Stereo Link

What’s Stereo Link?

This lets you use two KC-880 units to form a stereo PA system having a high output of 320 + 320 watts. This feature is called “Stereo Link.”

Two different connection methods are available for Stereo Link: basic connection using one 1/4” phone cable, and advanced connection using two 1/4” phone cables.

Making the connections using two 1/4” phone cables enables you to take full advantage of the mixing features of the two KC-880 units.

Adjust the R and L volume levels separately using their [VOLUME] knobs.

You can adjust the EQUALIZER ([LOW]/[MIDDLE]/[HIGH] knobs) independently for the L and R sides.

Basically, they should be set to the same positions, but you can adjust each one as necessary to suit the needs of a particular setup.
