    CKT-S-TF1530e System

    The CKT-S-TF1530e system is a high performance passive sub-woofer. This system


    comprises the TF1530e 15”(380mm) bass driver in a 124L ported enclosure.
    TF1530e features a 3” edge-wound voice coil, vented magnet system, Kevlar loaded
    cone, good excursion capability and 400W(AES) power handling. The result is a
    compact sub-woofer with 35Hz bass extension (-10dB), 130.5dB peak maximum
    output and a sensitivity of 97dB when floor-mounted and used with an 80Hz low pass
    filter. This sub-woofer is an ideal match for typical 8”, 10” and 12” based two-way
    satellites.

    Construction Notes:
    All joints should be glued and screwed. The front and back panels can be fitted onto
    internally mounted battens.
    T-Nuts and fixing bolts are recommended as a means of fixing the units.
    Ensure that there are no air leaks in the cabinet apart from the ports – foam gasket
    strip should be used in the mounting of drivers, stand attachment (top-hat) and
    terminal panel.
    Internal cables should be carefully positioned to avoid any rattling.
    Internal acoustic damping is not essential for a sub-woofer but, if used, it should be
    positioned clear of the ports and driver cone.
    It is important that the cabinet is solidly built and free of obvious panel resonances
    which may colour the sound. For this design 18mm MDF can be used instead of
    18mm Birch plywood.
    A cable conductor cross-sectional area of 2.5 square mm is recommended.
    The positive connection on the input panel should be connected to the positive
    terminal of the driver.

    Operation with satellite speakers

    Successful integration of a sub-woofer with a satellite normally requires a little bit of


    adjustment and tweaking, however, the following procedure is a good starting point:

    (1) Set the –3dB point of the High Pass Filter to the -3dB point of the satellite’s low
    frequency roll-off.
    (2) Set the –6dB point of the Low Pass Filter to the same frequency.
    (3) Adjust the sub-woofer level for the best low-mid balance.
    (4) If it sounds like there’s a ‘notch’ at the crossover frequency then reverse the
    polarity of the sub-woofer or satellite to determine the setting which gives the best
    integration.
    (5) To protect the sub-woofer, and maximize its output capability, add a suitable high
    pass filter to the sub-woofer channel.
