10. Operating the Speakers
−
Switch off all equipment and make sure that the SP speakers are not connected to a
power source.
−
Connect your SP systems in accordance with the preceding connection diagrams.
Use only mains cables, which comply with your national safety regulations.
−
Upon completing the wiring, ensure that the connected speakers are working in phase. To
do so, use i.e. a phase checker. A phase error can also be recognized when the connected
channels are used simultaneously. During simultaneous use the bass frequencies become
notably quieter or the mid-frequencies such as voices cannot be located.
−
Switch on first the peripheral units (mixer, effects, etc.), then, if used, the K&F System
Controller and connect lastly the ‘SP’ loudspeakers to the mains voltage. Always use the
before mentioned switching order. Otherwise switching noises may damage the system.
−
If there is interference, turn off all appliances in the reverse order and check all cable
connections. Next, turn up all other peripheral units, and check these for interference.
−
Your system should now be ready for operation.
−
You can now turn up the level on the mixer.
−
If you are using additional bass systems you can now balance the respective volume
levels of the top speakers and bass systems. A fine adjustment of the system without a
K&F System Controller can be obtained using the gain control on the SP loudspeakers
(not on the mixing console!).
−
When switching off the system first disconnect the ‘SP’ loudspeakers from the mains
voltage. Then you can switch off the remaining units.
11. Touching Up Damage to Paint / Changing the Front Foam
Although the PU structured paint used by KLING & FREITAG is extremely resistant, we
recommend using protective covers or cases to help avoid damaging the paint during
i.e. continuous mobile use. If paint damage occurs despite these precautions, it can be
touched up by using commercial acrylic paint in the appropriate RAL colour of the
speaker. To replace the filter foam, send the front grille incl. foam to KLING & FREITAG
GmbH. Upon payment for expenses, the grille with the new covering will be returned.
