Frequently Asked Questions - SI Series S210 HK AUDIO

What are the differences between the S210 V and S210 P models?
The S210 V features a bass reflex port and has an IP44 protection class (splash water). The S210 P uses two passive radiators and offers IP66 protection (dust-tight and heavy water jets), suitable for unprotected outdoor use. The S210 P is also recommended for a 1:1 ratio with P10 speakers, while S210 V is 1:2.
How do I switch the impedance on the S210 subwoofer?
The impedance switch is recessed on the connection panel. Use a small tool to toggle between 4 Ω and 16 Ω. This allows flexible configuration when connecting multiple subwoofers to one amplifier channel. Ensure all subwoofers on the same channel use the same setting.
Can I use the S210 subwoofer outdoors?
Yes, but only the S210 P model with IP66 rating is suitable for unprotected outdoor areas. The S210 V (IP44) should only be used indoors or in covered outdoor spaces where it is protected from direct water exposure.
What mounting options are available for the S210?
The S210 can be mounted using the optional U-bracket on walls (perpendicular or parallel), ceilings, or flown. For two S210 units, use extension plates. The enclosure has dedicated mounting points (M8 countersunk screws). Always use original HK Audio accessories.
How do I connect multiple S210 subwoofers to one amplifier channel?
Connect the subwoofers in parallel using the two 4-pole connectors. The total impedance can be calculated using the formula for parallel resistors. Example: two S210 set to 4 Ω result in a 2 Ω load; set to 16 Ω gives 8 Ω. Ensure consistent switch settings on all units.
What filters should I use when combining S210 with SI SERIES P10 speakers?
For combination with SI SERIES P10, use the low-pass filter at 140 Hz. For universal use with any satellite speakers, use the 100 Hz low-pass. A No DSP preset is available for custom filtering by experienced users. Incorrect filtering can damage the transducers.
How should I maintain and inspect the S210 subwoofers?
Inspect all components annually for damage, wear, and proper tightness. Check for water ingress, rust, cracks, and loose screws. Replace sealing material (Isozell) if the cover plate is removed. Keep a logbook of inspections. Use threadlocking adhesive on all screw connections.
What are the safety precautions for installing the S210?
Installation must be performed by qualified personnel. Use two independent safeties for flown systems. Ensure sufficient load-bearing capacity and comply with local regulations. Wear a helmet and gloves during installation. Never stand under suspended speakers. Hearing protection is required above 95 dBA SPL.
Can I use non-original accessories with the S210?
No, only original HK Audio accessories (like the U-bracket and extension plates) are permitted. Using unauthorized accessories voids the warranty and may compromise safety and performance. The manufacturer cannot guarantee load-bearing capacity with non-original parts.
What is the maximum torque for the cover plate screws?
The outer screws of the cover plate must be tightened to a maximum of 2.6 Nm, and the inner screws to a maximum of 1 Nm. Tighten crosswise with gradually increasing torque to avoid warping and ensure proper sealing (IP rating).

Fixed and portable installations (in this case, speakers and mounting accessories) must be secured by two independent safeties to prevent them from falling. Safeties must be able to catch accessories or parts that are loose or may become loose. Ensure compliance with the given national regulations when using connecting, attaching, and rigging devices. Factor potential dynamic forces (jerk) into the equation when determining the proper size and load-bearing capacity of safeties.

HK AUDIO SI Series S210 - General Notes on Safety for Loudspeaker Systems - 4

Be sure to observe speaker stands' maximum load-bearing capacity. Note that for reasons of design and construction, most speaker stands are approved to bear centric loads only; that is, the speakers' mass has to be precisely centered and balanced. Ensure speaker stands are set up stably and securely. Take appropriate added measures to secure speaker stands, for example when:

- the flour or ground surface does not provide a stable, secure base.

- they are extended to heights that impede stability.

- high wind pressure may be expected.

- there is the risk that they may be knocked over by people.

Special measures may become necessary as precautions against unsafe audience behavior. Do not set up speaker stands in evacuation routes and emergency exits. Ensure corridors are wide enough and put proper barriers and markings in place when settling speaker stands up in passageways. Mounting and dismounting are especially hazardous tasks. Use aids suitable for this purpose. Observe the given national regulations when doing so.

