CONNECTIONS, CONTROLS, AND INDICATORS:
1 IEC POWER SOCKET WITH INTEGRAL FUSE HOLDER
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: BEFORE using this equipment, make certain that the operating voltage switch
(Switch 3, 110-120V or 220-240V) is set to the correct position! The mains voltage of your energy supplier
and the operating voltage of the speaker must match! According to the voltage range, always replace the
fuse only with a fuse of the same type with the same rating (printed on the rear panel)! If the fuse blows
repeatedly, please contact an authorised service centre.

POWER
On / off switch. Before switching the equipment on or off, always adjust the volume to zero (turn the VOLUME
control 6 all the way to the left). In order to avoid noise when switching the equipment on and off, the
speaker should always be turned on as the last link in a PA system and turned off first.
3
110-120V / 220-240V
Switch for setting the operating voltage. The mains voltage of your energy supplier and the operating voltage
of the speaker must match!
4 INPUT
Balanced XLR input for microphone and line signals. The adjustment is made using Switch 9 (MIC / LINE).
NOTE: The XLR input does not have phantom power.
5 LINK
Balanced XLR output. Provides the option of sending the signal to additional active speakers. The signal at
the Link socket is the same as the signal at INPUT socket 4, regardless of the positions of the Volume, EQ
Preset, and MIC/LINE controls.
6 VOLUME
Volume control for the active speaker. Before switching the equipment on or off, always adjust the volume to
zero (VOLUME control all the way to the left).
7
EQ PRESETS
Three equalizer presets are available for optimal adaptation of the speaker to the spatial conditions, listening
habits, and intended use.
FLAT (middle switch position): The speaker has a balanced sound with a linear frequency response. This is
the standard setting for most applications with voice or music reproduction.
LOUDNESS (right switch position): Bass and treble are specifically boosted in order to obtain a full, clear
sound even at lower volumes.
MONITOR (left switch setting): Bass and treble are purposely reduced in order to avoid interfering bass
frequencies and feedback during use as a stage monitor.
8 GROUND LIFT
When the switch is not depressed, ground loop hum can be eliminated if devices with a different ground
potential are connected. If the switch is pressed, the ground-lift function is deactivated.
