CAUTION: Connect the power cable only after

you have absolutely made sure that the local

mains voltage matches the voltage specified

on the device. If you connect to the wrong

voltage, you may destroy the electronic com-

ponents of the MATRIX 1000 system.

Caution: The Left and Right 10” two-way outputs are

designed for a nominal impedance of 4 ohms. Under no

circumstance may the impedance dip below the value as

this might damage the MATRIX 1000 amplifier.

SETTINGS

Left & Right Gain Controls: After turning on

your MATRIX 1000 using the on/off switch

located on the rear amplifier plate of the

active subwoofer, set the LEFT and RIGHT

Gain controls to the center position (or facing

straight up). This is the ideal position to oper-

ate the MATRIX 1000 if you have connected

a mixer to the system. Alternatively, if you

have connected a CD Player or other sound

source, it is recommend that the Gain con-

trols are turned all the way clockwise to

achieve peak volume.

During performance, if your MATRIX

1000 shows signs of distortion, check the

sound source and, if applicable, reduce the

sound levels. If it is not possible to reduce the

sound levels at the source, simply turn down

the gain levels on the rear amplifier panel of

the MATRIX 1000.

SETTINGS

Subwoofer Level Control: It is recommended

to set the Subwoofer Gain control to halfway.

At this position – and with the 10” Two-way

speakers set in a similar position – the

MATRIX 1000 should be perfectly balanced. If

you wish to add bass, simply turn up the

Subwoofer Gain control.

Ground Lift Switch: At times you may experi-

ence a low-frequency hum. At this time,

engage the ground lift switch to eliminate this

hum. If this does not eliminate the hum, please

check cabling and sound sources.
