Mains power connection

• The TBV123-AN loudspeaker and the TBV118L-AN subwoofer also facilitate mains power connection using power cables with Neutrik power CON locking power connectors.
• To set up mains power between TBV-AN loudspeakers, first run a power cable terminating in a power CON connector to the AC INPUT connector on the rear panel of the first unit. To power additional speakers downline, run power cables equipped with power CON connectors at both ends from the first speaker’s AC LINK OUTPUT to the AC INPUT of the next TBV-AN loudspeaker in series.
• The maximum number of linked systems depends on the AC supply voltage as well as the maximum current draw of the individual systems in the power chain. linking a power chain, make sure that the integrated connectors, as well as the supplied AC mains cable, are never overloaded.
• If you are uncertain how to calculate the total current draw, please contact your dealer.
• Always turn off the power to the units before making connections.
