Select the Desired Crossover Mode

All models are equipped with a Crossover Mode switch. Before using, set the Crossover Mode switch to the desired position using a flat-tip screwdriver. The switch has a slot- ted shaft; insert the screwdriver tip into the slot and turn the shaft so the slot points to the desired mode. Do not change switch positions with power applied.

FULL RANGE: This setting uses the internal crossover net- work. Connect the full-range input signal to Speakon pins 1+ and 1-.

BI-AMP:This setting bypasses the internal crossover net- work and connects Speakon pins 1+ and 1- to the low-fre- quency (LF) driver and pins 2+ and 2- to the high-frequency (HF) driver. Signal processing ahead of the amplifier is required; the HF driver can easily be damaged if full range program is applied! Use a four-wire cable and an amplifier configured to operate in bi-amp mode.

BIAMP OPERATION- Signal processing ahead of the amplifier is required; the HF driver can easily be damaged if full range program is applied!

Make the Required Connections

All models are equipped with two Neutrik NL4-series air- tight Speakon connectors. The two connectors are wired in parallel, allowing for multiple cabinets to be connected in parallel by plugging one cabinet into another with a suitable cable.

Connector pinout is determined by the Crossover Mode switch setting. Full Range selection uses Speakon pins 1+ and 1-. Bi-amp selection uses pins 1+ and 1- for the LF driver, 2+ and 2- for the HF driver. There are pinout charts printed on the connector plate.

Maintain proper speaker and amplifier con- nection polarity throughout the entire system. All positive-marked loudspeaker terminals should be connected to positive-marked ampli- fier output terminals. This will provide the best possible low-frequency output from your sys- tem.

Speakon plug pinouts- The Speakon plugs that are con- nected to the loudspeaker cabinets should conform to the pin outs shown at right. The connectors are shown from the wire-insertion end and show the inside of the disassembled Speakon plug.
