The right (master) speaker has a subwoofer output (Fig. 3(19)) at the rear for controlling an active subwoofer. Use a mono
audio cable and the LINE-IN input of the active subwoofer. The subwoofer output has a low-pass filter with a cut-off
frequency of 150Hz. This speaker is ideally suited for operation with an active subwoofer with a variable low-pass filter.

To charge a smartphone/tablet/e-reader or other rechargeable device that is equipped with a USB input, simply connect
it to the USB charging port (Fig. 4, (14)) by using a suitable USB cable.
plEAsE nOTE: This is a pure charging port without any audio functionality. Improper use (e.g. attempting to play music
via a USB stick or portable hard drive) may damage or destroy the device!
OpERATiOn
As soon as both speakers have been supplied with power and both power switches (Fig. 4, (10) and Fig. 5(22)) have been
turned on, the power LEDs of both speakers light up red (Fig. 2 (1) and (5)). The speakers are now in Standby mode. The
inputs on the right speaker and via Bluetooth mean a total of 5 different audio sources can be connected to the speaker
set simultaneously. The remote control (Fig. 6, (28)) can be used to switch on the speakers and buttons (29) to (33) can
be used to select an audio source. The volume can be adjusted by using buttons (35) and (36), while the speaker can
be muted via button (37).
Alternatively, the speaker can also be operated via the control panel at the rear of the right speaker (Fig. 3). Both
speakers are switched on when the VOLUME/SOURCE knob (7) is pressed for the first time; pressing it again cycles
sequentially through the inputs. The volume can be adjusted by turning the knob. The BASS (8) and TREBLE (9) knobs
can be used to adjust the bass and treble level to suit your surroundings and personal taste.
plEAsE nOTE:
All HECO loudspeakers are designed and built for optimum sound reproduction with the tone controls in the central
position – i.e. with "linear" amplifier output. Turning up the bass and treble controls too far delivers more power to the
woofers and/or tweeters, and at high volumes this can actually destroy the speaker units! Always turn the volume down
immediately as soon as you hear distortion!

sET-up infORmATiOn

The Ascada 600 Tower should if possible be set up without obstruction and slightly inclined towards the place of listening
(fig. 1). In the ideal configuration the speakers and the listening position should form an equilateral triangle. When the left
and right speakers are the same distance from the listening position their sound arrives at the same time, resulting in a
harmonious, natural music reproduction.
There should be a clear line of sight between the loudspeakers and the listening position. Any sound-absorbing or
reflecting obstacles in the path will distort the sound.
cAuTiOn
Interfering with the speaker or accessories shall result in the expiration of the operating licence. The supplied accessories
are to be used for operation. Additional accessories must be intended for the purpose at hand and in perfect working
order.
