SxA180 Woofer System Setup

To get your woofer system into operation as quickly as possible, please observe the following

·Plug the 3-terminal IEC 16-gauge ac cable into a grounded line receptacle. Extension cords can be used as necessary but make sure that they are the 3-conductor type that are 14 gauge or greater, and are properly grounded to avoid electrical hazards and extraneous noise.

·Turn on the power switch and ensure that the system is receiving power by monitoring the status LED power on. MAKE SURE THAT THE LEVEL CONTROLS ARE TURNED DOWN TO AVOID TRANSIENTS OR UNEXPECTED LOUD SOUND.

·Attach a 3-pin XLR cable to the line-level input from a line-level output on your mixer.

·If you are using the SxA180 with an SxA two-way system, you will want to use the high- pass output to run the signal from the SxA180 to the two-way (See Figure 5). Using the filtered output will insure that the SxA180 only is reproducing low bass information which will let the two-way system sound cleaner and play louder. The unfiltered output is the best way to parallel the signal to other SxA180s or if you want more mid-bass output from the speaker setup.steps and precautions:
