XP650 LIVE SET UP

A NOTE ABOUT SPEAKER IMPEDANCE (

) and CABLES

As you add more speakers to an amp, the total impedance (ohms) is

reduced. The amplifiers will drive an impedance of 2

or higher. This means up

to four 8

speakers, or two 4

speakers, for each amp.

Speaker cables should be a minimum 16 gauge for up to 50ft (PH50).

Heavy-duty Speakon™ 12 gauge cables (SP100) are recommended for lengths
over 50ft.
