Frequently Asked Questions - SUB 915 DB Technologies

How to turn on the SUB 915 subwoofer?
Connect the supplied PowerCON TRUE1 power cable to the mains connector, then insert and turn the connector to lock. The subwoofer turns on automatically. Set the input sensitivity to 0 dB before powering on.
What to do if the subwoofer does not turn on?
Check that the power cable is properly inserted and that the mains socket works. Check the fuse (MAINS FUSE holder). If the problem persists, contact an authorized repairer.
Why is there no sound?
Check that the audio signal reaches the XLR input and that the cable is not damaged. Make sure the source (mixer) is active and the input sensitivity is high enough. The Signal/ON LED should be on.
How to connect a passive speaker to the subwoofer?
Connect the subwoofer's XOVER/LINK output to the speaker's input. Set the Xover/Link selector to XOVER and choose the desired crossover frequency (70-110 Hz) with the rotary control.
What is the difference between Link and Xover modes?
In Link mode, the output signal is the same as that applied to the woofer. In Xover mode, the signal is filtered according to the selected crossover frequency (typically 120 Hz to relay to speakers).
Can I use the subwoofer outdoors?
Yes, the wooden cabinet with protective paint allows indoor and outdoor use under cover. Avoid direct exposure to rain or excessive humidity.
How to adjust the subwoofer delay?
Use the Subwoofer Delay rotary control to set a delay from 0 to 4.5 ms (in 0.5 ms steps). This allows temporal alignment of the subwoofer with other speakers.
What does the Limiter LED mean?
The Limiter LED lights up when the internal protection circuit is active (peak, RMS, or thermal limiting). This indicates that the subwoofer is being pushed to its limits. Reduce the input level to avoid distortion.
How to update the firmware?
Use the USB Data Service port (USB type B connector) to connect the subwoofer to a computer. Download the latest firmware from dbtechnologies.com and follow the instructions in the manual.
Can I stack other speakers on the subwoofer?
Yes, the subwoofer has an M20 pre-disposition for a 35 mm pole. Use the DS2-S or DS-2 accessory to install a speaker on top. Secure it firmly to prevent tipping.

2. FIRST POWER-UP

The package of SUB 915 / SUB 918 subwoofer contains:

• 915 or 918 subwoofer
• POWERCON TRUE1 power cable
- quick start user manual and warranty documents in hard copy

CONFIGURATION AND OPTIMISATION

The subwoofer will turn on after inserting, turning and connecting the powerCON TRUE1 ^® connector to the power supply.

For subwoofer use optimisation in given configurations, the control panel displays the following:

- Xover/Link [Hz]:

  1. Link (the signal present at OUTPUTS is the one applied to the woofer)
  2. Xover (the signal present at OUTPUTS is filtered with a crossover frequency of 120 Hz, for daisy chain to a speaker, such as B-HYPE and OPERA)

- Subwoofer Polarity:

  1. Normal (audio signal normal polarity)
  2. Reverse (reverse polarity, useful for wavefront optimisation through acoustic wave phase reversal)

- Subwoofer Delay:

It is possible to select the applicable delay for various configurations, according to what is stated on the silk-screen print.

In the event of a connection between subwoofer and speaker:

  1. Connect mixer output to subwoofer input connector
  2. Connect subwoofer output connector to speaker input.
  3. Set subwoofer OUTPUT XOVER/LINK [4] to XOVER, in order to daisy-chain a signal to the speaker having a crossover frequency that can be selected with the Xover/Link rotary control [Hz]

  • Types of installation other than those here described are not allowed.
  • Never use the handles to suspend the subwoofer
  • Always check that the positioning is stable and that the installation does not pose a danger to people, animals or property.

FLOOR USAGE

915 and 918 subwoofers may be used directly on the floor.

USAGE WITH SPEAKER IN A STACK

A speaker may be installed directly on 915 or 918 subwoofer by means of a DS2-S 35 mm diameter mini-pole (e.g. series: INGENIA, B-HYPE, OPERA).

An additional fastener is required.

4. TROUBLESHOOTING

The subwoofer will not turn on:

  1. Check that power supply is present upstream of the installation.
  2. Ensure that the power supply cable is properly plugged in.

The subwoofer turns on but produces no sound:

  1. Check that the input connection of the audio signal is correctly performed.
  2. Check the cables for damage.
  3. Ensure that the mixer or audio source is on and an output signal is present.
  4. Check the general level through the "Input Sensitivity" control.

Loudspeaker sound is inappropriate:

  1. Check the cables for damage and replace them as required (a damaged cable may lead to signal loss or alteration).
  2. Check that the settings on the control panel are correctly set.
