Frequently Asked Questions - A 112A DYNACORD

What is the maximum SPL of the Dynacord A 112A?
The maximum SPL (1 m, calculated) is 121 dB.
What type of amplifier does the A 112A use?
It uses a Class D dual-channel power amplifier (bi-amping) with 500 W peak power and 420 W RMS.
How do I set up the A 112A as a main PA speaker?
Place the speaker on a pole stand at about 1.8 m height. Connect a mixer to LINE 1 via XLR cable. Set LEVEL and VOLUME to 0 dB, select FULL RANGE and MAIN. Power on the mixer first, then the speaker. Adjust levels from the mixer.
Can the A 112A be used as a floor monitor?
Yes. Set the speaker mode switch to MONITOR to activate optimized DSP for floor monitoring. The cabinet has a 60° monitor angle for this purpose.
How do I daisy-chain multiple A 112A speakers?
Use the LINK OUTPUT (XLR) to connect to the next speaker's input. Set the SELECT switch to MIX to send the mixed signal of both input channels to the link output, or to LINE 1 to pass only the LINE 1 signal pre-fader.
What is the LO-CUT switch for?
When using the A 112A with a subwoofer that does not have a low-cut output, set LO-CUT to activate a 100 Hz high-pass filter. This prevents the full-range speaker from reproducing low frequencies that are better handled by the subwoofer.
What are the audio input options on the A 112A?
It has two combo XLR/TRS inputs: LINE 1 (line level only) and INPUT 2 (switchable between line and mic level). Additionally, there is a stereo RCA AUX input. All inputs are summed internally.
How does the LIMIT indicator work?
The LIMIT LED lights when the amplifier reaches its power limit. Occasional blinking is normal due to the DSP clip limiter preventing distortion. Continuous lighting indicates the input level should be reduced to avoid sound degradation. It may also light when the amplifier is overheated.
What should I do if the A 112A overheats?
The amplifier will automatically shut down to protect itself. Ensure adequate cooling and shade. The operating temperature range is 0°C to 40°C. Allow the speaker to cool down before resuming use.
Does the A 112A have any user-serviceable parts?
No. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel. The rear panel acts as a heat sink and may be hot during operation. Do not attempt to open the unit or perform any internal maintenance.

1 Introduction

The DYNACORD powered A-Line series includes three models: a 12-inch, two-way full-range; a 15-inch, two-way full-range; and a perfectly matching 18-inch subwoofer. All three models feature solid 15-mm plywood enclosures that combine durability with low weight. A high-quality black paint finish and steel grille offer road-ready ruggedness and a professional appearance. The full-range models are equipped with a 12-inch EVS-12K woofer (A 112A), a 15-inch EVS-15K (A 115A) and provide an 1.5" titanium diaphragm compression driver radiating into a 90 x 50-degree (H x V) high-frequency waveguide. Both of the cabinets provide an asymmetrical footprint with a 60-degree monitor angle allowing for alternative use as a powered floor monitor.

The onboard power modules of A 112A and A 115A combine lightweight Class-D dual-channel power amplifiers (biamping) with a total of 500 W dynamic peak power, along with the digital signal processing for crossover (24 dB/octave slope), EQ and advanced digital speaker protection. The linearization of transfer function in both cabinets is provided by state-of-the-art FIR filter technology.

The operating and connector panels are designed for intuitive operation and versatile connectivity. The 2-channel mixer section offers a XLR/TRS combo connector Line 1, stereo RCA sockets and a level control in the Input 1 channel, and a second XLR/TRS combo connector Line 2 which is switchable for microphone or line sensitivity in channel Input 2. For daisy-chaining to other devices, there is a XLR link output available which can be set to provide either the Line 1 or the mix signal.

In the Master section we find the overall Volume control, along with a switch for selecting the dedicated EQ setting for either Main or Monitor operation. A second switch activates a high-pass filter when using the full-range cabinets in combination with a powered subwoofer (A 118A).

The powered subwoofer A 118A features a similar power module with 400 W peak power, Master Volume control, a phase-inversion switch, a XLR/TRS combo input connector, and a XLR link output socket.

Setting up a small - yet very powerful - system turns out to be a piece of cake when combining with DYNACORD CMS mixing consoles (e.g. CMS 600-3). They are the perfect fit and offer a broad range of advanced features in concert sound quality.

DYNACORD A 112A - INPUT CONNECTOR FOR AUDIO SIGNAL (LINE 1/INPUT) - 1

Electronically balanced input for the connection of a line level signal source, such as mixer, signal processor, etc. Establishing a connection is possible via TRS or XLR-type plugs. Whenever possible, balanced signal feed is always preferable to guard against potential noise or HF-interference.

LINK OUTPUT
DYNACORD A 112A - OUTPUT CONNECTOR FOR AUDIO SIGNAL (LINK OUTPUT) - 1

This output socket is for the connection of an additional powered loudspeaker or subwoofer. The output signal is electronically balanced with a maximum level of +18 dBu. Output impedance is 150 ohms.

For the A 112A or A 115A, the output signal is based on the selection made at the signal source selection switch SELECT.

5 LIMIT INDICATOR (LIMIT)

DYNACORD A 112A - LIMIT INDICATOR (LIMIT) - 1

The LIMIT indicator signals the device is operating at the internal power amp's limit. Frequent blinking of the LED is acceptable, since the incorporated DSP clip limiter prevents distortion. Continuous lighting indicates that you have to be aware of degradation in the outputted sound. In that case, the input level has to be reduced. The LIMIT LED also lights if the output level is reduced because of high amplifier temperature.

