SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

 The CLS-215B can easily reproduce sound pressure levels (SPL) sufficient enough to cause severe and
permanent hearing damage. Always protect your ears when you are exposed to SPL in excess of 85dB!
 Be sure that your power amp is turned off before connecting the speakers.
 The woofer is not protected against humid and rain. Therefore this speaker is intended for indoor use only,
use of this product outdoors, in humid conditions, voids all warranties.
 Always mount this speaker in safe and stable way.
CONNECTIONS
® ®
The CLS-215B has two Neutrik Speakon connectors. Speakon
 POSITIVE
= +1 and +2
 NEGATIVE
= -1 and -2
Cables to be used:
You can use readymade cables but of course you can also assemble the speaker cables yourself. Take care
to use good quality speaker cable with at least 2x 2.5mm² conductors. You will also need a pair of Neutrik
®
Speakon NL4FC connectors. This connector has 4contacts: +1 -1 +2 -2. Your speaker cable has 2
conductors with different colors. Be sure to connect the same color on each side of the cable to the
corresponding contact: +1 to +1 and -1 to -1. Since the Speakon
-1 to -2), you can also use 4x 2.5mm² LS-cables to reduce signal losses due to long cables.
Important! Don't mix up the + and – contacts, if you inverse the conductors, poor sound quality with
a lack of low frequencies will be the result.

Input connector plate:
On the connector plate you will find a switch behind a transparent cap. Just unscrew the 2 small bolts
(marked "C" on the picture) so you can remove the cap and change the switch position. You can put the
switch in 2 different modes (also see the electronic diagram of the switch) :
A) Woofersseparated:
Used when you only install 1 subwoofer or when the amplifier is not powerful enough to drive 1
subwoofer per channel.
IMPORTANT: Both inputs must be connected and the amplifier must be set to MONO mode (NOT
Bridge!)
Both woofers inside the cabinet have their own Speakon
connect the left output of an amplifier to the left input of the subwoofer and the other amplifier output to
®
the right Speakon
B) Woofers in parallel:
Used when you have powerful amplifiers that can deliver the high power needed by the
subwoofer.
The power needed at the inputs is 1x1200Wrms @ 4ohm. (1200Wpeak)
Both woofers/Speakon
CLS-215B in parallel.
Attention: when a second subwoofer is connected, the impedance drops from 4Ω to 2Ω! Please note
that most amplifiers do not support heavy working conditions while under 2Ω load. Moreover the
damping factor of your amplifier drops significantly resulting in a weaker bass response.
Preferred setup combination:
When used with the CLS-8 mid/high cabinets you should try to keep a certain balance with this subwoofer to
make a good sounding system. We suggest using 4pcs CLS-8 on 1pc CLS-215B. You should use 2
separate amplifiers plus an active crossover or audio processor crossed at +/-130Hz (24dB/oct). Of course
® you are not limited to this combination, you can experiment with other setups as much as you like!
WHEEL PACK
If used on the road, you can fix an optional set of 4 wheels to the back of the subwoofer. The subwoofer is
standard equipped with inserts so you can attach the wheels easily with the included bolts.
