Operations�with�an�Additional�Subwoofer

If you want to operate the SCENA 15 with an additional K&F subwoofer, you must activate the filter
button B (100Hz mode) on the CD 44 for the SCENA 15. In doing so, you will get an optimal coupling
to the K&F subwoofer systems.

1�Channel�Mode

Activate 'Filter B' for the
LSBlock [SCENA 15 1CH].

2�Channel�Mode

Activate 'Filter B' for the LSBlocks
[SCENA 15 2CH LF] and [SCENA 15 2CH HF.].

If necessary, adjust the correct level balance with the output gain of the subwoofer on the CD 44.

Wiring�instructions

Important

Before connecting your SCENA 15 loudspeaker switch off all equipment and turn down all level
controls.

Only use high-quality speaker cables with a sufficient wire gauge. The wire gauge depends on
the length of the speaker cable.
Minimum�Wire�Gauge�(mm²)
=�Required�Cable�Length�(m)�/�(2�x�Speaker�Impedance�(Ω))

For connections to the power amplifier inputs, please use 2-pin shielded microphone cable (bal-
anced) with high-quality connectors.

Avoid ground loops.

Please pay attention to the pin assignments shown in this manual.

Make sure that the +/- polarity of the speakers at the amplifier is correct. When simultaneously
using power amplifiers from different manufacturers, be sure to use the correct specific pin con-
figuration. It may be necessary to modify the pin configuration on the power amplifiers or on
the connectors leading to them.

Upon completing the wiring, ensure that the connected speaker channels 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.

If several loudspeakers are connected, the signal can be linked through parallel from one loud-
speaker to the next. Please make sure that the total impedance of the loudspeakers R(Ω) is not
lower than the minimal impedance indicated on the power amplifier.
