3. In the event that the XLS112 over heats, due to improper
ventilation and/or high ambient temperature, the protection
circuit will activate placing it in the Standby Mode. The Rear
Panel Status LED Indicator will illuminate Red and the audio
will be muted. When the XLS112 has returned to a safe
operating temperature, normal operation will resume.
4. The XLS112’s Power Control Input will function within a 5 to
20 DC Voltage range.
5. To avoid damage, do not connect the speaker level output
terminals from any receiver, amplifier or integrated amplifier
to the inputs of the XLS112 Powered Subwoofer.
The McIntosh XLS112 Powered Subwoofer is designed for
Home Theater and Music Reproduction. It has a 12 inch
LD/HP
1
 woofer, a 400 watt amplifier and built-in high and
low pass filters.
The XLS112 Powered Subwoofer’s performance is
equivalent to the quality of McIntosh’s legendary line of
Amplifiers, Preamplifiers, Signal Processors, Signal
Sources and Loudspeakers, without imparting distortion or
coloration of its own. It also complements the capabilities
and the remarkably low distortion of McIntosh Power Am-
plifiers.
Many of today’s Loudspeakers are designed only for
Home Theater applications. Not so with the XLS112. It is
also designed for the accurate reproduction of  the low fre-
quencies contained in music. Motion picture sound effects,
explosions, and vehicle crashes require a wide dynamic
range and high sound levels. These sounds are such that a
speaker system having moderate distortion would repro-
duce them with little audible difference. This is not true
with the reproduction of music. Music is by nature and
definition harmonious. To reproduce it accurately, all forms
of distortion, both harmonic and intermodulation, must be
kept to a minimum. This has been the result of the design
of the new McIntosh XLS112 Powered Subwoofer. Each
component in the device has been carefully designed for
durability, efficiency, and above all, low distortion. The
McIntosh XLS112 Powered Subwoofer will reproduce mu-
sic accurately and function as an excellent Home Theater
Powered Subwoofer.
