Wharfedale 12 ACTIVE Portable Speaker User Manual


 
1. Heat Sink: The heat sink allows for dissipation of heat build up from the amplifier
via air cooling at the rear of the enclosure.
2. HI and LOW EQ (equalization) controls: These knobs control the equalization of the
overall output signal providing +/- 10dB in each frequency range.
3. POWERON’ indicator LED and LIMIT indicator LED: The bracketed LED to the left
of the POWER switch illuminates when the power switch is in the ‘ON’ position. The
LIMIT LED illuminates when the signal limiter is actively limiting the level of the signal
to prevent distortion and overload.
4. VOLUME controls for INPUT A and INPUT B: These knobs control the volume of
each input channel.
5. POWER ON / OFF switch: This switch turns the power on and off.
6. RCA L / R (Left and Right) input jacks: These jacks provide for the input of a stereo
signal (left and right). The signal is actively combined or “summed” providing a mono
signal to the amplifier.
7. BRO™ Bass Response Optimizer circuit switch: The BRO™ circuit, when
engaged, allows for enhanced low frequency response at lower volume levels.
8. GAIN selection switch: This switch selects the proper gain structure for INPUT A. If
a microphone is connected to INPUT A, use the HIGH selection (up). If the signal
source is anything other than a microphone (playback device, keyboard or mixer
output, for instance) use the LOW selection (down).
9. Output source “LOOP / MIX” switch: In the “LOOP” mode, this switch routes the
signal of INPUT B to the line level XLR OUTPUT jack, bypassing the EQ section and
volume control. When in the MIX mode, this switch routes the combined (or “mixed”)
signals of both INPUT A and INPUT B to the line level XLR OUTPUT jack.
10. XLR / ¼” COMBO input jacks for INPUT A and INPUT B:
These convenient jacks
provide for either XLR or ¼” balanced input connections to INPUT A and INPUT B.
11. POWER cord jack: This is a jack for a standard IEC, three prong, grounded AC
electrical connection cord. Be sure that you are plugging into the correct source
voltage that matches what is indicated just below the power cord jack.
12. XLR line level OUTPUT jack: This jack provides a balanced line level output of
INPUT A and INPUT B signals (in MIX mode) or INPUT B signal only (in LOOP mode)
for connection to additional Titan 12 ACTIVEs, powered subwoofers or amplifiers.
