Dual Mono / Bi Amp Mode - PA240 only
Dual mono requires the use of a PA240 for each channel.
On one of the PA240’s, connect the
RED
positive speaker
terminal labelled
L+
to the positive LF terminal of your
left speaker. Similarly, connect the
BLACK
negative
speaker terminal labelled
L-
to the negative LF terminal
of your left speaker.
WARNING: Speakers that support biamping
have a metal strip that connects the low
frequency (LF) and high frequency (HF)
terminals. This MUST be removed in a bi-amped
system
Using a second speaker cable connect the
RED
positive
speaker terminal labelled
R+
to the positive HF terminal
of your left speaker. Similarly, connect the
BLACK
negative speaker terminal labelled
R-
to the negative
HF terminal of your speaker.
Repeat this process for the right speaker, using the same
terminals on the other PA240.

Note: Unit should be connected via RCA or XLR.
Both versions shown for illustrative purposes
only.
In this setup only one interconnect is required to
each power amplifier and it should be connected to
the
IN L
input. The interconnects can be either XLR
(recommended for longer cable runs) or phono (RCA).
Set the INPUT switch on both of the PA240’s to the
appropriate setting for the cables used.
Note:
The
IN R
input has no function in this
arrangement.
