Manual Owner’s

Mixing Console (Mackie Onyx 1640i shown)

Similar to the previous hookup diagram, this one adds some low end to your portable PA. It is perfect for the same setups as mentioned previously [sound reinforcement, weddings, vocal reinforcement, portable PA for a full band of all genres, etc.], as well as for DJs and other functions that call for additional low-end thump. This is the perfect setup when you need an ultra-portable PA with A LOT of output!

In this example, the left and right main outputs from a mixer feed the inputs of a pair of Mackie HD1501 powered subwoofers. HIGH PASS OUTPUT A of each subwoofer feed the MAIN INPUTs of the Mackie HD1221 powered loudspeakers. The HD1221s reproduce the mid-to-high frequencies in stereo, and the subs provide the low frequencies in stereo.

If just a little extra low end is needed, a single HD1801 may be used with a pair of HD1221s and still retain a stereo image.
