POSITIONING
Speakers positioning
Our speakers have been designed to function in a vertical position.
The majority of our models are delivered with a set of decoupling
spikes or cones, these accessories are to be screwed in the inserts
under the cabinets. These accessories ensure the stability of the
speaker while limiting resonance coming from certain types of
grounds like wood floors.
Powerful drivers generate magnetic fields that can extend beyond
the boundaries of the speaker cabinet. We recommend you keep
magnetically sensitive articles (TV, computer screen, computer
discs, audio and video tapes, swipe cards...) at least 1.5 ft (50 cm)
away from the speaker. Cabasse centre speakers or the ones mar-
ked «TV» are not concerned with this, being magnetically shielded.
Positioning speakers in a room
Optimal positioning for a 2.1
or stereo with a subwoofer system
or a stereo listening with 2 speakers or 2 satellites and 1 sub-
woofer, we recommend you to place the subwoofer in the front lis-
tening area. The placement of the subwoofer against a wall reinforces
the low frequencies and limit the reflections from 80 to 200 Hz.
However to obtain the best results, it is always necessary to carry out
tests according to the acoustic of the room.
Optimal positioning for a 5.1
or home theatre system
Setting up a multi-channel Audio-Video system requires great care
when positioning the specific AV speakers.
■The centre speaker should be placed as close as possible to the
screen and where it sounds best from your listening spot while offe-
ring the optimal picture/dialogue cohesion. Theoretically, the screen
should be located within a virtual triangle formed by the acoustical
centres of the main speakers and the centre speaker. Practically
speaking, this means that the principal speaker should be placed abo-
ve the screen if the main speakers are below it, and below the screen
if the main speakers are above. The centre speaker should also, if pos-
sible, be set slightly back from the others, so that it is located at the
same distance from the listener as the main speakers.
■The rear speakers or surround should be placed against the side
walls, at listening height. They should not be positioned far behind
the listening zone.
■The subwoofer should be placed in the front listening area, its posi-
tion against a wall reinforces the extreme low register and limits
the reflections between 80 and 200 Hz. However to obtain the best
result, it is always necessary to carry out tests according to the
acoustics of the room.
Your AV processor enables the adjustment in level and delay of
each of the 5/6/7 channels of your system. ine-tuning is necessa-
ry to obtain a perfect sound stage.
Turn off all the amplifiers before connecting them to the loud-
speakers. In order to connect loudspeakers properly, it is most
important to keep in mind the following two factors: cable section
and phase.
CONNECTION
Cable section
To get the full sonic poten-
tial of Cabasse loudspea-
kers and avoid power
losses, the cables connec-
ting the speakers to the
power amplifier must have
the lowest possible electri-
cal resistance. To help you
in choosing the correct cable gauge, follow diagram.
Phase
In order to maintain the phase relationship and frequency balance of the
loudspeaker system, both loudspeakers must be properly connected to
the power amplifier. When properly connected, the cones of the drivers
of both loudspeakers will move in the same direction when driven by the
same signals. If the cones move in opposite directions, the resulting out
of phase signals will create a perceptible power loss, particularly in the
low frequencies. The stereophonic message will also be degraded. Ampli-
fier and speaker manufacturers typically indicate connection polarity
in one of two ways: red and black or plus and minus. In either case, always
connect red or plus to red or plus and black or minus to black or minus.
Connections should be identical for both channels. To check that the
speakers are in correct phase, switch the system to mono while music
is being played. if the amplifier does not have a phase inversion switch,
it will be necessary to change over the connections on one only of the loud-
speakers. If in correct phase, the image should be distinctly located bet-
ween the loudspeakers with a slight loss of bass and low midrange level.
If the image is confused and not centrally located and there is a drastic
loss of bass and low midrange level, recheck your connections.
Power management
Select the right voltage with the 115 V –
230 V switch and connect the
plug to the mains with a 700 W or more
power chord cable (3 A / 230 V, 6 A /
115 V). Then power on the amplifier
with the switch. inally press the
POWER key of the remote control or
any key on the front pad to get the sys-
tem on play mode. The display will be
activated after 3 to 4 seconds.

