MAIN

OUT

Similar to the previous hookup diagram, this one adds some low end to your portable PA. It is perfect for the

same setups as mentioned previously [sound reinforcement, weddings, vocal reinforcement, portable PA for a full

band of all genres, etc.], as well as for DJs and other functions that call for additional low-end thump. This is the

perfect setup when you need an ultra-portable PA with A LOT of output!

In this example, the left and right main outputs from a mixer feed the inputs of a pair of Mackie HD1501

powered subwoofers. HIGH PASS OUTPUT A of each subwoofer feed the MAIN INPUTs of the Mackie HD1221

powered loudspeakers. The HD1221s reproduce the mid-to-high frequencies in stereo, and the subs provide the

low frequencies in stereo.

If just a little extra low end is needed, a single HD1801 may be used with a pair of HD1221s and still retain a

stereo image.