3 Application Guide

3.1 Basic Use of S210 Subwoofers

The S210 V and S210 P subwoofers are suitable for a wide range of sound reinforcement applications. In particular, they are suitable for combination with the modular extendable SI SERIES P10 loudspeakers for installations under acoustically or with regard to their environmental conditions demanding conditions.

Basically, we recommend the following quantity ratio:

- S210 V: P10 = 1:2

- S210 P : P10 = 1 : 1

However, this ratio does not have to apply in every individual case, but depends significantly on the room acoustics. the required maximum sound pressure levels, the user requirements and many other aspects.

As a matter of principle, we recommend performing acoustic simulations during the planning phase using suitable software (EASE 4.4, EASE Focus 3). This is the only way to plan the necessary quantities and the optimal positioning/alignment of the S210 loudspeakers with good certainty.

10.17.00 V Temperature: 25.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0.00 V Signal: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 2…

3.2 Permitted Areas of Use and Environmental Conditions

The S210 V subwoofer is specified with protection class IP 44 according to EN 60529. Thus, the range of application includes all indoor areas, but also covered and roofed outdoor areas. The S210 V may be exposed to light dust/dirt loads and splash water.

The S210 P subwoofer, on the other hand, is specified with protection class IP 66 according to EN 60529. The conformity was confirmed by a test of an independent institute (TÜV SÜD Product Service GmbH). This results in an extended area of application, which allows installation in unroofed and unprotected outdoor areas in addition to all indoor areas. The S210 P may be exposed to strong dust/dirt loads as well as heavy loads from water.

In combination with the SI SERIES P10, the S210 P allows the composition of a complete system with the very high protection class IP 66.

Thus, installation projects can be realised even under the most difficult environmental conditions without having to compromise on the attainable audio quality.

All S210 subwoofers are also certified as ball impact proof according to DIN 18032-3. This was confirmed by testing of an independent institute (Materialprüfungsanstalt Universität Stuttgart). Therefore, the S210s may be installed in sports facilities with the loads typically encountered there.

HK AUDIO SI Series S210 - Permitted Areas of Use and Environmental Conditions - 1

3.3 Basic Filters for various Loudspeaker Combinations

Basically, the S210 are designed as neutral sound reinforcement tools and can be used with many different satellite speakers. However, they are particularly suitable for combination with the modular extendable SI SERIES P10 loudspeakers. These possibilities are taken into account by a range of preset basic filters on the acoustic side.

The filters are available both as ready-made preset files based on Lab.gruppen IPD and Lake, Powersoft Armonia+ and as an open table format (the latter based on Lab.gruppen IPD).

Basic filters with the following nomenclature are offered:

S210 System S210 100 Hz S210 No DSP
Low pass at 140 Hzfor combinationwith SI SERIES P10Low-pass filter at 100 Hzfor universal usewith any satellite speakersWithout any filtering,for application-specificadjustments

All the above-mentioned basic filters are also included in the simulation data in GLL format and can be used for the acoustic simulations recommended in 3.2.

In addition, a "No DSP" preset can be set in the simulation data, with which the expert user can also define application-specific filters.

This option is intended exclusively for professional users with in-depth knowledge of loudspeaker technology. In case of doubt, it is essential to seek the assistance of the manufacturer and/or a professional acoustician with practical sound reinforcement experience.

Caution: Incorrect operation, such as improper filtering, can lead to irreparable mechanical damage to the transducers!

4 Electrical Connections

The following section describes how to make the electrical connections and how to mount the cover plate.

HK AUDIO SI Series S210 - Electrical Connections - 1

Caution! The manufacturer's specification of protection classes IP 44 resp. IP 66 (529) for the overall construction only applies if the instructions in this section are ed during installation.

4.1 Electrical Connections for S210 V und S210 P

Two 4-pole connectors are available for wiring the S210 V or S210 P. These always have two poles and are electrically connected in parallel.

Before starting the cabling, the speaker cable (not yet stripped) must be pushed through the opened PG gland of the enclosed cover plate. Further notes on mounting the cover plate in 4.2.