dB, pressing the “+” and “-“ keys in 1 dB increments.
- LOW PASS ILTER: adjustment of the subwoofer’s low-pass frequen-
cy, 30 Hz to 200 Hz, pressing the “+” and “-“ keys in 1 dB increments.
- PHASE: setting of phase of the subwoofer output signal, 0 to 180
degrees, pressing the “+” and “-“ keys in 1 dB increments.
- AUTO ACQUISITION: automatic setting of the subwoofer parametric
filters. It requires the use of the microphone and the microphone pream-
plifier delivered with the Santorin 30.
- PARAMETRIC 1 – PARAMETRIC 2 – PARAMETRIC 3: these 3 para-
metric modules allow the room adaptation of the subwoofer response
in order to decrease the acoustical defaults of the listening room in low
frequencies. They can either be activated manually or with the AUTO
ACQUISITION process.
The manual setting implies the adjustment of the following parameters
listed in the “PARAMETRIC 1 – PARAMETRIC 2 – PARAMETRIC 3 “sec-
tions:
■CENTER: it determines the middle frequency of the correction: it is
adjustable between 30 and 200 Hz in 1 dB increments.
■BAND WIDTH: width of the correction, from 1/8 of an octave up
to 2 (16/8) octaves in 1/8 of an octave increments.
■GAIN: intensity of the correction, adjustable from -12 dB to +4 dB
in 1 dB increments.
- POWER : Power management
■ON: the subwoofer is ready for activation either by pressing down
the “POWER” key on the remote control or by pressing down any key of
the front panel.
■O : the subwoofer is no longer activated. Activation requires to posi-
tion the POWER section on “ON” or “AUTO”
■AUTO: automatic power management with activation of the sub-
woofer when audio signal is received by the subwoofer. This is the set-
ting we advise to be used after the correct setup has been achieved. The
remote control can be stored until new setting becomes necessary.
- DELAY: compensation of the time delay when the subwoofer is placed
between the listening spot and the main speakers. It is adjustable bet-
ween 0 and 6.8 meters in 0.34 meter increments.

II) CONNECTIONS AND CONFIGU ATION :
The Santorin 30 has been designed for optimum results in almost eve-
ry audio and video application. These are the instructions for the main
domestic configurations:
2.1 CONFIGURATION : 2 satellites + 1 Santorin connected to a ste-
reo amplifier
Connect the right (R) and left (L) HI LEVEL inputs of the Santo-
rin to the loudspeakers’ output terminals of your amplifier with loud-
speaker cable. Be careful not to invert polarity and/or channels, the red
(+) terminals of the amplifier must be connected to the red (+) terminals
of the amplifier, and right amplifier’s output to the right inputs of the
subwoofer.
Connect the right (R) and left (L) HI LEVEL outputs of the San-
torin to the terminals of both satellite speakers. Respect polarities
and left and right when connecting the speaker cable between the
subwoofer and the satellites.
Connect the Santorin 30 to the mains and power it on.
Set the « SOURCE » and « CHANNELS » parameters as follow:
SOURCE = RCA + HL
CHANNELS = R+L
5.1 CONFIGURATION: 5 loudspeakers + 1 Santorin connected to an
AV-amplifier
Connect either the right(R) or the left (L) LOW LEVEL INPUT (A7) of
the subwoofer to the SUBWOO ER / L E output with an RCA/RCA
cable. If the amplifier or preamplifier is also fitted with a XLR output
for SUBWOO ER/L E we advise to choose it and connect it to one of
the (A6) BALANCED INPUTS of the Santorin 30.
Connect the Santorin 30 to the mains and power it on.
Set the « SOURCE » et « CHANNELS » parameters as follow :
■SOURCE = RCA + HL or XLR if BALANCED INPUT is being used
■CHANNELS = R or L
III) SANTO IN SET-UP P OCEDU E
Once the above connections have been fully done and the subwoofer
connected to the mains and switched on and activated with the
“POWER” of the remote control or any of the front keys, proceed to the
following set-ups using the front panel of the subwoofer.

Attention ! he subwoofer might hum in such a configuration, depen-
ding on the ground specs of the other components. If so, the problem is
cancelled by joining the electrical grounds of the subwoofer and the
preamplifier with a RCA-RCA cable connected to one of the RCA inputs
of the subwoofer and to one available RCA input of the preamplifier.
Cab no ice San orin30B.qxd:Cab no ice Sub-03.qxd 11/05/09 15:26 Page12

