P1800SX Mixer - Rear Panel

The P1800SX powered subwoofer features an assortment of controls and connections similar to the P1500X but unique to the needs of this subwoofer. It is suggested to review the P1800SX mixer, as listed below, to take full advantage of the product features.

(A)SIGNAL/CLIP INDICATOR

Each of the two inputs is monitored by an indicator that provides status on the incoming audio signal. The SIGNAL indicator is illuminated when there is an audio signal present with a level greater than -30dB, approximately the lowest level before a MUTE condition. The CLIP indicator is illuminated when the audio signal is clipping and adjustments must be made to avoid amplifier shutdown and poor sound quality. Adjustments to prevent clipping are made by reducing the input signal gain/level on the appropriate channel.

(B)INPUT 1 & INPUT 2 INPUT JACKS

A combination input allows for both XLR and ¼” TRS cable types.

(C)THRU 1 & THRU 2

The balanced XLR output is a parallel connection to the respective INPUT 1 and INPUT 2. The level controls for INPUT 1 & INPUT 2 will not affect the signal on the direct output connection.
