Connectors

INPUT 1

This balanced input accepts a standard XLR (female) connector. A broad range of signals from microphones (-48 dBu to 0 dBu nominal), audio mixing consoles, and electronic musical instruments may be connected here. When using a single audio input to the speaker, this is the input to use. The sensitivity of this input is controlled by the MIC/LINE SWITCH and the INPUT 1 rotary control.

INPUT 2 & 3

This 1/4” jack can accommodate one or two channels of audio. When a two-channel source is connected by means of a TRS 1/4” plug, both channels are summed to mono. A single channel source may also be connected here with a standard 1/4” TS plug. This input is intended for use with audio devices including cassette tape, CD, MP3 players, computer sound-card outputs, electronic keyboards, and electric/acoustic musical instruments. The level of INPUTS 2 & 3 is controlled by the INPUT 2 & 3 rotary control. See the APPLICATION EXAMPLES and CABLES AND CONNECTORS sections of this guide for details on how this input may be used.

OUT

This XLR (male) output connector works with the MIX/LOOP SWITCH (see below) to provide a method of sending audio from your EON10 G2.

Switches

MIC/LINE

The MIC/LINE switch effects only INPUT 1. It selects between two sensitivity ranges. This switch

is used to match the input sensitivity of the EON10 G2 with the output level of the device connected to INPUT 1. Depressing the MIC/LINE switch selects MIC (most sensitive) and causes the MIC/LINE LED to illuminate.

CAUTION: Before adjusting this switch, be certain to rotate the INPUT 1 control fully counter clockwise. After the MIC/LINE switch has been adjusted, slowly rotate the INPUT 1 control clockwise until the desired volume has been reached.

Use the MIC position (depressed) when a microphone is connected to INPUT 1.

Use the LINE position (disengaged) when a line level source such as an audio mixing console, audio playback device, or electronic musical instrument is connected to INPUT 1.

MIX/LOOP

This switch selects the source of the signal for the OUT connector.

CAUTION: Before adjusting this switch, be certain to set the input level control of any equipment connected to this output to its minimum gain (least sensitive) setting.

In the disengaged position, only the signal from the INPUT 1 connector is routed directly to the OUT connector. Changing the other settings on the audio panel will not effect the OUT signal. The INPUT 2 & 3 inputs will not be present at the OUT connector. Use this setting when you want to feed multiple EON powered speakers the same signal.

In the MIX position (depressed), a blend of all inputs to the speaker (INPUT 1 and 2 & 3) will be sent to the

OUT connector. Any changes to input level settings will affect the OUT signal. See the APPLICATION

EXAMPLES section for details on how this mode may be used.