e n g l i s h
A) SELECTION O THE SOURCE : check in « SOURCE » that the
inputs and outputs being listed are the ones being used:
■RCA+HL : RCA INPUTS and/or HI-LEVEL INPUTS/OUTPUTS
■XLR : XLR BALANCED INPUTS2)
B) INPUT CHANNEL SELECTION: check in « CHANNELS » the chan-
nel(s) being used :
a. R : Right channel
b. Left channel
c. R+L : both Left and Right channels
C) DELAY SET-UP: if the subwoofer is placed between the main spea-
kers and the listening spot or at a shorter distance to the listening spot
than the main speakers, the adjustment of the DELAY will improve the
sound result by entering in DELAY the difference between two distances.
The distance d1 is the radius of the circle passing by both main speakers
tweeters, the listening spot being its centre, d2 being the distance bet-
ween the sweet spot and the subwoofer ((4) scheme). The result r= d1-
d2 is the value to enter in the DELAY section if positive. If d2 is higher
than d1, then leave DELAY on “0” and go to the PHASE SECTION for
precise setting.
D) SELECTION O THE LOW PASS ILTER REQUENCY
The upper limit of the subwoofer’s frequency depends upon the type of
use of the subwoofer, the main speakers’ characteristics and the setting
possibilities offered by the AV-amplifier involved in the system:
5.1, 6.1, 7.1 set-up for single L E channel reproduction with full range
speakers for the other channels. The L E channel is monitored by the pro-
cessor of the AV amplifier, we therefore advise to set the low-pass filter
of the Santorin 30 on 200 Hz to avoid overlapping of both filters.
Multichannel set-up with satellites speakers requiring back-up of a sub-
woofer for reproduction of the bottom-end frequencies: adjust the low-
pass filter of the Santorin 30 on 200 Hz, then go in the SET-UP menu
of the AV amplifier, set the speakers sizes on SMALL when required
and set the cross-over frequency between subwoofer and satellites spea-
kers as close as possible to the characteristics of each satellite. Regarding
Cabasse speakers, select the frequency in the above table. If not listed
here, this frequency is available on the spec sheets of the products and
on www.cabasse.com
When the SET-UP menu allows only one cross-over frequency and
satellites with different roll-off frequencies are being used, then select the
highest frequency.
Stereo use with a stereo amplifier :
In this configuration the subwoofer and a pair of Cabasse satellites
speakers are connected to a stereo amplifier. Select the low pass frequency
in the above table and enter it into the set-up menu of the subwoofer.
An experienced installer will be able to select after measurements on site
other values than the ones we determined in our anechoic chamber,
taking into account the acoustical specifications of the listening room.
E) VOLUME ADJUSTMENT :when the set-up includes satellites spea-
kers, we recommend to first adjust the volume between the subwoo-
fer and the main speakers in stereo mode with a selection of music
rich in low frequencies. Once this set-up is achieved, adjust the L E level
in the set-up menu of the AV amplifier. urther L E levels adjustments
should be done in the AV amplifier and not in the subwoofer software.
) PHASE ADJUSTMENT: it allows if necessary to flatten the fre-
quency response around the cross-over point. If the subwoofer is clo-
ser to the listening point than the main speakers, then leave the PHA-
SE on the 0° and adjust the DELAY. The right setting is the one giving
the highest perceived level of low frequencies. Try first 0°, then 180°
and 90°. Other values should be used by experienced installers with
the help of measuring equipment. Readjust the phase each time you
move the subwoofer or the main speakers and each time you select a
new cross-over frequency.
G) PARAMETRIC ILTERS:
Thanks to our long experience in digital sound processing, we have
developed for the Santorin 30 unique room corrections modules. When
a graphic filter proposes volume adjustments on fixed bandwidth, our
parametric filters offer more precise and more natural settings, being per-
fectly focused on the critical zones. Sometimes the room acoustics
requires the use of only one parametric filter where a graphic filter will
in any case be active all along the bandwidth of the subwoofer and
create phasing shifts.
G1) AUTOMATIC ROOM EQUALISATION (5) (6)
1) Check that all the above settings are done and recorded.
2) Select « PRESET 2 » for the first adjustment in order to keep « PRE-
SET 1 » as a reference.
3) Unpack the measurements tools delivered with the subwoofer: micro-
phone, microphone-preamplifier, stand, power-supply, 2 cables
4) Place the microphone at the height of the listening point (P1 on dra-
wing (6)), connect it to the microphone-preamplifier “INPUT” with the
supplied XLR-XLR cable.
5) Connect the preamplifier to the Santorin by connecting its out-
put XLR « OUTPUT » to the input XLR « RIGHT » .
6) Set the « GAIN » and « OUTPUT » levels of the microphone’s
preamplifier at 12 o’clock and press down the 48V key. Power the
preamplifier by connecting the power supply to the 9 VAC input and
to a mains plug
7) In the subwoofer set-up :
a. Select « RCA+HL » as « SOURCE » in order to prevent any risk of
Larsen effect (whistling)
b. « CHANNELS »+ « VOLUME »: The software automatically selects
the right XLR input as the microphone input and runs the level control.
c. In «AUTO ACQUISITION », press enter to confirm the measurement
process.

date the recording for the selected PRESET with “OK”. It is then pos-
sible to record other compensations in another PRESET with other
microphone positions.
Before starting listening tests: Select « XLR» as « SOURCE » if neces-
sary and unplug the microphone preamplifier from the subwoofer.
Check and if necessary set the “VOLUME” of the subwoofer, as the EQ-
process might have modified the sound level around the low-pass
frequency.
Unplug and store carefully the measurement equipment for eventual
further use after having completed the set-up of the subwoofer.
G2) MANUAL ROOM EQUALISATION
This way of setting up might bring better results than the Cabasse auto-
calibration system only if skilled people with specific measurement
equipment are involved. It can also be used to slightly modify some
auto-calibration values for audio comparisons of different PRESETS
((RC6) keys) or use of sources with different sound balances.
1) Select PRESET ( 1, 2 or 3)
2)Use the «  » and «  » keys (TP6 et TP3) of the control pad , then
« ENTER »to select one of the parametric modules : PARAMETRIC 1,
PARAMETRIC 2, PARAMETRIC 3.
3)« CENTER »: choose the middle frequency of the bandwidth to be
modified, between 30 and 200 Hz in 1 Hz increments.
4) « BAND »: select the width of the correction, , from 1/8 of an octa-
ve up to 2 (16/8) octaves in 1/8 of an octave increments.
5) GAIN: adjust intensity of the correction, adjustable from -12 dB to
+4 dB in 1 dB increments.
6) Validate the above 3 values : press the ENTER key (P1) on « EXIT ».
7) Proceed the same way for the other parametric modules if they are
to be used.
