inch
phone plugs (Tip, Ring, Sleeve)
to help reduce the unit’s
sensitivity to hum and buzz.
Speaker Level
- Set to
speaker level when fed from
an amplifier or speaker out
from a ‘powered’ mixer!
WARNING: Do not plug
in two speaker level
sources to a single ES
Powered Subwoofer!
Sub Level
Adjusts the bass added to the sound system by the ES Powered Sub.
It’s recommended to set the control while operating at a low sound
level. A ‘12 o’clock’ setting on the ES Series Powered Subwoofer’s Level
control is the correct starting point when setting up a sound system.
Note: At high output levels, this control may be
overridden by the internal limiter.
Mode
Punch Mode
processes the sound so it’s perceived as
punchier, giving less power into deep bass and more
into the upper bass.
Smooth Mode
will keep the original signal character with no
preference for deep or upper bass.
Deep mode
processes the signal with a deeper sound,
giving more power into deep bass while keeping the
upper bass similar to the Smooth Mode.
Hi Freq. Rolloff
Sets the upper bass frequency which the ES Powered Sub rolls off,
providing part of the ‘crossover’ function. Ideally the ES Powered
Sub would be used with an élite powered top cabinet (both
cabinets set at 100 Hz).
Input / Output LINK Jacks
All Link jacks are connected in parallel, use them to daisy-chain other
ES Powered Subs or full-range enclosures. For normal operation,
connect the ES Series Powered Subwoofer just like an ordinary
speaker along with the full range enclosures.
Note: the Mono Blend Input is designed for Line
Level signals only!
Line Level -
If receiving the signal from a
non-powered
mixer, a line level signal processor or another line-level source,
set the input switch to Line.
Speaker Level
- Set the Input Level switch to Speaker if the
signal is coming directly from a power amplifier, ‘powered’ mixer, or
another powered source.
Note: The ES Powered
Sub can be plugged in
before or after the full
range enclosure, it does
not alter the signal to the
daisy chained enclosures.
An external crossover is
not necessary.
Tip: The Link jacks allow
many ES Series Powered
Subs to be connected in a
string (parallel). There is no
practical limit to the number
of ES Powered Subs that
may be connected together.
WARNING: Do not plug in
two speaker level sources to
a single ES Powered Sub
Mono Blend Input Jack
This input jack enables you to connect a secondary line level signal
without needing to externally sum two signals (e.g. Left and Right). This is
helpful when you are adding a single ES Powered Sub to a stereo system.
Bluetooth™ Control
This control enables or disables the Bluetooth™ connection between
a tablet or a smart phone using the Yorkville App. Pressing the
Bluetooth™ button for more than 4 seconds resets the ES-Series
powered subwoofer to factory settings.
Note: The Bluetooth
™
functionality on this product
is intended for control only. It does not allow for
Bluetooth
™
audio connection
Protection
The ES Series Powered Subs use a DSP-based circuit to prevent
clipping, over power and over excursion. At high levels, the limiter will
limit the gain. The level control should be set while operating at low
levels. Turn the master volume of the signal going to the subwoofer
down to allow the balancing and setting of the bass along with the full
range speaker top in use.
Note: At high power levels, when the limiter is operating,
increasing the Subwoofer’s Level Control will NOT
increase the output.. Do NOT continue to increase this
setting while operating at high levels.
Stand Mounting Adapter
The ES Series Powered Subs come equipped with a built-in stand
mounting adapter that can be used with Yorkville SW-Teletube accessory
to support élite powered top cabinets. The support tube can be adjusted
up to its full 5-foot 4-inch extension safely as long as the ES Series
Powered Subwoofer is not inclined more than 10° (10-degrees).
WARNING: Larger or heavier cabinets should not be used!
Do not use larger than the recommended top cabinets!
