OPTIONAL CONNECTION USING BINDING POSTS
M-Series Power Amplifier: Stereo Mode Connection
The Channel 1 Speakon output connector
has four conductors and carries both
channels (1± is Channel 1 out and 2± is
Channel 2 out). This is ideal for driving
a biampable two-way speaker cabinet.
The Amp mode switch is set to STEREO,
Channel 1’s input is jumpered over to Channel 2 using
the Thru connector on Channel 1. The X-over switch on
Channel 1 is set to LPF while Channel 2 is set to HPF.
Channel 1 carries the low frequencies (below 150 Hz) to
the low-frequency driver, and Channel 2 carries the high
frequencies (above 150 Hz) to the high-frequency driver.
Many biampable cabinets are configured to accept both
LF and HF signals on a single Speakon connector.
