Two KQ30s Stereo Operation
(continued)
If you are using a pre-amplifier, like a KICKER KQ5, then your signal chain should go from your source unit to the
KQ5 and then on to the KQ30s. The output of the KQ30s would then connect to the next component in your signal
path which is typically your electronic crossover or amplifier(s). (Fig. 1)
Check the STEREO/MONO switch on both KQ30s and make sure
they are in the MONO (in) position. Also check the EQ/BYPASS
switch on both KQ30s and make sure they are in the EQ (out)
positions. (Fig. 2)
**
When using the KQ30 in this setup the Right channel Output
of each unit is identical to the Left channel of that unit. This is
helpful if you need an additional Left or Right stereo channel out-
put to feed another device.
