Answer


The six (6) Contours are application-specific settings that voice the loudspeaker depending on how you intend to use it.

  • Default – The standard, factory voicing of the loudspeaker for use with live music, program music, or instruments.
  • Default Ext Sub – The standard, factory voicing of the loudspeaker with an 80 Hz high-pass filter for use with live music, program music, or instruments, and an external subwoofer (like the KS112).
  • Dance – A voicing with low frequency enhancement and mid/ high clarity more suitable for program material playback like pop or electronic music.
  • Dance Ext Sub - A voicing with low frequency enhancement and mid/high clarity more suitable for program material playback like pop or electronic music, with an 80 Hz high-pass filter for use with an external subwoofer (like the KS112).
  • Floor Monitor – A voicing for a full, balanced sound when used as a wedge monitor, giving added stability when live microphones are nearby.
  • Speech – A voicing (Channel B only) that gives clarity and stability when used with either a hand-held dynamic microphone or headset microphone.
