ABOUT THE Kinetic Active SERIES

Wharfedale Kinetic Active series sound reinforcement speakers are designed for demanding sound
reinforcement applications.

The Kinetic Active series loudspeakers are high quality, active speaker systems designed to
provide the best sound in a powerful, feature laden, easy to use package. They provide transparent
and accurate sound reproduction or reinforcement. The 30.5mm exit phenolic high frequency
compression driver projects crystal clear high frequencies. A proprietary 90°x60°Elliptical Wave
Guide(EWG) delivers the high frequencies in a well defined, even coverage pattern. Dynamic
passages, such as the crack of a snare drum or the report of a cannon, come through just like the
real thing.

The Kinetic Active Series is very flexible in application. With its heavy duty components, handles
and stand mount socket and durable carpet finish, the Kinetic Active can rise to any sound
reinforcement challenge.

INTRODUCTION
Wharfedale Kinetic Active Series loudspeakers are the result of many years of experience in
the use, design and manufacturing of professional loudspeaker products. We take great pride in
engineering and building every Wharfedale Pro loudspeaker and wish to thank you for entrusting us
with your sound.

From the time Gilbert Briggs built his first loudspeaker in 1932, to the present, Wharfedale
Loudspeakers have maintained the same standard of quality in components, workmanship and
performance. Actually, Wharfedale is one of a few present day manufacturers that design, engineer
and build all of their own transducers.

Please take a few minutes to read this manual completely in order to ensure that you get the most
out of your Kinetic Active Series Loudspeaker.

Kinetic Active SERIES OVERVIEW

The Kinetic Active Series are powerful, accurate, high quality loudspeaker systems with low
distortion that were designed to deliver high quality sound for the best value. From the Kinetic 12MA
to the Kinetic 15A plus the Kinetic 18BA high powered sub, you have what it takes to assemble the
system that your music deserves.

An important factor in loudspeakers is the smoothness of the sound coverage. Many speakers
that may sound acceptable in the horizontal plane have problems in the vertical plane. The Kinetic
Active speakers exhibit very smooth and well-behaved sound dispersion characteristics in both the
horizontal and vertical planes making positioning and set-up less critical. Everyone in the room will
hear the same quality sound.

 OPERATING MANUAL AND USER GUIDE

SETTING UP
1. Be sure that the POWER switches on the Kinetic Active speakers are in the OFF position
2. Set the level controls to minimum(Fully anticlockwise).
3. Set the EQ HF and LF controls to 0dB position.
4. Set MIC/LINE switch to the LINE position(disengaged).
5. Connect all signal cables.
6. Plug the power cable into a properly grounded 3-wire AC power.
7. Switch on source equipment, ensuring that the master level is at minimum.
8. Switch on the Kinetic Active Loudspeaker.
9. Raise the level control on the Kinetic Active .
10. If the limit LED illuminates lower the level control, if more level is required you will need more
speakers. Occasional flashes are acceptable.
11. When powering down your system ensure that the level control has been lowered to minimum
before switching off the power.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT
The uniform dispersion of the Kinetic Active Series makes it easy to position the speakers where
you need them, rather than trying to rearrange the room to accommodate the sound system. And
the trapezoidal shaped cabinet with heavy duty handles makes transporting the speakers that
much easier. An integral Aluminium stand socket(Kinetic 18BA) allows you to place the speakers
high above the audience for best sound coverage..

When you don’t think you are getting all the bass you need, the Kinetic Active Series has a
great sub: the Kinetic 18BA. This is a powerful bass reflex subwoofer that gives you the lowest
frequencies and the punch you need. The Kinetic 18BA is a straight forward, no nonsense 18-inch
bass reflex subwoofer with exceptional low frequency response.

CONNECTIONS AND WIRING

Connecting the Kinetic Active Series to your system is easy. The input panel includes parallel
TRS 6.35mm(1/4”) and XLR connectors. Run your signal wires from your mixer or other line level
components, to the speaker; you can use either input connector. Be sure to run the audio cables
separately from the power cables.

In addition to microphones, your Kinetic Active system will accommodate many sources. Some of
these sources may require special adapters or adapter cables. See the “Connectors” section for
more information.

CONNECTING A PASSIVE MONITOR TO THE Kinetic 12MA

When additional coverage or power is needed an extra passive monitor(For example the Kinetic
12M) can be powered in parallel from the internal amplifier of the Kinetic 12MA.

A standard speaker cable is used to connect the Kinetic 12MA output to the input of the additional
monitor.

The Loop/Mix Switch
The LOOP/MIX switch allows you to control the signal content going to the XLR OUTPUT jack.
In the”LOOP” mode, this switch routes the signal of INPUT B to the line level XLR OUTPUT jack,
bypassing the EQ section and volume control. When in the MIX mode, this switch routes the
combined(or “mixed”)signals of both INPUT A and INPUT B to the line level XLR OUTPUT jack.
This signal can then be sent to additional powered speakers or powered subwoofers.