HK 4 ohms 16 ohms

Only one conductor may be connected to each clamping point. It is not permissible to insert several conductors into the same clamping point, as these are not designed for this and could become loose in the long term.

HK AUDIO SI Series S210 - Electrical Connections for S210 V und S210 P - 2

As a general rule, we recommend that all connection cables be provided with (gas-tight) crimped wire and sleeves to prevent the oxidation of the conductors in the long term. Non-crimped (bare) conductors form an oxide layer in the long term, which worsens the contact resistance at the terminals. In practice, it has proven useful to connect one connection cable per connector, because this makes the actual assembly more convenient in confined spaces or when the cables are pulled in different directions. However, all conductors can also be inserted to only one connector, as they are electrically connected in parallel (as described above).

4.2 Mounting the Cover Plate

As described in 4.1, the connecting cable must be pushed through the opened PG gland(s) before making the electrical connections. The sealing material (Isazell) enclosed with the cover plate must be glued all around in the areas provided for this purpose on the back before installation. Make sure that it is glued neatly. Under no circumstances may the sealing material protrude to the side and/or be visible from the outside.

HK AUDIO SI Series S210 - Mounting the Cover Plate - 1

Note: It is not permissible to apply the sealing material (Isozell) directly to the enclosure. This will result in a lack of tightness.

6 sealing material (Isozell) 1

* Not included in delivery

As standard, the cover plate is provided with a sealing plug in one of the two PG glands. If the S210 loudspeaker is to be connected with only one cable, the sealing plug must remain in the PG gland. If a second cable is to be used (e.g. to connect another loudspeaker connected in parallel), the sealing plug must be removed accordingly for the cable feed-through.

Basically, only speaker cables with a round sheathing may be used. Individually insulated speaker cables would create a gap in the PG gland through which dust or water could penetrate.

The cover plate must be screwed crosswise and with gradually increasing torque. Under no circumstances may the cover plate lift at a corner or form a bulge along one side, as otherwise sufficient tightness cannot be guaranteed.

Caution! The maximum torque for tightening the outer screw connections of the cover plate is 2.6 Nm, for the inner screw connections the maximum torque is 1 Nm.

4.3 Service and Disassembly of the Cover Plate

If the cover plate has been removed for service purposes, it is essential to renew the sealing material (Isozell), as it will no longer seal properly after being compressed once. Care must be taken to ensure that the renewed Isozell is bonded to a clean surface, as its tightness could otherwise be impaired. We generally advise against the use of silicone/acrylic or similar substances instead of the Isozell, as it may be impossible to dismantle the cover plate for service purposes using such sealants.

HK AUDIO SI Series S210 - Service and Disassembly of the Cover Plate - 1

4.4 Connecting multiple S210 V or S210 P to one Power Amplifier Channel

The electrical impedance of the S210 can be switched between 4 ohms or 16 ohms. The switch integrated into the connection panel is recessed. It is best operated with a small tool.

With the help of this adjustable electrical impedance, individual or several S210s can be combined in such a way that the amplifier used in each case can be optimally utilised.

The manufacturer's specifications of the respective amplifier manufacturer or the project-specific planning documents incl. the respective wiring system apply.

The following equations apply to determine the connected total load:

- Equation for parallel connection:

R _ total = 1( 1R _ 1) + ( 1R _ 2) + ( 1R _ 3) + ... ( 1R _ n)

Example #1:

Connecting two S210s in parallel with the switch set to "4 ohms" results in a connected load of 2 ohms.

R _ total = 1/(1/4 Ω) + (1/4 Ω) = 2 Ω

4 ohms 1% ohms 4 ohms 1% ohms

Example #2:

Connecting two 5210 in parallel with the switch set to "16 ohms" results in a connected load of 8 ohms.

R _ total = 1/(1/1 6 Ω) + (1/1 6 Ω) = 8 Ω

4 ohms 15 ohms 4 ohms 15 ohms

Note: In principle, we recommend that all 5210s operated on the same power amplifier channel use the same switch setting (either 4 ohms or 16 ohms). Mixing different switch positions is not recommended, as this leads to an undesired shift of the level ratios.

For justified exceptions, it is essential to seek the assistance of the manufacturer and/or a professional acoustician with practical experience in sound reinforcement.

