MICROPHONE INPUTS 
 

There are three microphone inputs, which can be used simultaneously: 

DYNAMIC

 

- for standard dynamic cartridge microphones 

CONDENSER

  - for electret or condenser microphones, which require phantom power    

(supplied from the amplifier) 

WIRELESS

 

- accepts line-level output from wireless microphone receiver  

 

LINE IN L+R (SEPARATE-COMBINED) 

Combines the separate left and right 

AUX LINE IN 

channels. This combined signal will be  

amplified and appear on both the 

LEFT

PROBLEM SOLVING 
HOWLBACK

 is the howl or screech often heard in sound reinforcement systems.  It is caused 

by sound from the loudspeaker returning to the microphone.  AmpliVox systems utilize proven 
acoustical principles to minimize this; however, there is no way to completely eliminate 
howlback under conditions of high amplification.  If howlback occurs check the following: 
1.   User covering the head of the microphone.  Hold microphone under head slots. 
2.   Sound can easily re-enter microphone.  Keep loudspeaker turned toward audience. Note: 

sound can be reflected from hard surface back through the microphone. [Turn speaker]   

3.   User holding microphone in a reflecting position. [Turn microphone] 
4.   Volume setting too high. [Reduce microphone channel volume; compensate by speaking 

louder or closer to the microphone.] 

NO SOUND 

Make sure amplifier 

POWER 

switch is turned on and red LED is lit. If switch is on and LED is 

not lit, check to see that batteries are properly connected and at full charge. If using optional 
power adapter, check to see that front panel connector is properly seated, and verify that power 
source is live.
