10 External Sub Out
This DDO-controlled output serves to connect an
additional ALPHA XTension Subwoofer.

Handling: Engage to turn the active system on and
off. Note that once you have engaged the Power
switch, it will take several seconds for the display to
light up and the system to be ready for operation.
This is standard procedure and does not indicate
a malfunction. Always switch the active L.U.C.A.S
ALPHA system on last after you switch on all
connected devices, and switch it off first before you
switch off all connected devices.
12 Speakers Out/ To Satellite Left and Right
Connecting cords: Connect these Speakon outputs
to the left and right L.U.C.A.S ALPHA satellites using
cords equipped with Speakon connectors. Note: Be
sure to rotate the Speakon connectors clockwise
until they lock in place!

13 Mains Input
Connecting cords: Use the factory-included
PowerCon mains cord to connect this socket to a
wall receptacle.
Caution! Make sure the local mains voltage matches
the voltage specified on the device. Connecting the
system to the wrong mains voltage may destroy the
L.U.C.A.S ALPHA system's electronic components.
14 Fans
These ventilation fans and vents on the side of the
housing keep the power amp modules cool. Always
keep the fan and vents free of dirt and debris,
ensuring they remain unobstructed so air can
circulate freely.

clockwise until they lock in place! You must first
disengage the safety catch before you can unplug the
connector. To do this, pull the bayonet catch towards
the cord.
Question: Can I connect speakers other than
L.U.C.A.S ALPHA satellites to the L.U.C.A.S ALPHA
subwoofer?
Answer: The system's components are acoustically
matched for optimum audio performance and may
be operated in the indicated configuration only.
Using other satellites can degrade the sound and
damage the power amp. The outputs' nominal impe-
dance is 8 ohms, and impedance may not fall short
of this value. Be sure to connect no more than one
satellite enclosure to a speaker output.
You can connect an alpha XTension Subwoofer to the
DDO-controlled External Sub Out port.
