How to install Electro-Voice ELX200-12SP Subwoofer System

• Plan your placement: Position the ELX200-12SP on the floor or elevated slightly off the ground to maximize bass coupling with the room. Avoid obstructing vents or airflow to maintain optimal performance.
• Connect your signal: Connect the subwoofer to the audio system through the appropriate input from your mixer, playback device, or crossover. Use balanced connections where possible to minimize noise and hum across longer cable runs.
• Power up and verify: Plug the subwoofer into a reliable power source and power it on. If your system uses QuickSmartDSP, ensure the DSP is engaged and ready to receive control data from the EV QuickSmart Mobile app or your mixer’s routing.
• Configure with QuickSmart Mobile: Install and open the EV QuickSmart Mobile app on your compatible device. Pair with the ELX200-12SP and, if applicable, related ELX200 units. Create or load a setup that includes your subwoofer in the same group as your ELX200 loudspeakers, then adjust crossover points, level, and phase to achieve a seamless low-end integration with your mains.
• Fine‑tune for the venue: Use the DSP, crossover, and level controls to tailor the sub’s response to the room’s acoustics. Perform a quick spectral and SPL check, listen for phase alignment with the main speakers, and adjust if necessary to minimize any phase cancellation or resonance issues. Save the settings for quick recall at future gigs.
• Test and monitor: Run a short test program with program material similar to your live set. Monitor for any unexpected clipping or overheating indicators via the QuickSmart Mobile app and make incremental adjustments to preserve headroom and clarity during performance.
