Speaker Connections, Operation
Connecting to a Trigger-Voltage Source
If your preamp/processor or another audio/video component has a trigger-voltage
connection that supplies between 3V and 30V (AC or DC), connect it to the HKTS 210SUB’s
External Trigger Input connector
5
. If the component’s trigger-voltage connection
has a 3.5mm mini jack, you can use the supplied combination LFE/trigger cable to make
the connection.
NOTE: Please do not connect the subwoofer ON/OFF trigger cable to the Remote Control
Output (IR Out) of your home cinema system or surround receiver. This could lead to
malfunction.
Operation
Turning the Subwoofer On and Off
Set the HKTS 210SUB’s Power switch
8
to the
ON
position.
If the • Power On Mode switch
2
is set to
AUTO
, the HKTS 210SUB will
automatically turn itself on when it receives an audio signal, and it will go
into standby mode when it has received no audio signal for 15 minutes. The
subwoofer’s LED will glow white when the subwoofer is on and will not be
illuminated when the subwoofer is in standby.
If the • Power On Mode switch
2
is set to
ON
, the HKTS 210SUB will remain on
at all times. The HKTS 210SUB’s LED will glow white.
If the • External Trigger Input connector
5
is connected to a trigger-voltage
source, the HKTS 210SUB will turn on whenever a trigger voltage is present and
will turn off after the trigger voltage ceases, regardless of the position of the Power
On Mode switch
2
.
If you will be away from home for an extended period of time, or if you will not be
using the subwoofer for an extended period, switch the Power switch
8
to the
OFF
Position.
Subwoofer Adjustments: Volume
Use the Subwoofer Level control
3
to set the HKTS 210SUB’s volume. Turn the
knob clockwise to increase the subwoofer’s volume; turn the knob counterclockwise to
decrease the subwoofer’s volume.
Subwoofer Adjustments: Phase
The Phase switch
0
determines whether the HKTS 210SUB’s piston-like action moves
in and out in phase with the satellite speakers. If the subwoofer were to play out of
phase with the satellite speakers, the sound waves produced by the subwoofer could be
canceled out, reducing bass performance and sonic impact. This phenomenon depends
in part on the relative placement of all the speakers in the room.
Although in most cases the Phase switch
0
should be left in the
NORMAL
position,
there is no absolutely correct setting for the Phase switch
0
. When the HKTS 210SUB
is properly in phase with the satellite speakers, the sound will be clearer and have
maximum impact, making percussive sounds like drums, piano and plucked strings
sound more lifelike. The best way to set the Phase switch
0
is to listen to music
that you are familiar with and set the switch in the position that gives drums and other
percussive sounds maximum impact.
Subwoofer Adjustments: Bass Boost
When set to the
ON
position, the Bass Boost switch
1
enhances low-frequency
performance, resulting in bass with more impact, which you may prefer while watching
movies or listening to music. There is no harm in experimenting with this control – setting
the switch to the
OFF
position will return normal low-frequency performance.
