PREVENTIVE MEASURES:
1.Please read the attached safety instructions as well as the following instructions carefully.
2.Please keep all the instructions.
3.Please use the device only as intended.
4.Please respect the valid waste management rules. Please deliver the packaging divided into plastic and
paper/ cardboard to the recycling management.
5.Please refer all servicing to qualified personel only if the device is damaged, exposed to liquid/rain or if it
does not operate normally.
6.Please, do not expose to any kind of heat such as ovens, radiators, or any other devices (incl. amplifiers).
Please check for enough distance between amplifiers and walls, racks, etc. to prevent overheating.
7.After connection please check the wiring to prevent any kind of accident or damage.
Please never use any kind of damaged cable and wiring.
8.Only use authorized and stable stands, brackets, shelfs, tables etc. for installations. Please check for adequate
stability against collapse.
9. Appearance of interferences when using wireless systems.The simultaneous use of wireless microphones and
of mobile phones (if both devices are not very distant from each other) can lead to the appearance of interferen-
ces in the microphone signal which can be heard in the PA system.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back). No user serviceable parts inside. Refer
servicing to qualified personnel.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product´s enclosure that may be
of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk to persons.
The exclamation mark within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the

is liable to the rules and regulations of the Accident Prevention & Insurance Association of your industry sector.
Adam Hall as a manufacturer is bound to inform you formally about the existence of eventual sanitary risks.
Hearing damage, prolonged exposure to excessive SPL, the loudspeaker is easily capable of generating sound
pressure levels (SPL) sufficient to cause permanent hearing damage to performers, production crew and audi-
ence members. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure SPL in excess of 90 dB.

INTRODUCTION:
The LDESUB15A is an active subwoofer which, thanks to its outstanding characteristics, can be combined with
numerous active or passive full-range cabinets to form small- to medium-sized PA systems.
The amp module features a infinitely tuneable low pass filter (80 Hz to 200 Hz / 18 dB). Active full-range systems
or a corresponding power amp for passive tops can be driven via a fixed frequency 100 Hz high-pass line output.
The two R/L inputs make it possible to produce a mono sum signal in the bass range. These circuitry variants
offer a high level of flexibility for various applications. The active bass feature can be used alone, for example
in smaller rooms. For situations requiring a more powerful system, the LDESUB15A has a speaker output for
connecting another passive bass cabinet (8 ohm only).
These characteristics make the LDESUB15A an indispensible and flexible tool for any artist, musician, DJ or
sound reinforcement specialist.
• SPKn output for a passive subwoofer (only 8 Ohms)
• VOLEX 230V AC out for connecting additional equipment to the mains voltage
• Adjustable low pass lter (80 - 200 Hz)
• 100 Hz high pass stereo line output
• R/L input - mono sum signal in bass range

EINFÜHRUNG:
Der LDESUB15A ist ein aktiver Subwoofer, der dank seiner herausragenden technischen Eigenschaften mit einer
Vielzahl von aktiven oder passiven Fullrange-Boxen zu kleinen bis mittleren PA-Systemen kombiniert werden
kann.
Das Endstufenmodul verfügt über ein stufenlos durchstimmbares Tiefpass-Filter (80 Hz bis 200 Hz / 18 dB).
Über einen fest eingestellten 100-Hz-Hochpass-Line-Ausgang können aktive Fullrange-Systeme oder eine
entsprechende Endstufe für die Versorgung passiver Tops angesteuert werden.
Die beiden Eingänge (R/L) ermöglichen die Erzeugung eines Mono-Summensignals im Bassbereich. Durch diese
Schaltungsvarianten wird eine hohe Flexibilität für verschiedene Anwendungen erreicht. So kann man z.B. in
kleineren Räumen mit nur einem aktiven Bass arbeiten. Zur Erweiterung der Leistungsfähigkeit des Systems
besitzt der LDESUB15A einen zweiten Lautsprecherausgang für den Anschluss eines zusätzlichen, passiven
Subwoofers (nur 8 Ohm).
Diese Eigenschaften machen den LDESUB15A zu einem unentbehrlichen und flexiblen Werkzeug für jeden
Künstler, Musiker, DJ oder Beschaller.
• Speakon-Ausgang für einen passiven Subwoofer (nur 8 Ohm)
• Volex-Netzausgang (230 V) zur Weiterleitung der Netzspannung an andere Geräte
• Regelbares Tiefpass-Filter (80 – 200 Hz)
• 100-Hz-Hochpass Stereo-Line-Ausgang
• L/R-Eingang – Mono-Summensignal im Bassbereich
