CONNECTING THE SPEAKERS • CONEXIÓN DE LOS ALTAVOCES

BRANCHEMENT DES ENCEINTES • DIE LAUTSPRECHER ANSCHLIEßEN

SPEAKER CONNECTION

All passive speakers feature two Speakon NL4MP connectors, one labeled INPUT to receive input from your sound system/power amplifier. The other spare connector can be used to parallel-connect an additional speaker. (keeping in mind the impedance considerations mentioned below).

Make sure to wire the Neutrik connectors as shown below. Always use proper speaker cable — NO shielded instrument or line cable for all speaker connections.

CONEXIÓN DE LOS ALTAVOCES

Todos los modelos pasivos tienen 2 conectores Speakon NL4MP, uno marcado como INPUT para recibir la señal de entrada desde su amplificador/sistema de sonido. El otro conector puede ser usado para conectar paralelamente un altavoz adicional.

(teniendo en cuenta las consideraciones de impedancias mencionadas más abajo).

Asegúrese de cablear los conectores Neutrik tal y como se indica abajo. Siempre use cable de altavoz adecuado - NO cable de instrumento o cable de líne - para todas las conexiones de altavoces.

BRANCHEMENT DE L’ENCEINTE

Toutes les enceintes passives sont équipées de deux embases Speakon NL4MP, l’une nommée INPUT (ENTREE) permet le branchement du cordon HP provenant de votre amplificateur. La sec- onde embase - nommée LINK -, permet le branchement d’une enceinte additionnelle en mode parallèle. (Veiller à consulter la partie INSTRUCTIONS IMPEDANCE située ci-après).

Effectuer les branchements des connecteurs Speakon en respectant le schéma qui suit. Utiliser uniquement du cordon enceinte/HP — NE PAS utiliser de câble blindé instrument ou de câble

ligne — pour le câblage des enceintes.

LAUTSPRECHERANSCHLÜSSE

Anschlüsse. Der als INPUT bezeichnete Anschluss dient des Anschlusses an Ihre Beschallungsanlage oder Ihren Leistungsverstärker. Der zusätzliche Anschluss kann verwendet werden, um weitere Lautsprecher parallel zu verbinden. (beachten Sie hierbei die Impedanz-Thematik unterhalb).

Verbinden Sie den Neutrik-Stecker wie unterhalb beschrieben Verwenden Sie nur richtiges Lautspre- cherkabel — KEIN abgeschirmtes Instrumenten- oder Line-Kabel — für alle Verbindugen.

IMPEDANCE CONSIDERATIONS

When connecting speakers in parallel be sure to check the rated load impedance of the power ampli- fier. Most power amplifiers are capable of safely driving speakers with minimum impedance of 8 ohms or 4 ohms. A pair of parallel-connected 8-ohm speakers have a total impedance of 4 ohms. Two

8-ohm speakers can safely be paralleled on one output. 4-ohm speakers, however, should not be parallel-connected with other speakers.

CONSIDERACIONES SOBRE IMPEDANCIAS

Cuando conecte altavoces en paralelo asegúrese de comprobar la impedancia de carga del amplifi- cador.Muchos amplificadores son capaces de manipular altavoces con impedancias mínimas de 8 o 4 ohms. Una pareja de altavoces de 8 ohms conectados en paralelo tienen una impedancia total de

4 ohms. Dos altavoces de 8 ohms pueden instalarse en paralelo con seguridad en una de las salidas. Altavoces de 4 ohms, en cambio, no deben conectarse en paralelo con otros altavoces.

INSTRUCTIONS IMPEDANCE

Lors de tout branchement d’enceintes en parallèle, vérifier l’impédance de l’amplificateur. La plupart des amplificateurs est capable de fonctionner parfaitement avec toute enceinte dont l’impédance est de 8 ohms ou 4 ohms. Toute paire d’enceinte dont l’impédance individuelle est de 8 ohms fonctionnera sous 4 ohms en mode parallèle. 2 enceintes de 8 ohms peuvent être branchées en toute sécurité en mode parallèle. Ceci n’est pas le cas avec toute enceinte dont l’impédance nominale serait de 4 ohms.

IMPEDANZ BERÜCKSICHTIGEN

Beim parallelen Betrieb von Lautsprechern beachten Sie die angegebene Impdanzbelastbarkeit Ihres Leistungsverstärkers. Die meisten Leistungsverstärker sind in der Lage, Lautsprecher mit einer Imped- anz von 4 oder 8 Ohm sicher zu betreiben. Zwei parallel betriebene 8-Ohm-Lautsprecher haben eine Gesamtimpedanz von 4 Ohm. Zwei 8-Ohm-Lautsprechen können sicher an einem Ausgang parallel betrieben werden. 4-Ohm-Lautsprecher jedoch sollten nicht mit anderen Lautsprechern parallel betrieben werden.
