Introduction
Thank you for choosing a high-quality product “MADEIN GERMANY” from TW AUDiO.
So far the Big-Subwoofer-eXtender is the biggest TW AUDiO sub to date.
Equipped with two powerful 21“ drivers with a peak performance potential of 10kW per dri-
ver, this speaker is able to reproduce a truly massive bass foundation.
Thanks to the hybrid enclosure principle its efficiency is maximised so that the energy is still
perceptible even at a great distance. Primarily the BSX functions as a true sub bass exten-
sion.
Because of its extremely stiff yet lightweight membranes the BSX is able to deliver frequen-
cies of up to 120 Hz clean and true to its impulses. As a full range sub the BSX is directly
combinable with the M, T, C or VERA systems.

cedures and hand over this assembly guide. If you require additional copies of this manual,

1. Safety | Intended use
Please adhere to the following safety instructions to avoid risks when operating loudspeakers.
The BSX loudspeaker was developed for use in professional sound systems. The loudspea-
ker may only be used by trained and qualified personnel.
Note the operating modes described in this operating manual. Other uses are not permis-
sible.
Damage caused by improper use is not covered by TW AUDiO.
Loudspeakers generate an electromagnetic field. Persons with pacemakers are not permit-
ted to remain in the immediate vicinity of loudspeakers as the electromagnetic fields can
cause pacemakers to malfunction.
When working with heavy loads exceeding 20kg (44,09 lbs.), use suitable aids (dollies, hois-
ting slings, etc.). Multiple persons may be required depending on the situation.
Ensure that the units are in a stable position and are firmly attached. A falling loudspeaker can
result in serious personal injury and property damage.
When using and assembling TW AUDiO loudspeakers, only use materials specified by
TW AUDiO. These tasks must be performed by qualified personnel. Adhere to the applicable
safety regulations.
WARNING
When setting up loudspeakers, ensure that they are not exposed to the following ambient
conditions:
• direct sunlight
• Humidity
• Jolting
• Dust
Keep away from the immediate vicinity of loudspeakers that are operated at high sound pres-
sure levels. These loudspeaker systems are capable of endangering your health. Sound levels
beginning as low as approximately 90dBSPL can lead to long-term hearing impairment.
WARNING
Avoid:
• Feedback
• Distorted signals (clipping) and
• Peaks resulting from switching on devices, plugging in devices or unplugging devices during
operation.
Such signals can lead to loudspeaker overload and ultimately to loudspeaker failure.
WARNING
NOTE
NOTE

Ensure that the loudspeaker is not exposed to permanent thermal overloads. Thermal over-
loads may cause a fire and result in serious personal injury and property damage.
WARNING
Note that TW AUDiO does not provide a warranty for damage that can be attributed to this
type of overload and therefore cannot be held liable for any secondary damage.
A permanent magnetic field is present in the immediate vicinity of loudspeakers. Ensure that
objects which react sensitively to magnetic fields are not located in the immediate vicinity of
the loudspeaker. In particular, this applies to magnetic storage media, magnetic stripe cards
such as debit cards and CRT displays. A distance of approximately one meter is sufficient to
avoid damage.
Check loudspeakers and accessory parts regularly for visible wear. This is essential to ensure
continuing fault-free operation. Worn parts should be replaced immediately. Spare parts are
available from TWAUDiO.

2.2 Operation modes
The BSX loudspeaker can be operated in two operation modes. The operation mode is selec-
ted by choosing the preset in the system amplifier.
2.2.1 Full
In full mode, the BSX has a higher upper cutoff frequency. This mode is recommended for
operating the BSX with tops only.
2.2.2 Infra
Infra operating mode is recommended when using the BSX loudspeaker in a system with addi-
tional subwoofers. In this mode, the lower cutoff frequency results in a bass range extension.
