5. Stereo Input & Parallel
Thru Jacks
For normal operation, connect the ES700P
just like an ordinary speaker, along with
the Full-Range speakers and set the Input
Level switch to SPEAKER. If the audio
source does not have a ground pin on the
AC cord, the Input Ground switch must
be set to GROUND (GND). The ES700P
may be plugged in before or after the
Full-Range speakers. Use the Left and
Right Inputs when using a single ES700P
in a stereo system. Use either the Left or
the Right inputs when using separate
ES700P's for each side (or when used in a
Mono system). The ES700P does not alter
the signal to the Full-Range speakers, and
will not draw any power from the host
amplifier driving them. Please note that an
external crossover is not necessary.
As well as accommodating the full
range speakers, the PARALLEL THRU jacks
allow many ES700Ps to be connected in a
string (or otherwise in parallel). There is no
practical limit to the number of ES700Ps
that may be connected together.
6. Protection
The ES700P has circuitry to prevent
clipping, over current and over excursion.
The circuitry does not alter the frequency
response as the level changes. At high
levels the limiter will limit the gain of the
ES700P and hence if the user attempts
to set the subwoofer level control at high
levels the resulting setting will be incorrect.
The level control should be set while
operating at low levels (under 10 watts).
If the level control is set to high due to
setting it at high operating levels the input
circuit will clip and the dynamics of the
bass will be lost. This can happen without
audible distortion since the filters will filter
out the distortion.