6 VOLUME LEVEL CONTROL (VOLUME)

DYNACORD A 112A - VOLUME LEVEL CONTROL (VOLUME) - 1

DYNACORD A 112A - AUX CONNECTOR FOR AUDIO SIGNAL (AUX L/R) - 1

Stereo unbalanced RCA inputs AUX L/R for connecting sources such as CD players or MP3 players. Both RCA inputs are summed and can be controlled with IN-

PUT 1 LEVEL. The inputs can be used simultaneously with the XLR/TRS LINE 1 connector.

10 SIGNAL SOURCE SELECTION SWITCH (SELECT)

DYNACORD A 112A - SIGNAL SOURCE SELECTION SWITCH (SELECT) - 1

Use the SELECT switch for selecting the output signal of the LINK OUTPUT connector.

LINE 1

LINE 1 allows the pre-fader signal from LINE 1 input to pass to LINK OUTPUT (see illustration 2-1). The LINK OUTPUT signal level is not affected by the setting of the INPUT 1 LEVEL control. The signal from AUX L/R is not passed to LINK OUTPUT in this switch position.

SELECT LINE 1 MIX LINE 1

Illustration 2-1: Signal flow LINE 1

MIX

The post-fader audio signals of INPUT 1 (LINE 1 and AUX) and INPUT 2 are mixed and passed to LINK OUTPUT (see illustration 2-2). The ratio of the input signals changes when the level controls INPUT 1 and INPUT 2 are turned. MIX allows the loudspeaker to act as a basic two-channel mixer that can send the mix to another loudspeaker via the LINK OUTPUT connector.

11 SPEAKER MODE SELECTION SWITCH (MAIN/MONITOR)

DYNACORD A 112A - SPEAKER MODE SELECTION SWITCH (MAIN/MONITOR) - 1

Select MONITOR to activate optimized signal processing for floor monitoring applications. MAIN works best for music

playback and applications that require enhanced bass and treble.

12 SELECTION SWITCH FOR MAIN MODE (FULL RANGE/LOCUT)

DYNACORD A 112A - SELECTION SWITCH FOR MAIN MODE (FULL RANGE/LOCUT) - 1

If the speaker is used as a full-range system, select FULL RANGE. If a subwoofer without a low-cut signal output is used, i.e. the identical audio signal is used for the A 112A/A 115A and the subwoofer,

select LO-CUT for activating the internal 100 Hz low-cut filter of the A 112A/A 115A. If the A 112A/A 115A is connected to the HI-OUT output of a subwoofer with integrated low-cut filter, select FULL RANGE to avoid having the two low-cut filters of the subwoofer and A 112A/A 115A in series.

The setting LO-CUT can also be used for delay applications, when a high bass level is not necessary.

13 INPUT 1 LEVEL CONTROL (LEVEL)

DYNACORD A 112A - INPUT 1 LEVEL CONTROL (LEVEL) - 1

Level control for adjusting the amplification of the signal at the LINE 1 and AUX L/R input.

Level control for adjusting the amplification of the signal at the INPUT 2 input.

2.2 Power Amplifier and Cooling

This is a powered loudspeaker with a very high efficient amplifier module and as a result does not overheat. The temperature of the amplifier module is monitored. In the rare event it does get too hot, it will automatically shut down to protect itself. Once the temperature has returned to within the operating range, the amplifier will turn back on. This may happen when the speaker is operated in very high ambient temperatures and the enclosure is exposed to direct sunlight. Always ensure adequate cooling and appropriate shade to keep the ambient temperature around the speaker within the specified operating temperature range.

CAUTION: The rear panel of the amplifier module serves as a heat sink for the power amplifier. Certain parts may be hot during operation.

2.3 Quickstart

This section outlines setup and operation of two A 112A connected to a DYNACORD CMS mixer.

CAUTION: After system installation is complete, power on the mixing console first and position the master faders at the lowest setting before powering on the A 112A. Use the output faders to establish the desired volume setting. Otherwise, switching and power-on noise or the high level audio signal of an inadvertently playing audio source could result in high acoustic outputs, which in some cases might lead to hearing damage.

  1. Place the A 112A, mounted on pole-mount stands to the left and to the right. The lower edges of the speaker systems should be approximately at a height of 1.8 meters to provide sufficient coverage and to prevent that listeners nearby are subject to extreme sound levels.

  2. Using suitable XLR-type cables connect the Master Outputs of your mixing console, e.g. DYNACORD CMS 1000, to LINE 1 of the left or right A 112A. Position the master faders on the mixer to the minimum setting. Now, turn on the mixer.

  3. Connect the A 112A to the mains outlet using the supplied mains cord. Plug the connector into the MAINS IN socket. Use the POWER switch to power-up the A 112A.

  4. Set the LEVEL and VOLUME controls of the A 112A to 0 dB.

  5. Select FULL RANGE and MAIN to operate the speakers as a main PA system.

  6. Connect a audio source, e.g. CD player, to a line level input of the mixer, e.g. CMS 1000. Set all rotary con-

trols of the mixing console input channel to their center position. Adjust the input channel's 'Gain' control so that the Peak LED should not light at all or blink only once in a while.

  1. Slowly raise channel fader and master faders on the mixing console to the desired positions - i.e. volume settings.

  2. Your system is now ready for operation. Individual sound adjustments necessary can be made using the controls of the mixer's corresponding input channels.

  3. Now have fun with your A 112A system!

  4. After use, first switch off the A 112A and then the mixing console, so that distracting power-off noise will not occur. When using a DYNACORD CMS mixer, no power-off noise will be output from the 'Master Outputs'. This allows switching off the mixer first without a problem.
