Owners Manual
THANK YOU FOR YOUR PURCHASE OF THE KLIPSCH
WA-2 WIRELESS SUBWOOFER KIT!
The WA-2 will only operate with select Klipsch, Energy, Mirage and Jamo brand
subwoofers that have a “WA Port” input. The WA-2 is a 2.4 GHz product designed to
wirelessly transmit a signal up to a 50 foot radius.
Packing List:
1. Transmitter
2. Receiver
3. Power supply
4. Audio cable
5. Velcro strips
6. This Owner’s Manual
SETUP
1. Decide where the subwoofer will go (refer to your subwoofer owner’s manual).
2. Most receivers (and pre-amplifiers) have a line level subwoofer output labeled
Subwoofer Pre Out, Sub Out, SW Out, etc. If you have this, connect one end of
the supplied audio cable to it and connect the other end of the cable into WA-2
transmitter input ‘C’ . In absence of a subwoofer output connect Left and Right
channel Pre-Amp outputs from your receiver (if provided) to ‘C’ and ‘B’ inputs on
the transmitter.
3. Connect the cable from the WA-2 receiver to the “WA Port” on the back of the
subwoofer. Carefully match the 4 pins of the cable to the corresponding 4 holes
on the WA Port and gently push in until connected. Improper pin alignment can
result in damage to the connector.
4. Plug supplied power supply cable into ‘E’ on the WA-2 transmitter and plug other
end into an AC wall outlet.
5. Check to make sure Gain Switch ‘A’ is in middle position (0dB). This position best
matches the output voltage of most receivers and processors.
6. Turn receiver/pre-amplifier on.
7. Turn subwoofer to “On” or “Auto On” position.
8. The WA-2 transmitter and receiver should be automatically “paired”with their
green LED’s ‘D’ on solid and the subwoofer should now be operational.
9. You can use the supplied Velcro strips to attach the WA-2 receiver to the back
of the subwoofer. Some subwoofers have two screws on back that the receiver
attachezs to.
TROUBLESHOOTING
- If the subwoofer does not operate and the red LED’s ‘D’ are flashing on the WA-2
transmitter and receiver, a simple “pairing” is needed. Push and hold in button
‘F’ on the transmitter while pushing and holding button ‘G’ on the receiver and
keep pushed until both LED’s stop flashing and glow solid (approximately 5
seconds).
- Since the WA-2 is a wireless device it may encounter RF interference from other
wireless devices in the same area. If there is difficulty “pairing” the transmitter
and receiver, or their signal connection “fades”, you may need to move them
closer together and/or farther away from other “wireless” products.
- If you do not get a signal, or get a low signal level from the subwoofer, make
sure the subwoofer out level control on your surround receiver is set correctly
(usually at the halfway point sometimes labeled “0dB”). If your subwoofer out
level on your surround receiver is correct, and you have adjusted the subwoofer
volume level and the signal is still too low, move the gain control ‘A’ to the right
(+12dB) to increase the signal to the subwoofer. If the signal is too high, move the
gain control to the left (-12dB) to reduce signal strength.
