Earthquake Sound Front-Firing Kompressor S12 - Manual

Connecting Your Kompressor (S-10 & S-12)
Low level -RCA- audio input connection:
This is the best way to drive an audio signal into the
Kompressor subwoofer. Today, all signal processors(5.1/6.1 and more
advanced ones) come equipped with built-in pre-amplifier outputs
(RCA) that include a subwoofer output.
Generally, the SUB/OUT is in mono format. As shown in the
photos across, connect the SUB/OUT from the processor to the
Kompressor using a "Y" connector to feed both RCA inputs of the
subwoofer.
We strongly recommend that you use the best available RCA
connectors and cables. High quality cables are normally triple shielded,
and the connectors are gold plated with forceful grasping (refer to
Earthquake line of accessories- SI superior Interconnect - at
www.earthquakesound.com).
High level audio input connection:
This is the least desired way to drive an
audio signal into the subwoofer. Older stereo
systems are not equipped with pre-amplifier audio
outputs, normally they come with stereo speaker
outputs (left & right).
Using "banana" plugs, connect the speaker
outputs to the corresponding Subwoofer high level
inputs (marked "FROM RECEIVER). In this
configuration, the front stereo speakers (towers)
can be powered up by connecting them to the
subwoofer speaker outputs (marked "TO
SPEAKERS"). The amount of power (watts) driven
into the stereo speakers (towers) is identical to the
amount of power (watts) fed into the SuperNova
from the stereo system (ratio 1:1).

AC power connection:
The Kompressor subwoofer is designed to run in 110V
and 220V/240V. The power socket if fused to protect the
amplifier from surges. Do not over-fuse, replace the fuse with
identical value.
