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.
Mono Speakon Connection
• Speakon outputs are wired Pin 1+
positive (hot) and Pin 1– negative
(cold).
1/4" TS Connection
• 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.

the internal amplifi ers may overheat and

Allow at least six inches of free space
behind the powered mixer when in use.
