DESCRIPTION
Congratulations!
With buying a Dynacord PowerSub 315 you have chosen a state-of-the-art active subwoofer that
employs most advanced technology. The active 15” subwoofer PowerSub 315 with four integrated digital
power amps provides total output power of 2000W and has been designed for the quick and easy set-up
of subwoofer satellite systems.
Subwoofer satellite systems normally employ a center woofer system and satellite cabinets on the
left and right sides. DYNACORD’s PowerSub 315 provides an additional output for the connection of
external subwoofers, for it to be equally used in active stereo applications employing up to two additional
external subwoofers.
While using DYNACORD D 12 12” 2-way systems as satellite cabinets is recommended, the PowerSub
315’s switch able integrated active crossover allows matching the PowerSub 315 to smaller or bigger
satellite systems (e.g. DYNACORD LM 8-2 or F150) or to any other suitable speaker system.
The PowerSub 315 offers connection for a total of up to four 8 ohms satellite speakers and up to two
additional passive 8 ohms subwoofers (e.g. DYNACORD SUB 115).
Power amp output capacity is automatically distributed to the connected speaker systems when
switching between operation modes using the ‚MODE‘ switch on the rear of the appliance.
Four castors, two carrying handles and an integrated pole-mount stand  ange facilitate transport and
set-up of center subwoofer and stereo satellite systems.
Unpacking and Warranty
Carefully open the packaging and take out the PowerSub 315. Next to the PowerSub itself, the package
also includes this owner’s manual, a mains cord and the warranty certi cate. Make sure that all
information on the warranty certi cate is correctly  lled in. Only a completed warranty certi cate entitles
you to  le any claims. Keep the original invoice, which states the purchase/delivery date together with
the warranty certi cate at a safe place.
Installation and Connection
Install the PowerSub 315 with its rubber stands on an even ground to ensure stable and secure
operation. For applications with pole-mounts inserted in the PowerSub 315, inspect the stability of the
entire system and use additional ropes to secure the cabinets from falling over.
Do not cover the rear panel during operation. Otherwise, because of thermal overload, the PowerSub
315 may enter reduced power mode, which protects the PowerSub from being damaged while on
the hand full output power is not available. Mains connection is provided via Neutrik’s professional
“PowerCon” connector system and an extra long (5m), highly  exible mains cord offering absolute
safe operation. With bigger system set-ups consisting of several active cabinets, the use of quality
mains distribution hardware throughout the entire installation, being appropriate to handle total power
consumption and providing suf cient fuse protection, is absolutely mandatory.
Before establishing mains connection for the  rst time or after changing locations, make sure to
examine the mains voltage label to ensure that the power speci cations of the local mains match
those of the PowerSub 315.
