The power connection is a standard IEC connector with a built-in fuse holder. The power
supply cord must be plugged into the connector before the power supply cord is plugged into
the wall socket.
The fuse is contained inside the IEC connector. The small tab inside the connector must be
depressed allowing the fuse holder to be slid out. The power supply cord cannot be used
when the fuse holder is extended or removed.
Important
The Final Sound S110 subwoofer, is specially designed to match the requirements of
the Final electrostatic loudspeakers. The crossover frequencies to several models
Final electrostatic panels are programmed inside the subwoofer just as the time and
phase behavior. So, contrary to common subwoofer's technology, the Final
subwoofer is equipped with additional high pass filters for driving the electrostatic
panels. Aside of this added feature, it's also possible to use these subwoofers in any
other non Final stereo or home theatre system.
Using these subwoofers together with the Final electrostatic panels of your choice,
needs a different approach when connecting your system. So please, follow these
instructions thoroughly.
Always switch off your system before connecting any wires!
