CONNECTION PLATE SYSTEM

Make your initial connections with all the equipment powered off, and ensure that all the main volume controls are turned completely down.

1. Connect one side of the signal cable at your audio mixer into output left / right (with  Stereo-Jack or XLR) and the other side of the cable into the line input (Stereo-Jack) of your active speaker cabinet.
2. Connect the power cord to mains.
3. Turn on your mixer first, then the active speaker cabinets.
4. Turn up the volume control of the active speaker cabinets.
5. Use PFL function to get the proper input level for the mixer, and adjust the Main Mix Level control to manipulate the output level.
6. After using, turn off your stereo power amplifier first, then the mixer.

Make your initial connections with all the equipment powered off, and ensure that all the main volume controls are turned completely down.

Two Active Subwoofers & Two Passive Satellite Speakers

1. Connect one side of the signal cable to the output of your mixer (left / right) with a TRS or XLR connector and the other side of the cable to the line input (combo) in the active subwoofer (with a TRS to XLR connector). Then connect the speak on cable from the output of power in the Subwoofer to the satellites input.
2. Complete other connections as illustrated.
3. Turn on your mixer first, then the stereo power amplifier.
4. Turn up the volume controls of your amplifier to about70%.
5. Use PFL function to get the proper input level for the mixer, and adjust the Main Mix Level control to manipulate the output level.

CONNECTION PLATE

SOHO S10 / S12 / S15 loudspeakers are the perfect tool for singer-songwriters touring the local coffee shops.
Bring your favorite axe and MIC, SOHO S10 / S12 / S15 loudspeakers and cables and power cords. Compact and portable perfection.
In this example, a dynamic microphone is connected to the input1 of a SOHO S10 / S12 / S15 loudspeakers.
Be sure that the MIC / line switch is down in order to get an extra 30dB boost for the MIC.
Be sure the switch is OUT if anything other than a microphone is attached to the input1.
Adjust the level for the MIC now.
Now grab your axe and plug it directly into the input2.
Or if you use effects, connect the guitar to the effects input and anther cable from the effects output to the input2.
Adjust the level for the guitar now.

WIRE CONNECTIONS

For Active Speaker Cabinets

As to these circumstances. audio connections is mostly intended for the signal flow so determine the wire configuration according to your real application system and its connecting facility. Normally, you have the following choices:

• Balanced
  

• Unbalanced
  

For Passive Speaker Cabinets

Please only use the power connectors to make connections with other signal source equipment for the passive speaker cabinets. The power connector has four terminals:1 +, 1-, 2+, 2-.

In our cabinets, only 1 +/1- are used to connect the Speaker+/Speaker-, and 2 +/2- are not used.
