Event electronic S100 - Manual (Page 2)

Thank you for choosing the S100 Active Low Frequency Monitor. To get the most
from your new subwoofer, please take a moment to read this manual and familiarize
yourself with the product’s features, set-up, and use.
Unpacking
The shipping container is designed to protect your subwoofer during transit. Please
unpack and check your subwoofer carefully, and immediately report any damage
to your dealer or to the company that delivered the subwoofer to you. The packing
materials are designed to be reused—do not discard them. If you need to return the
subwoofer to the factory for repair, it must be shipped in the original packaging.
Connections and Operation
If you currently have a set of active direct field monitors up and running - that is,
properly placed in front of you in a typical project studio acoustic environment (refer
to your active direct field monitors owners manual for proper placement) - then you
are likely ready to place, connect, and use the S100.
In nearly all monitoring environments, the S100 should be placed on the floor,
speaker facing down, directly between the front left and right direct field monitors.
Typically these monitors are situated 60° apart, or 30° on either side of front/center,
and positioned at ear level, with the low and high frequency driver components
pointed toward your ears.
• LFE channel monitoring (5.1 setup). Feed the LFE signal from your preamplifier
or mixer into the S100’s Line In Mono input jack and set the S100’s level using the
Input Sensitivity control.
• Extending the low frequency response of your active monitoring system (2.1
setup). Connect the source to the Left and Right Line In Stereo inputs on the S100,
and feed the Left and Right Line Outs (pass-thrus) to your Left and Right satellite
monitors, respectively. Set the S100’s level using the Input Sensitivity control. It
should be set for a balanced, natural sound, rather than for excessive low end
response.
