Unpacking

All Wharfedale Pro products are fully

checked before leaving the factory. After

unpacking please inspect cabinets for any

physical damage. Please retain the shipping

carton if possible and internal packing material in case the unit

needs to be returned. Please check as soon as possible the unit is

functioning. In the event of any damage please contact your dealer

immediately so that a written claim for damages can be made.

Wharfedale Pro Limited Warranty*

SVP 10, SVP-12,SVP-15,SVP215

Operating:

The Wharfedale Pro SVP-10, SVP-12, SVP15 and SVP-215 fea-

ture two 1/4”phone jack socket connectors and are paralleled.

This means that these cabinets can be linked together with

other cabinets of the same impedance and design or with a

sub-bass unit.

CAUTION: If you are unsure of any of thes procedures, check

with your dealer or an experienced sound engineer.

(1) Ensure you do not overload the amplifier you are using by

linking too many units together and lowering the resistance

(impedance) below the safe operating level of the amplifier.

Note: Each speaker connected in parallel increases the load on

the amplifier and can add up to a total load that may exceed the

amplifier’s capabilities, leading to possible damage.Two 8Ω loud-

speakers in parallel make a 4Ω total load. Four 8Ω parallel con-

nected loudspeakers make a total load of 2Ω, which is too low for

many amplifiers.

(2) Make sure that the speaker cable used is securely

attached to the amplifier and the cabinet.

(3) Check all cables from the source unit (mixer or other

source) to the amplifier. Check all power cables to all the

electronic systems powering the loudspeakers and ensure

that they meet with required safety standards.

 WARNING & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Wharfedale Pro SVP Series of Professional Sound Reinforcement Loudspeakers

1. READ INSTRUCTIONS carefully before operating this product.

RETAIN these instructions.

3. COMPLY WITH WARNINGS - All warnings and instructions for this

product should be adhered to.

4. USE WITH AMPLIFIERS - In order to avoid damage, it is advis-

able to establish and follow a pattern for turning on and off any sound

system. With all system parts connected, turn on source equipment,

tape decks, instruments, mixers, signal processors etc., BEFORE

turning on your power amplifier. Many products output turn on and

turn off transients that can damage speakers. By turning on your

power amplifier LAST and making sure the amplifier’s input controls

are at minimum any transients “upstream” of the amplifier are not

amplified and passed to the speaker. Wait until all system parts have

stabilised, then bring up amplifier controls to operating level. This

should take no more than a few seconds. Similarly when shutting

systems down, always turn down amplifier input controls and then

turn off your amplifier BEFORE shutting down other components.

Professional amplifiers often feature delayed turn on/off circuits to

perform these functions for you automatically.

5. CABLES - Never use shielded or microphone cable for any speak-

er connection as this will not be heavy enough to handle the amplifier

load and could cause damage to the complete system.

6.   RIGGING • SUSPENDING • MOUNTING

The rigging, suspension or mounting of this speaker system can

expose members of the public to serious health risks and even death.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ATTEMPT TO RIG, SUSPEND OR

OTHERWISE MOUNT THIS SYSTEM UNLESS YOU ARE FULLY

QUALIFIED AND CERTIFIED TO DO SO BY RELEVANT LOCAL,

STATE AND NATIONAL AUTHORITIES. ALL RELEVANT SAFETY

REGULATIONS MUST BE FOLLOWED. IF YOU ARE NOT PROP-

ERLY QUALIFIED OR DO NOT KNOW OF PERTINENT REGULA-

TIONS, CONSULT QUALIFIED PERSONNEL FOR ADVICE AND

ASSISTANCE.

7.  CAUTION: These professional loudspeaker systems are capa-

ble of generating very high sound pressure levels. Use care

with

placement and operation to avoid exposure to excessive levels

that can cause permanent hearing damage.

8. SERVICING - The user should not attempt to service this prod-

uct.

SVP SERIES PROFESSIONAL SPEAKER USER MANUAL

SVP-10 • SVP-12 • SVP-12M • SVP-15 • SVP-215 •

SVP-15B • SVP-18B

SVP-15B AND SVP- 18B SUB-WOOFER:

Application

For extended bass response in a multi way (2 or more) equalized

system designed for high quality reproduction of voice, music and

musical instruments, for mobile or fixed installations.

Description

These cabinets are all covered in tough impact resist carpet. They

are designed for portability and are fitted with heavy duty handles

and a ‘kick -proof’ steel protective grille. The SVP-18B and the SVP-

15B have two 1/4” phone type jack sockets and are paralleled at the

rear of each cabinet. (See diagram ).

A very special feature of these products is that they have built-in

crossovers with high-pass outputs. This means that you may use

one channel of your power amplifier to power both a subwoofer and

a full-range speaker, while maintaining a reason-able load on your

amplifier. The amplifier only sees the subwoofer/crossover load

which is 8 ohms for SVP series subwoofers. Without the built-in

crossover, the combined impedance of full-range and subwoofer

speakers in parallel would be much lower. Also, the high-pass

crossover output removes the very low bass frequencies from the

signal going to the full-range speaker. This prevents distortion (and

possible damage) from excessive low-frequency energy getting into

the full-range speaker.
