1. INSPECTION
Your NADY AUDIO Portable Sound System 150 was
carefully packed at the factory in packaging designed to
protect the units in shipment. Before installing and using
your unit, carefully examine the packaging and all contents
for any signs of physical damage that may have occurred in
transit.
[Please note: Nady Systems is not responsible for shipping

2. SETUP
After transporting the PSS-150 to the desired location, lay
the unit down on its flat side. Unclasp the side panel
latches by pulling up on the yellow tab to release and
unhook the latch. Carefully lift off the speakers and then
remove the speaker stands and accessories from inside the
unit.
Mixer Section
Position the PSS-150 mixer section on its flat surface with
the control panel facing up. Parts of the unit can become
very warm during use. This is normal during operation.
Care should be taken to ensure that there is enough space
behind the Mixer Section for cooling. Also, do not place the
Portable Sound System on high temperature devices such
as power amplifiers, etc., or the unit may overheat in
operation.
Although the Portable Sound System is shielded against
radio frequency (RF) and electromagnetic interference
(EMI), extremely high fields of RF and EMI should be
avoided.
Please make sure that the power unit supplied is marked
for the correct voltage in your area (120VAC/60 Hz or
230VAC/50 Hz). Power requirements for electrical
equipment differ from area to area. In new installations and
portable sound systems, or any situation in which the AC
power is in question, it is wise to confirm the voltage and
use the appropriate power supply unit before connecting it
to power sources.
Europe (except UK): 230V, 50Hz
UK and Australia: 240V, 50Hz
USA and Canada: 120V, 60 Hz
For other areas, please check with local authorities.
Speakers and Stands
Fully extend the speaker stand tripod legs and tighten the
base thumbscrew. Extend the pole of the stand to the
desired height and insert the safety pin completely through
the stand hole above the pole thumbscrew. Lower the pole
so that the pin rests on the holder and tighten the pole
thumbscrew.
Setup the stands on a flat surface where the speakers will
be located and not disturbed. Place the speakers on the
stands and position them as desired. Note: facing the
speakers towards any of the microphones connected with
the PSS-150 will increase the chance of feedback.
Connect the speaker cables to the input jacks on the lower
left front panel of both the Left and Right speakers.
Connect the other end of each cable to the corresponding
Left and Right speaker outputs on the rear panel of the
PSS-150 mixer section. Position the length of the cables
so they will not be a safety hazard to people.
WARNING: Connect only the supplied speakers to the
PSS-150. Never connect additional speakers to the
PSS-150.
Inputs
Connect all sound sources to the appropriate inputs i.e.,
microphones, keyboards, CD players, karaoke machines.
The supplied SP-1 Starpower™ microphone is an all-
purpose professional stage and recording microphone with
rugged metal construction and excellent clear, transparent
sound across the spectrum.
When ready to operate, plug the AC cord into the power
source. Make sure that the unit is turned off before
connecting to the AC power source to avoid possible loud
transients which can damage your speakers or your ears.
Before turning on, connect up the speakers and all inputs
and outputs desired and turn down the Master Volume.
