Description
The Gravo subwoofer series is a range of powerful stand-alone active subwoofers, designed to work
in a 2.1 configuration with two active satellite speakers or an external stereo amplifier and passive
speakers. Using rugged and acoustically superior birch plywood as the cabinet material and a high-
headroom class D amplifier, these subwoofers are both robust in their handling and powerful in their
performance. Adding precision transducers, they offer great sound as an extension in the subbass
frequency range to any portable and installed sound system.
The Gravo series consists of three different models:
SWA-1210: 12” Driver
SWA-1510: 15” Driver
SWA-1810: 18” Driver
Availability of models may very based on territory. The specifications for each model are available at
the end of this user manual.
Setting up
A. Location
When choosing a location for the Gravo subwoofers, keep the following in mind:
During transport or setup, avoid touching the cones of the loudspeakers with any object or with
your hands, as this could cause irreparable damage. Do not remove the protection grille.
Avoid pointing microphones in the direction of the speakers, as this could result in annoying feed-
back which can damage the speaker drivers.
B. Position
Gravo subwoofers are designed for floor standing operation. Make sure that the floor is flat and even
to avoid the speaker to tumble. Avoid resonating floor positions for better sound.
C. Satellite Speaker Placement
The Gravo subwoofers are equipped with a
1-3/8 inch (35mm) stand pole mount, to allow
mounting of a satellite speaker right on top of
the subwoofer by means of a 35mm distance
tube.
Before lifting the speaker onto the tube, be confi-
dent that you can handle the weight safely and
without injury to yourself, others, or damage to
the speaker.
When taking the satellite speaker off the tube,
take caution if the tube gets caught in the sateli-
ite speaker’s stand mount, as it may fall off unex-
pectedly and cause risk of injury or damage.

Functional Description
Andante V2 speakers offer a user interface which resembles a basic 4-channel mixer. Apart from the
main mono line input (CH1), a dedicated microphone input (CH2) and two stereo line inputs (CH3/4)
are provided. For the stereo inputs, it can be decided whether they are summed to mono and played
by the internal speaker or whether the left channel is played by the internal speaker and the right chan-
nel is sent to a 2nd speaker. Various filter options complete the feature set.
Voltage selector switch. The product shall be preset to the voltage of your location, but it is
recommended to check this before first operation. Available settings are 230V and 115V.
Power switch. Switches the product on and off.
AC inlet. Connect the supplied AC cord here.
Fuse holder. The fuse can be removed and exchanged by pulling out the holder tray. Switch the
unit off and disconnect the AC supply before doing so. Replace fuses only with same value and
rating. If the fuse blows a 2nd time, submit product for repair.

Power indicator. This LED indicates whether the product is switched on or off.
Audio Input (Left and Right). This is an electronically balanced Combo input for line level signals
which accepts male XLR plugs or TRS plugs.
Audio LINK OUT connectors. These male XLR sockets carry the same signal as the audio input
(6) and may be used to forward the input signal to other recipients. The level at this link output
is not influenced by the MAIN level control (9).
SATELLITE OUT connectors. These male XLR sockets carry the mid and high frequency signal
content after being processed by the internal active crossover. Connect your active satellite
speakers or an amplifier for passive satellite speakers here. The internal active crossover can
be set either to 120Hz or 150Hz via switch (16) or can be disabled via switch (15).
MAIN Level control. Controls both the volume of the internal subwoofer amplifier as well as the
connected satellite speakers on output (8).
PROTECT Indicator. Lights up when the internal amplifier goes into protection, either by over-
heat or other faults. If the PROTECT indicator does not light off after a cool down period,
address a qualified service technician for inspection of the unit.
LIMIT Indicator. Indicates that the internal level limiter becomes active. Make sure that this
indicator only lights up occasionally, or reduce input level or MAIN volume otherwise.
SUB Level control. Sets the subwoofer level in relation to the overvall level which is adjusted
with the MAIN level control (9).
Subwoofer LowPass filter frequency selector. Switches the internal filter between 120Hz and
150Hz. For a smooth overall response, set this witch to the same frequency as the satellite
HighPass filter switch (16).
Subwoofer Phase Reverse switch. Depending on the setup arrangement, reversing the output
phase of the subwoofer might be necessary for better acoustical results.
Satellite HighPass filter enable switch. Switches the Highpass filter for the satellite output on
and off. The frequency of the filter can be selected via switch (16).
Satellite HighPass filter frequency selector. Switches the internal filter between 120Hz and
150Hz. For a smooth overvall response, set thiss witch to the same frequency as the
subwoofer LowPass filter switch (13).
