The TRS wiring convention is as follows: 
 

Pin 1:   Shield 

 

Pin 2:   +/Hot 

 

Pin 3:  -/Cold 

 

AC Mains Connection 

Connect the supplied AC mains cord to the IEC connector (RS 121/151 Models) or Neutrik® powerCON® socket 
(RS 123/153 Models) on the rear of the loudspeaker. Connect the other end to an AC mains supply receptacle, 
nominally 115V 60Hz or 230V 50 Hz as labeled on the loudspeaker. If necessary, have a qualified electrician 
change the cable plug as required for compatibility with the local AC mains receptacle. 

WARNING

:

  

Before connecting an RS loudspeaker to the AC mains supply, completely turn down the input signal to 

the loudspeaker using the input level attenuator. Failing to do say may result in excessive and possibly damaging 
sound pressure levels emanating from the loudspeaker when powered.

 

Linking power (only on RS 123/153 Models) 

The Neutrik® powerCON® AC mains and AC loop connectors are 
wired in parallel to provide an AC mains inlet and outlet on each 
RS  product. The blue AC mains inlet mates with a Neutrik® 
powerCON®  NACFC3A (supplied). The white AC mains outlet 
mates with a Neutrik®  powerCON® NACFC3B.  Therefore, to loop 
the AC mains from enclosure to enclosure, connect an AC mains 
jumper cable as shown  (jumper is not included with RS  series 
products).  

Up to four additional RS 123/153 products can be looped in this 
fashion. Use an AC loop connector to daisy-chain AC mains power from one enclosure to another. The 
maximum, continuous load must not exceed 12A for the 115V version and 6A for the 230V version. 

NOTE:

  The circuit breaker only protects the AC loop outlet, not the AC mains connector. If the continuous load 

connected to the AC loop outlet exceeds the rated load, the circuit breaker will trip. For this situation, reduce the 
connected load and then manually reset the circuit breaker.
