The EX500 is a perfect addition to any pair of powered full range enclosures like the Samson EX20 and EX30.
Below is a typical system set-up using the EX500 with a mixer and a pair of powered satellite loudspeakers. The
EX500’s input and outputs utilize industry standard XLR connectors. For a detailed wiring diagram, see the sec-
tion EX500 Connections on page 12. Follow the steps below the diagram to set up your system.

EX500 MONO SUB WITH POWERED SATELLITES

Connect the mixer’s left output to the EX500’s left
input and the mixer’s right output to the EX500’s right
input. Now connect the EX500’s left output to the
input of the left side powered satellite, and the
EX500’s right output to the input of the right side
satellite. Switch the Stereo/Mono selector switch to
the MONO position.

Now adjust the crossover SWEEP to the desired fre-
quency. For the Expedition EX20 & EX30 select 80-
100Hz. If you are using another brand of powered
speaker as satellites with the EX500, consult their
respective owners manuals for the recommended
crossover point.

Lower your mixer’s master outputs to all the way off.
Now set the level of your powered satellites up to the
normal operating level. Run an audio signal (like
some music from a CD) through your mixer and raise
the level to a comfortable listening volume. Now
slowly raise the EX500 Level control and listen to the
low frequency output. Adjust the EX500 to the level
of low frequency output that you like. Now, when
you raise and lower your mixer’s output, the EX500
and satellites will track at the same relative volume.
