Frequently Asked Questions - SC-412 QSC AUDIO

How to install the SC-412 loudspeaker?
The system consists of two components: the HF-75 (high frequency) and the LF-4115 (low frequency). Attach the HF-75 on top of the LF-4115 using three 5/16-18 bolts 19 mm long. Orient the horn horizontally before tightening, then adjust the vertical tilt via the adjustable bracket. Use filter grease on the bolts to prevent loosening due to vibrations.
What type of amplifier should I use?
The SC-412 requires external amplification. For the HF section (8 ohms), use an amplifier delivering at least 60 W RMS. For the LF section (4 ohms), the recommended amplifier can provide up to 1,100 W RMS. Ensure you use active signal processing (high-pass filter at 700 Hz for HF and low-pass filter at 1,000 Hz for LF).
How to connect the wiring?
Connect the amplifier signal to the HF INPUT terminals (respect polarity: + to +, - to -). The HF OUTPUT terminals are pre-wired to the compression driver and should not be modified. For LF, use the input terminals; the OUTPUT terminals allow connecting a second LF-4115 in parallel. Use stranded cable up to #10 AWG.
What safety precautions should be taken?
Before any installation, inspect the hardware and brackets. Use only mounting hardware suitable for the load. Never exceed the nominal specifications. Have repairs carried out by qualified personnel. The system can produce high sound levels (up to 133 dB) – wear hearing protection if necessary.
Is the HF-75 protected against damage?
Yes, the HF-75 includes protection via DC-blocking capacitors and a power limiter. A response correction filter smoothens the response curve. However, never apply a full-range signal: active filtering (high-pass at 700 Hz) is mandatory upstream.
What is the sound coverage of the SC-412?
The HF horn provides coverage of 90° horizontal and +15° to -35° vertical (50° total, adjustable). The LF enclosure covers 100° horizontal and 55° vertical at 1 kHz. This ensures uniform listening throughout the cinema auditorium.
What equalization settings are recommended?
For HF, use a high-pass filter at 700 Hz with a slope of 24 dB/octave. For LF, a subsonic filter below 30 Hz (slope > 18 dB/octave) is recommended. Detailed parameters for QSC processors are available at www.qscaudio.com.
Can I suspend or mount the loudspeaker on the ceiling?
No, the LF-4115 enclosure is not designed to be suspended. It must be placed on the floor or a stable surface. The HF-75 attaches only on top of the LF-4115. Any suspension or swinging is prohibited for safety reasons.
What is the warranty for the SC-412?
QSC offers a limited 3-year warranty from the date of purchase, covering manufacturing defects and materials. To benefit from the warranty, return the product with prepaid shipping and proof of purchase. The warranty does not cover damage due to misuse, incorrect installation, or alteration of the serial number.

QSC AUDIO SC-412 - 1

Developed specifically for the unique requirements of professional motion picture playback, the SC-412 extends QSC's commitment to the cinema market. As a member of the DCS Digital Cinema Speaker Series, the SC-412 is a two-way, bi-amplified screen channel loudspeaker system comprised of two main units—the HF-75 high-frequency system and the LF-4115 low-frequency system.

The HF-75 high-frequency system features a 3" large format (75mm) titanium diaphragm compression driver mounted on a custom designed high-frequency cinema horn with an adjustable pan and tilt bracket. The HF-75 includes a driver protection and equalization network. DC blocking capacitors protect against DC or low-frequency signals that would likely destroy an unprotected driver. Power limiter circuitry protects the driver from overpowering and a response correction filter smoothes the frequency response of the horn/ driver combination. The driver and equalization network provides for more reliable operation, ensuring the show will go on.

The LF-4115 15" (381mm) low-frequency enclosure is designed specifically to address the extended low-frequency response required for cinema applications. The LF-4115 covers the frequency range from 35 Hz to 1000 Hz, depending upon the high-frequency system requirements.

The SC-412 is designed for ease of installation. The HF-75 components come pre-assembled to reduce field assembly time. Three bolts are all that are required to secure the HF-75 to the top of the LF-4115 enclosure.

Cinema Loudspeaker Systems User Manual

HF-75 High Frequency Component

Introduction

The HF-75 is the high frequency component of the SC-412 and SC-422 two-way, biamplified screen channel loudspeakers for high performance cinema applications. The system is shipped as two separate components: the HF-75 high frequency system and the LF-4115 or LF-4215 woofer system.

The HF-75 high-frequency system features a large format, 3'' (75mm) titanium diaphragm compression driver mounted on a custom designed high-frequency cinema horn with an adjustable pan and tilt bracket. The horn features broad horizontal and vertical coverage angles to ensure coverage of every seat in the auditorium. The horn is a low-distortion waveguide providing highly articulate dialogue without the "honky" coloration associated with conventional horn loudspeakers.

The HF-75 includes a driver protection and equalization network. DC blocking capacitors protect against DC or low-frequency signals that would likely destroy an unprotected driver. Power limiter circuitry protects the driver from over-powering and a response correction filter smoothes the frequency response of the horn/driver combination. The driver and equalization network provides for more reliable operation, ensuring the show will go on.

The HF-75 components come pre-assembled to reduce field assembly time. Three bolts are all that are required to secure the HF-75 to the top of the low frequency enclosure.

Mounting

Refer to the illustration for mounting information. The HF-75 attaches to the top of the LF-4115 or LF-4215 with three 5/16-18 bolts, 0.75'' long, with lock washers. We recommend the use of serviceable thread locking compound when installing the bolts to prevent loosening due to vibration. Aim the horn in the horizontal plane (pan) before tightening. Adjust the vertical tilt with the bracket adjustment.

Cinema Loudspeaker Systems User Manual

LF-4115 Low Frequency Loudspeaker

Introduction

The LF-4115 15" (381mm) low frequency enclosure is designed specifically for cinema applications. Meeting cinema requirements for extended low frequency response differentiates the LF-4115 from more conventional "rock-and-roll" woofer systems. The LF-4115 covers the frequency range from 33 Hertz to 1200 Hertz, depending upon the high frequency system requirements.

The custom 400 watt, 15^ transducer was developed specifically for cinema use. It features a 4^ (100mm) voice coil, 120 oz.(3.4kg) ceramic magnet, and a multi-vented pole piece to ensure cool operation. cooler temperatures increase transducer lifespan and decrease the problem of power compression at high power levels. An undercut pole piece ensures the voice coil operates in a symmetrical magnetic gap, reducing second order harmonic distortion. The suspension and voice coil of the transducer have been designed to provide low distortion and high impact bass at high power.

The enclosure is constructed of high quality medium density fiberboard panels with stiffening braces on all six panels. Both internal and external port openings are fully radiused ensuring smooth air flow at higher power levels, preventing audible port turbulence.

Bass ports are symmetrically spaced on each side of the transducer, making internal pressure more uniform across the back surface of the transducer. This prevents the cone from being displaced to one side or another by unbalanced forces, reducing the chance of driving the voice coil out of the center of the gap at high power.

Three T-nuts in the top of the enclosure provide easy mounting of QSC's HF-75 high frequency system, or MH-1063 mid-high system.
