Amplifier connection: In order to avoid damage, it is advisable to establish and follow a pattern for turning on and off your
equipment. With all system parts connected, turn on source equipment, tape decks, cd players, mixers, effects processors etc.
BEFORE turning on your Bass Amplifier. Many products have large transient surges at turn on and off which can cause damage to
your speakers. By turning on your Bass Amplifier LAST and making sure its Volume control is set to minimum any transients from
other equipment will not reach your loudspeakers. Wait until all system parts have stabilised; usually a couple of seconds. Similarly
when turning off your system always turn down the Volume control on your Bass Amplifier and then turn off its power before
turning off other equipment.
Cables: Always use good quality shielded cable for your instrument and small signal connections. Never use shielded or
microphone cable for any speaker connections as this will not be substantial enough to handle the amplifier load and could cause
damage to your amplifier system.
Caution: These professional loudspeaker systems are capable of generating very high sound pressure levels. Use care with
placement and operation to avoid exposure to excessive levels that can cause permanent hearing damage. (Refer to guidelines on
