Connections

Your PASW series speaker has an extremely flexible connection panel.

There are two Speakon jacks as well as two ¼” jacks. You can also hookup your speaker cabinet using the “Quick Connect” speaker terminals, which accommodate either wire leads or a banana plug. The jacks are wired in parallel, which allows you to daisy chain additional

speakers. Thus you can use one amplifier channel to power multiple speakers.

Make certain that the wires you are using are at least 12 gauge unshielded speaker cable (the lower the number, the thicker the wire). Do not use shielded “instrument” cables.

Hooking speakers up in parallel decreases the overall impedance, placing a greater load on the amplifier. Check your amplifier’s specifications to ensure that you are not overloading the channel.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE MORE THAN ONE JACK AS AN AMPLIFIER INPUT. DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE SPEAKER!

Operation

When powering on your equipment, make sure the volume level on the amplifier is turned all the way down. This is to avoid the “popping” noise, which could damage your speaker.

High frequencies are unidirectional while low frequencies are omni directional. Being that this is a subwoofer, it is not necessary for there to be
