Instellen en installeren
Proper installation is crucial for the performance and safety of your subwoofer. It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified professional.
Overwegingen bij de behuizing
The DBXi-15D is designed for various enclosure types, including sealed and ported configurations. Consult with an audio specialist or refer to specific enclosure design guidelines for optimal performance based on your desired sound characteristics.
Bedrading
The DBXi-15D features a dual 4-ohm voice coil. This configuration allows for flexible wiring options to achieve different impedance loads (e.g., 2-ohm or 8-ohm) at your amplifier. Zorg ervoor dat uw amplifier is stable at the chosen impedance. Refer to your ampRaadpleeg de handleiding van de versterker voor compatibele impedantiebelastingen.
- Parallel Wiring (2-ohm load): Verbind de positieve aansluitingen van beide spreekspoelen met elkaar en de negatieve aansluitingen van beide spreekspoelen ook met elkaar. Verbind vervolgens deze gecombineerde positieve en negatieve aansluitingen met uw ampverliezer.
- Series Wiring (8-ohm load): Connect the positive terminal of one voice coil to the negative terminal of the other voice coil. Then connect the remaining positive and negative terminals to your ampverliezer.

Gebruiksaanwijzing
Stroomvereisten
The DBXi-15D subwoofer has a maximum output power of 2000 Watts. Ensure your amplifier can provide adequate power without clipping or distortion. Matching the amplifier's RMS power output to the subwoofer's RMS power handling is recommended for optimal performance and longevity.
Inloopperiode
Allow a break-in period of approximately 10-20 hours of moderate use before operating the subwoofer at high volumes. This allows the suspension components to loosen and reach their optimal compliance.
Volume and Gain Settings
Pas je aan amplifier's gain setting carefully. Do not use the gain control as a volume knob. Set the gain to match the output voltage of your head unit to prevent distortion and potential damage to the subwoofer.
Onderhoud
Regular maintenance helps preserve the performance and appearance of your subwoofer.
- Schoonmaak: Gebruik een zachte, droge doek om de conus en de rand af te vegen. Vermijd het gebruik van agressieve chemicaliën of oplosmiddelen.
- Inspectie: Controleer de subwoofer regelmatig op tekenen van schade aan de conus, de surround of de aansluitingen. Zorg ervoor dat alle bevestigingsschroeven goed vastzitten.
- Omgevingsfactoren: Bescherm de subwoofer tegen extreme temperaturen, direct zonlicht en vocht.
Probleemoplossing
If you encounter issues with your DBXi-15D subwoofer, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Probleem | Mogelijke oorzaak | Oplossing |
|---|---|---|
| Geen geluid | Loose wiring connection, amplifier off, incorrect gain setting, blown fuse. | Check all wiring connections, ensure amplifier is powered on, verify gain settings, inspect ampzekering. |
| Vervormd geluid | Amplifier clipping, incorrect gain setting, damaged voice coil, improper enclosure. | Verminderen amplifier gain, check for proper impedance match, inspect subwoofer for physical damage, verify enclosure specifications. |
| Oververhitting van de subwoofer | Ondermaats amplifier, prolonged high volume use, insufficient ventilation. | Ervoor zorgen amplifier provides adequate power, reduce listening volume, ensure proper airflow around the ampversterker en subwoofer. |
If these steps do not resolve the issue, contact Earthquake Sound customer support or a qualified audio technician.
