Using the P1500X as a floor/stage monitor

The P1500X can be used as a floor monitor by laying the cabinet on its side at a fixed 45 degree angle toward the performers. It is recommended to engage the HIGH PASS FILTER which cuts low frequencies to minimize any low frequency bass-coupling or stage rumble between the loudspeaker and the stage platform. Be sure that the P1500X and cables are not located where they can become a tripping hazard. It is recommended to use right angle XLR or right angle ¼” jacks where possible to avoid cable binding between the loudspeaker and stage platform.
