Use of the speaker
Both the B115 and the B118 subwoofers are perfect for producing low frequencies, also nown as bass. The
B115 produces a sound that accentuates ic s and gives a bass-punch, while the B118 has a larger woofer
and is more capable of reproducing the lowest bass sounds, providing a deep, warm bass. The B-series
subwoofers are equipped with their own amplifier module, which eliminates the need of an external amplifier.
This amplifier module matches perfectly with the characteristics of the other components.
The subwoofers are best used with an external crossover, which filters out the mid/high frequencies. This
way, your subwoofer can focus on reproducing bass frequencies, while your normal (fullrange) spea ers
receive an optimized mid/high signal. As your fullrange spea ers do not need to reproduce low frequencies
anymore, you will notice a slight positive change in sound quality and quantity.
The internal 35mm distance pole adapter ma es it possible to increase the distance between your subwoofer
and spea ers. The subwoofer stays on the ground due to its weight and acoustical benefits, while your
spea ers can be placed on a sufficient height. This way the high and mid frequencies can be spread more
evenly over your audience and the soundwaves will project further.
To ma e sure that you are able to enjoy this subwoofer for a longer period of time, pay attention to clipping
amplifiers and distorted sound reproduction. Spea er overload or distortion from clipping components may
cause permanent damage to the spea er system.
The B115 and B118 subwoofers require an external power amplifier, which provides sufficient power to your
subwoofers. Devine recommends the use of a powerful amplifier with more capacity than needed. This way,
the amplifier does not have to wor at full capacity to provide the subwoofer with sufficient power.
The B115 and B118 subwoofer have dual spea er connectors, which ma es it possible to lin multiple
subwoofers. Keep in mind that the impedance drops when you lin two subwoofers. For example, if two
subwoofers of 8 Ohms each are lin ed together, the impedance drops from 8 to 4 Ohms. Ma e sure your
power amplifier is capable of delivering power on such low impedances and contact your local dealer for
advice if you are not sure how to lin several spea ers with the correct power amplifier.
Warranty is void when damage to this spea er is caused by improper use. When any damage to this spea er
occurs, please contact your local dealer for help.
The connection panel on the rear needs to be connected with a power amplifier. Please pay attention to the
wiring scheme and your cables, as faulty wiring may cause permanent damage. Use cables with an
appropriate diameter. Devine recommends the use of cables with a core diameter of 1.5 mm².
Connector panel:
1. Spea er-loc input
2. Spea er-loc output
3. 6.35mm TS jac plug input
4. 6.35mm TS jac plug output
5. Bare wire terminal / banana plug terminal (+)
6. Bare wire terminal / banana plug terminal (-)
WARNING: Do not use microphone or any other low-
level capacity signal cables, as these do not have the capacity to
handle amplified audio signals! Always use cables with
a core diameter of at least 1.5mm².
