Introduction

The E160P is a bi-amped powered full-range speaker designed to meet most any requirement. It projects 200 watts of clear, full sound. Features of this product include a Mic input, two parallel 1/4” input jacks, Volume control, loudness switch, and a speaker/line input select switch. This two way cabinet is protected against overcurrent and clipping via non- switchable (built in) limiters, with red LED clip indicators. .

Loundness Switch

The Loudness switch, when pushed IN, activates a low-frequency boost when desired. This feature is automatically reduced at high volumes to protect the speaker.

Ground Lift Switch

If a hum, or buzz is detected from the speaker, try setting the switch to the GND LIFT position (OUT position). The switch should otherwise be left in the GND (IN position).

Volume Control

Set the Volume Control to the desired output level. Start with a high Volume setting, with you mixer turned down.

Then, further adjust the mixer and E160P’s Volumes for best results.

SPEAKER		Amplifier
LINE / MIC
		The E160P features two
		amplifiers, one for the high
	MIC	frequency tweeter and one
		for the woofer. The E160P is
E160P		thermally protected . If the
		amplifier’s heatsink is blocked
		in any way, the output will
		gradually attenuate until it
		is thermally acceptable to
		the amplifier, otherwise it will

continue to reduce power and eventually shut down. The amplifier, once cooled down, will turn back ON producing full power. The woofer is

protected against overcurrent and clipping, should the amp sense that either condition exists, it will start to reduce the output momentarily and roll off the low- frequency response ranging from 80 Hz to 150 Hz . The loudness button is defeated automatically at high power outputs and does not need to be touched.