Non-observance of the specifications can lead to

uncontrolled movements or to system components or the entire loudspeaker system falling down.

The consequences can be serious or even fatal injuries.

HK AUDIO SI Series S210 - Intended use - 3

Caution: It is important to remember that all screw connections on subwoofers are subject to considerable mechanical vibration forces during operation and can loosen without suitable safety measures.

A possible loosening of the screw connections not only leads to possible rattling noises during operation, but can also be a safety-critical aspect due to the decreasing pretensioning force.

The choice of the appropriate assembly method (e.g. with the aid of thread locking adhesive, RIPP LOCK washers, etc.) depends on the environmental conditions of the respective installation and is the responsibility of the specialist company carrying out the work.

Note: If the screw connections are insufficiently executed, the ball impact safety certificate according to DIN 18032-3 is invalid. Therefore, please always ensure correct assembly based on these instructions.

HK AUDIO SI Series S210 - Intended use - 4

Caution: There are a total of four M5 screws with self-locking cap nuts in the joints of the U-bracket. Do not remove these screws under any circumstances! The screws must be checked for presence and tightness during the inspection.

8.) It is recommended to hand tighten the two pre-assembled screws immediately after inserting them into the hook openings.

9.) In the next step the two rear screws, which are also to be fitted with the rosettes, can be inserted into the rear openings of the bracket and screwed to the speaker enclosure.

10.) Afterwards, all screws must be tightened crosswise with gradually increasing torque until the bracket is firmly connected to the speaker.

1.) The assembly of the U-bracket parallel to a wall does not differ in principle from the assembly perpendicular to a wall, which is why the same assembly steps as in 5.4 are to be used for this.
2.) However, instead of the two rear mounting points, the two front mounting points (see 5.1) of the speaker enclosure must be used.
3.) It is recommended to position the loudspeaker enclosure so that the rubber feet are not facing towards the audience area.

1.) Mount the U-bracket on a ceiling or another surface with sufficient load-bearing capacity for overhead mounting (e.g. a steel beam or truss system).
2.) The choice of the appropriate mounting method depends on the conditions of the respective installation and is the responsibility of the specialist company carrying out the installation.
3.) Remove the M8 countersunk screws from the speaker enclosure.
4.) First, the two front screws must be fitted with the rosettes that are included with the delivery of the U-bracket. These rosettes adhere to the screw thread and do not slip during the following assembly steps.
5.) The screws fitted with the rosettes must now be pre-assembled in the enclosure. To do this, they should be screwed a few millimetres into the speaker enclosure.
6.) The subwoofer can now be hooked into the U-bracket.
7.) The pre-mounted screws are caught by the hook-shaped openings in the bracket and the subwoofer is immediately secured against slipping off during this mounting phase.

HK AUDIO SI Series S210 - U-bracket - Mounting parallel to a Wall - 12

Caution: All mounting materials may only be

attached to the two outer holes of the U-bracket. The hole in the middle is used e.g. for a cable feed-through or securing, but must not be used for carrying the speakers.

1.) The procedure for mounting the U-bracket to the speaker enclosure is no different from previous instructions, see 5.6.
2.) We recommend the use of M12 ring bolts (DIN 580 or equivalent), which can be fastened to the U-bracket with self-locking cap nuts and, if necessary, an additional RIPP LOCK washer. Depending on the mounting situation, it may be practical to first mount these to the U-bracket before connecting it to the loudspeaker.
3.) The range of use of flown S210 subwoofers is limited to fixed installation in wind protected areas. Other areas and purposes of use are not permitted.

1.) The extension plates are basically supplied as a set consisting of four parts (see 5.3). They are used whenever two S210s are to be installed on the ceiling or for a flown installation.
2.) The shim plates serve as height compensation. To do this, they must be placed on the lower speaker, with the U-bracket placed on the upper speaker.
3.) The extension plates must then be placed over the resulting surface with the same height.
4) The following screw connections must be made through both the U-bracket and the two plates.
5.) As with all other previous assembly instructions (see 5.4), the M8 screws with the M8 rosettes located in the loudspeaker enclosure must be used for this.
6.) The described mounting of the extension plates is applicable to both ceiling mounting with max. two S210 and flown installation with max. two S210.
