Samson Rs15s Musical Instrument User Manual


 
Before you start plugging in cables, you should take a minute to decide how you want to interface your new sub-
woofer. There are several ways you can interface the RS15S and RS18S, however most systems set-ups fall into
two categories, Stereo or Mono (Common) sub operation.
Stereo Sub Operation
In larger rooms, as well as
in theatres and theme park
installations (for low frequen-
cy special audio effects), two
RS15S and RS18S’s can be
used in stereo.
Common Sub Operation
In most cases a common sub,
with mono system operation is
desired. This is true for several
reasons, but mostly because
low frequencies produced
by a subwoofer tend to be
non-directional. Since low fre-
quency waves take so much
space to actually develop,
you can’t tell if the sub bass
is coming from the left or right
side, unless of course you’re
in a very large room. Because
of this phenomena, just about
all sub bass material is mixed
in mono.
