OPERATING MANUAL AND USER GUIDE

IMPORTANT WARNINGS & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS – carefully and become familiar with the features and functions of these

products before operating them.

2. RETAIN THESE INSTRUCTIONS – for future reference.

3. COMPLY WITH ALL WARNINGS – All warnings and instructions for this product should be adhered to.

4. USE WITH AMPLIFIERS – In order to avoid damage to drivers and other equipment, it is advisable to

establish and follow a routine for powering up and powering down a sound system. With all system

components connected, turn on source equipment (mixers, signal processors, record and playback

units, etc.) BEFORE powering up ampliers. Transient voltages from powering up source equipment

can damage speakers if ampliers are already turned on. Make sure that amplier volumes are set to

their minimum settings and power up any system ampliers LAST. It is recommended that all system

components be allowed to stabilize for several seconds before any source signals are introduced

or level setting adjustments are made. Similarly, when shutting systems down, turn all ampliers off

rst, before powering down any other system components.

5. CABLES – Do not use shielded or microphone cables for connection between amplifiers and

speakers. Use only approved speaker cables with proper connectors.

6. CAUTION – These professional loudspeaker systems are capable of generating very high sound

pressure levels. Use care with placement and operation to avoid exposure to excessive volume

levels. Permanent hearing damage can result when operated to extreme levels.

7. SERVICE – There are no user serviceable parts inside this product. Users should not attempt to

service this product. Warranty nullication could result if this is attempted.

OPERATING MANUAL AND USER GUIDE

INTRODUCTION

Wharfedale V Series loudspeakers are the result of many years of experience in the use, design

and manufacturing of professional loudspeaker products. We take great pride in engineering and

building every Wharfedale Pro loudspeaker and wish to thank you for entrusting us with your sound.

From the time Gilbert Briggs built his first loudspeaker in 1932, to the present, Wharfedale

Loudspeakers have maintained the same standard of quality in components, workmanship and

performance. Actually, Wharfedale is one of a few present day manufacturers that design, engineer

and build all of their own transducers.

Please take a few minutes to read this manual completely in order to ensure that you get the most

out of your V Series Loudspeaker system.

V SERIES OVERVIEW:

The V Series are powerful, accurate, high quality loudspeaker systems with low distortion that were

designed to deliver high quality sound for the best value. From the V10 to the V153 plus the high-

powered subs, you have what it takes to assemble the system that your music deserves. Other

models to satisfy your most demanding sound needs include: V12 ,V12M, V15, and the V15B and

V18B Subwoofers.

An important factor in loudspeakers, is the smoothness of the sound coverage. Many speakers

that may sound great directly in front of them and in the horizontal plane have problems in the

vertical plane. The V Series™ speakers exhibit very smooth and well-behaved sound dispersion

characteristics in both the horizontal and vertical planes making positioning and set-up less

troublesome. Everyone on stage or in the audience will hear the same, high-quality sound. Because

of the trapezoidal cabinet design, the V-Series speakers can be positioned on the oor as a stage

monitor or mounted on a speaker stand.

When you need that extra bass punch, you can choose the V15B and the V18B reex subwoofers.

WHAT ABOUT THE V SERIES ?

Wharfedale V Series sound reinforcement speakers are designed for demanding sound

reinforcement applications.

The V Series loudspeakers are high quality, passive speaker systems designed to provide the

best sound in a powerful, feature laden, and easy to use package. They provide transparent

and accurate sound reproduction or reinforcement. The 25.4mm (1.0”) Phenolic high frequency

compression driver projects crystal clear high frequencies. A proprietary 90° x 60° Eliptical Wave

Guide (EWG) delivers the high frequencies in a well dened, even coverage pattern.

The V Series is very exible in application. With its heavy-duty grille, pocket handles, stand socket

and durable carpet nish, the V Series can rise to any sound reinforcement challenge.

FEATURES

OPERATING MANUAL AND USER GUIDE

SETTING UP/ SPEAKER PLACEMENT

The uniform dispersion of the V Series Series makes it easy to position the speakers where you

need them, rather than trying to rearrange the room to accommodate the sound system. And the

trapezoidal shaped cabinet with heavy duty handles makes transporting the speakers that much

easier. An integral stand socket allows you to place the speakers high above the audience for best

sound coverage.

When you don’t think you are getting all the bass you need, the V Series has a couple of great

subwoofers: the V15B and V18B. These are powerful bass reflex subwoofers that give you the

lowest frequencies and the punch you need. They are straight forward, no nonsense, bass reex

subwoofers with exceptional low frequency response.

CONNECTIONS / WIRING

Connecting the V Series to your system is easy. The input panel includes parallel TS 6.35mm (1/4”)

connectors. Run your speaker wires from your amplier, to the speaker; you can use either input

connector. Be sure to use high quality, low gauge (thick) speaker wire and NOT shielded cable —

for

all speaker connections.

1/4” Jack Plug

The V15B and V18B Subwoofers have Hi-pass output jacks so you can use just one channel of

an amplier for your full range system including a subwoofer. Run your speaker wires to the input

of the sub and another speaker wire from the subwoofer hi-pass output jack to the input of the full

range speaker on a stand or sitting atop the sub. Placement depends on your sound coverage

requirements.

V SERIES FULL RANGE AND SUBWOOFER CONNECTION

PANEL

The V-10, V-12, V-12M,V-15 and V-153 feature two 1/4” phone jack socket connectors and are

paralleled. This means that these cabinets can be linked together with other cabinets of the same

impedance and design or with a subwoofer speaker. (See drawing)

V-15B/18B

The V-15B, V-18B have three 1/4” phone jack.Two 1/4” phone jack are paralleled at the rear of

each cabinet. The other 1/4” phone jack allows connection to MID/HI output .

In the (standard) passive mode, the power amplier can be connected to the V-15B or 18B system

through the system’s internal low pass filters. The V Full Range Speaker is connected from the

input/output connector panel and receives a full range signal via the sub cabinet. (See drawing)

dual channel amplier.

MONO MAIN SYSTEM WITH TWO MONITORS

NOTE: This conguration represents a 4 ohm load to each output channel of the amplier.

V15B and V18B System Set-ups

V15B and V18B Stereo Sub with Passive Satellites

This is example shows a system with a single power ampliyer connecting the subs and satellites in stereo.

The mixer’s left and right outputs are connected to the inputs of the power amplier using shielded cable. The

outputs of the amplier are connected to the V15B or V18B INPUT using un-shielded speaker cable. Next, run

an un-shielded speaker cable from the V15B’s or V18B’s EXTENSION OUTPUT to the two satellite speakers.

For details on wiring your speaker cables.

IMPORTANT NOTE: To avoid any possible damage to your amp and speakers, be sure to check the

manufacturer’s owners manual to conrm your power ampliyer is capable of operating at 2 ohms.

Impedance Considerations

When connecting speakers in parallel be sure to check the rated load impedance of the power amplier. Most

power ampliers are capable of safely driving speakerswith minimum impedance of 8 ohms or 4 ohms. A pair

of parallel-connected 8-ohm speakers have a to talimpedance of 4 ohms. Two 8-ohm speakers can safely be

paralleled on one output. 4-ohm speakers, however,should not be parallel-connected with other speakers.These

models can be connected in parallel, however, if you are using a power amplifier that can safely drive load

impedances of 2 ohms or lower. Check your speaker impedance .
