HOOK UP DIAGRAMS
VS18 in-line with audio source
Set VS18 crossover to match the size of speakers you are sending audio to, or
as speaker manufacturer recommendsFeed-through from main speakersFeeding Harbinger Smart Stereo speakers such as V3412 or
V3415Set CROSSOVER FREQUENCY on VS18 to a frequency appropriate for your
full-range speakers. You don’t need to activate SUB CUT on your full-range
speakers in this setup.
VS18 BACK PANEL
-
INPUTS 1 AND 2
These combo inputs are designed for either TRS or XLR balanced plugs at line level, either from a mixer or another speaker. The source can be either mono or stereo. -
OUTPUTS 1 AND
These outputs feed through the signal(s) received from the input(s). If the crossover is not set to Full-Range Output, the output signal(s) will be altered by the crossover, which removes audio below the selected frequency, to allow your speakers that are fed by the sub to focus all their energy and fidelity on reproducing signals above the selected frequency. -
POLARITY
This switch lets you reverse the polarity on the power amp when needed to match the polarity of speakers that may operate with opposite polarity to the VS18, or to account for a phase difference due to the physical distance between the sub and the full range speakers it is operating with. Once you get your VS18 operating as part of your full setup with your full-range speakers, try both settings of this switch, and leave the switch on the setting that provides the most low frequency impact. -
LEVEL SWITCH
Set this switch to match the output level of your source:
– Use +4 when your source operates at +4dBu
– Use -10 when your source operates at -10dBV
If you notice that the rear panel LIMIT LED or front panel LED is easily or frequently lit red, even when you have the LEVEL knob turned to a low setting, set this switch to +4 rather than -10. -
VOLUME KNOB
Sets volume of internal speaker. -
CHARGE JACK
Provides power for mobile devices. -
TIME ALIGNING DELAY
After you’ve set up your system including the VS18 subwoofer and your full- range speakers, and are playing audio through the system to evaluate the low frequency response, set the POLARITY switch for maximum low frequency impact, and then turn this knob until maximumsub bass is heard. -
CROSSOVER
This knob controls the high precision DSP crossover. Select a value between 70 and 150Hz to have the audio below the selected frequency filtered out of the output signals. Select Full-Range Output to disable the crossover, and output the same full range audio received at the outputs. The audio sent to the internal power amp and speaker will also be filtered, so the subwoofer’s speaker produces only audio below the crossover frequency. When Full-Range Output is chosen, the subwoofer’s speaker limits its top frequency range to 150Hz. -
LEDS
– POWER: this LED and front LED will light white when power is on.
– SIGNAL: this LED lights green when audio input is detected.
– LIMIT: this LED and front LED light red when limiter is activated due to very high level audio input, indicating the VOLUME knob should be turned down to avoid distorted sound. If the LIMIT LED comes on when the VOLUME knob is already at a low level, try setting the LEVEL switch to +4. -
IEC POWER INPUT Plug in the IEC AC power cable here.
-
VOLTAGE SELECTOR
Configures VS18 for your territory’s voltage. 100-120V is the standard in the USA. -
FUSE CARRIER
If the speaker will not power on and you suspect its fuse may have blown, turn off the power switch, and open the fuse compartment using a small flat blade screwdriver. If metal strip in fuse is broken, replace with T6.3 AL 250V fuse for 100-120 volt operation, or T3.15 AL 250V for 220-240 volt operation. -

HEARING DAMAGE AND PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE SPLs
Harbinger VARI Series powered loudspeakers are capable of producing extremely
loud volume levels that can cause permanent hearing damage to performers,
production crews or the audience. Hearing protection is recommended during
long-term exposure to high SPLs (sound pressure levels).
Remember, if it hurts, it is definitely too loud! Long term exposure to high
SPLs first causes temporary threshold shifts; limiting your ability to hear
the actual loudness and exercise good judgment. Repeated long term exposure to
high SPLs will cause permanent hearing loss.
Please note the recommended exposure limits in the accompanying table.
More information about these limits is available on the US government
Occupational Safety and Health (OSHA) website at:
www.osha.gov.

Harbinger provides, to the original purchaser, a two (2) year limited warranty
on materials and workmanship on all Harbinger cabinets, loudspeaker and
amplifier components from the date of purchase.
For warranty support, please visit our website at
www.HarbingerProAudio.
com, or contact our Support Team at
888-286-1809 for assistance. Harbinger
will repair or replace the unit at Harbinger’s discretion.
This warranty does not cover service or parts to repair damage caused by
neglect, abuse, normal wear and tear and cosmetic appearance to the cabinetry
not directly attributed to defects in materials or workmanship. Also excluded
from coverage are damages caused directly or indirectly due to any service,
repair(s), or modifications of the cabinet, which has not been authorized or
approved by Harbinger. This two (2) year warranty does not cover service or
parts to repair damage caused by accident, disaster, misuse,
abuse, burnt voice-coils, over-powering, negligence, inadequate packing or
inadequate shipping procedures.
The sole and exclusive remedy of the foregoing limited warranty shall be
limited to the repair or replacement of any defective or non-conforming
component. All warranties including, but not limited to, the express warranty
and the implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular
purpose are limited to the two (2) year warranty period. Some states do not
allow limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above
limitation may not apply to you. There are no express warranties beyond those
stated here. In the event that applicable law does not allow the limitation of
the duration of the implied warranties to the warranty period, then the
duration of the implied warranties shall be limited to as long as is provided
by applicable law. No warranties apply after that period.
Retailer and manufacturer shall not be liable for damages based upon
inconvenience, loss of use of product, loss of time, interrupted operation or
commercial loss or any other incidental or consequential damages including but
not limited to lost profits, downtime, goodwill, damage to or replacement of
equipment and property, and any costs of recovering, reprogramming, or
reproducing any program or data stored in equipment that is used with
Harbinger products. This guarantee gives you specific legal rights; you may
have other legal rights, which vary from state to state.
