Safety

Old electrical and electronic appliances

Electrical or electronic devices that are no longer serviceable must be collected separately and

sent for environmentally compatible recycling (in accordance with the European Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive).

To dispose of old electrical or electronic devices, you should use the return and collection

systems put in place in the country concerned.

Suspension

Warning!

Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be attempted by individuals

who have a thorough knowledge of the techniques and regulations of suspending objects

overhead. Electro-Voice strongly recommends all loudspeakers be suspended taking into

account all current national, federal, state, and local laws and regulations. It is the

responsibility of the installer to ensure all loudspeakers are safely installed in accordance

with all such requirements. When loudspeakers are suspended, Electro-Voice strongly

recommends the system be inspected at least once per year or as laws and regulations

require. If any sign of weakness or damage is detected, remedial action should be taken

immediately. The user is responsible for making sure the wall, ceiling, or structure is capable

of supporting all objects suspended overhead. Any hardware used to suspend a loudspeaker

not associated with Electro-Voice is the responsibility of others.

Redundant safety point

As an added safety measure, it is suggested the user install an extra suspension point back to

the building structural supports. This redundant safety point should have as little slack as

possible (less than 1-inch is preferable).

Introduction

The EVID-S12.1 subwoofer, from Electro-Voice, is a compact, high-performance, dual voice coil

loudspeaker with outstanding performance for the most demanding professional and

commercial sound applications. Designed and engineered for use in background and

foreground music, and sound reinforcement applications, the EVID-S12.1 subwoofer is the

ideal solution for indoor applications, such as restaurants, bars, patios, retail, fitness clubs,

hospitality, theme parks, leisure venues, and others. The EVID-S12.1 subwoofer is the perfect

solution for a wide variety of surface mount applications.

The EVID-S12.1 subwoofer comes with a dual mode mounting bracket that enables the unit to

be easily mounted at either a wall/wall (corner) or on a wall/ceiling (mid-wall) junction. The

included forged steel eyebolt provides the installer a solid attachment point for a safety line.

The EVID-S12.1 subwoofer may also be safely installed protruding just 2-3/4" down through a

standard suspended ceiling grid.

Read through this manual to familiarize yourself with the safety information, features, and

applications before you use these products.

Installation

For safety, ensure the mounting surface supports more than the weight of the speaker. Use

only industry-accepted fasteners and mounting methods when mounting the loudspeaker.

Consult an expert if you are unsure.

Caution!

It is the installer's responsibility to determine and use the proper mounting hardware for

the wall construction type.

Disregarding this caution could result in damage to the product and personal injuries may

occur.

Installing the subwoofer to a wall

To install the subwoofer to a wall, do the following:

1. Attach the bracket to the wall.

If installing in a corner leave 1.5-inches (40 mm) between the bracket and the ceiling. Use a

minimum of four screws.

Stud

2. Wire the speaker, as shown in the wiring section.

3. Remove the two Philip-head screws on the rear of the subwoofer.

4. Mount one mounting clip to the top of the speaker using the eyebolt (supplied).

5. Attach the four rubber feet inside the corners on the side of the enclosure that will be

against the wall.

6. Attach the safety line to the eyebolt in the rear of the subwoofer.

7. Insert one of the 3/8-16-thread Philips-head screws through the remaining mounting

clip.

Keep this hardware at arm's reach.

8. Slide the enclosure sideways to engage the top mounting clip over the bracket rung (1).

9. While holding the subwoofer, insert the 3/8-16-thread Philips-head screws with the

mounting clip into the remaining mounting hole so that it engages the bottom bracket

rung (2, 3).

10. Finger tighten the screw.

11. Straighten the clip.

Release the subwoofer.

12. Securely tighten the bottom Philip-head screw using a #3 right-angle Philips screwdriver.

Installing the subwoofer to a corner

Wiring

The amplifier, the subwoofer, and the speakers are wired for STEREO operation. It is highly

advisable to support the unit while these connections are being made. Connect all wires to

the speaker at the back terminal plate observing proper polarity of the connections. After all

connections are made test the complete system operation.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible Causes Action

No Sound Amplifier Connect a known working test speaker to the amplifier outputs. If

there is no sound, check all electronics are on, the signal routing is

correct, the source is active; the volume is turned up, and so on.

Correct/Repair/Replace as necessary. If there is sound, the problem is

in the wiring.

Wiring Verify you have connected the correct wire pairs to the amplifier. Play

something at low level through the amplifier (for example, from a CD

player or tuner). Connect the test speaker in parallel with the

malfunctioning line. If the sound has gone or is very weak, the line has

a short in it (possibly a severe scrape, pinch, or staple puncture). If

the sound level is normal the wire is open (possibly a cut wire or

missed connection). Using the test speaker, move down the line and

test each connection/junction until you find the problem and correct

it. Observe proper polarity.

Verify you have the inputs and outputs connected to the correct wires.

If the subwoofer input panel is not correctly wired, there will be little

or no sound. Observe proper polarity.

Poor Low-

Frequency

Response

Speakers Wired Out-

of-Polarity

When two speakers are connected out of polarity (out of phase), the

low frequencies will cancel each other acoustically. Carefully observe

the wire markings or tracers on your speaker wires. Verify the

amplifier (+) terminal is connected to the red speaker terminals and

the amplifier (-) terminal is connected to the black speaker terminals.

Improperly Wired

Subwoofer Panel

Using a test speaker as described above, verify all amplifier and

speaker wires are connected to their proper terminals with the correct

polarity. Reversing just one set of amplifier wires can cut out all bass

output from the subwoofer.

Intermittent

Output such as,

Crackling or

Distortion

Faulty Connection Check all connections at amplifier and speakers to ensure they are

clean and tight. If the problem persists, it may be in the amplifier or

wiring. See other actions above.

Constant Noise

such as Buzzing,

Hissing, Humming

Defective Amplifier

or other Electronic

Device

If the noise is present but no program material is playing, the likely

cause is the signal chain in the electronics. Evaluate each component

as necessary to isolate the problem.

Poor System

Grounding or

Ground Loop

Check and correct the system grounding, as required.

If these suggestions do not solve your problem, contact your nearest Electro-Voice dealer or

Electro-Voice distributor.
