Auro Active Subwoofer
5
Quick Start
Unpack the Auro subwoofer and all included components. Be
sure to save the packaging in case you ever move, or need to
send the unit for service.
Set the Auro subwoofer and satellite speaker(s) appropriately for
the performance venue. The enclosure has a 1
3
/
8” speaker pole
receptacle, so you can mount a satellite speaker directly on top
of the subwoofer using a satellite mounting pole (such as the
Samson TS20).
Turn all speakers off, and turn the level controls completely
down (figure 1).
Connect a line-level signal from your mixer (or other source) to
a LINE INPUT jack on the Auro subwoofer. If you are using a
single subwoofer with stereo satellite speakers, connect the left
and right output of the mixer to the stereo (Channel A & B) input
jacks on the Auro D1200 or D1500 (figure 2).
Connect an XLR cable from the THRU output of the Auro D1200
or HIGH PASS output of the Auro D1500 to the line input of
your active satellite speaker(s) or power amplifiers (figure 3).
Plug the supplied power cable into an AC outlet and turn the
Power switch on your Auro subwoofer and satellite speaker(s) to
the ON position.
Note: Always make sure that the AC outlet used with this unit
is configured with the correct voltage, as indicated on the rear
panel of the Auro loudspeaker.
Run an audio signal (such as music from an MP3 player) from
your mixer, and check that you are getting good levels using the
mixer’s output meter.
Slowly raise the satellite speaker(s) level control until you have
reached a comfortable level. Then raise the Auro subwoofer
LEVEL control until you have reached a level that sits well within
the rest of the mix (figure 4).
If you notice the LIMITER indicator blinking frequently, turn
down the LEVEL control on the Auro subwoofer until the
LIMITER indicator does not light, or only lights occasionally with
signal peaks.
