Tapco MIX10FXP manual SPEAKER-LEVEL Outputs, Mono Speakon Connection, Ventilation, TS Connection

3. SPEAKER-LEVEL OUTPUTS

These output connections provide speaker-level output power from the internal power amplifi ers to your passive speakers. The peak power output is 500 watts per channel into 4 ohms.

Only passive loudspeakers should

be connected to these speaker- level outputs.

The outputs can be selected with the amp mode switch (12) to be either the stereo main mix, or the mono main mix on output A, and the monitor mix on output B.

Two common types of connector are provided for your convenience: Speakons® and 1/4" TS.

•1/4" TS outputs are wired Tip positive, and Sleeve negative.

These two types of outputs are wired in parallel, and it is possible to use both types at once.

The minimum impedance that

the powered mixer can handle

is 4 ohms per channel, and we recommend that you do not go

below this. If you are using both output styles per channel, make sure each loudspeaker is 8 ohms impedance or greater.
