Internal/Hi

:

 Speaker connector to the two internal 10“ loudspeakers.  The type of signal present at this speaker connector varies, 

depending upon the selected mode of operation for the power amplifier.  When the amp mode selector is set to ISub,  this 
speakon receives a full range signal.  When the amp mode is set to Bi amp, the onboard active cross over 

(31) 

sends only the  Hi 

frequency content to this speakon, the Lo signal is sent to the Sub/Lo connector

(30)

.  The frequency of the active crossover is 150Hz, 

anything above 150Hz is sent to the this socket, anything below is sent to the Sub/Lo socket.  The level of the signal sent to the Hi 
socket is controlled by the active crossover level control allowing the desired balance of sound to be obtained ; the output to the Lo 
speaker remains fixed.  .

Sub/Lo

Speaker connector for connecting external Sub cabinets on the B2, or the internal Sub loudspeaker on the B3.  The type of 

signal present at this speaker connector varies, depending upon the selected mode of operation for the power amplifier.  When the amp 
mode selector is set to ISub, this speakon receives a  full range signal.  When the amp mode is set to Bi amp, the Lo frequency 
signal is sent to this speaker, the Hi signal is sent to the Internal/Hi socket  

(90)

.  The frequency of the active crossover is 150Hz, 

anything above 150 is sent to the Hi socket, anything below is sent to the Lo socket.  The level of the signal sent to Lo speaker is fixed.  
When the amp mode selector is switched to Bridge this speakon should not be used.

Power amp mode switch

:

 This switch selects the mode of operation of the B2/B3 power amplifier section.  Three modes of 

operation are available ISub, Bi-Amp, and Internal only.  
-In ISub mode the two onboard power amplifiers run in parallel supplying 750 watts RMS of full range signal to each of the two 
output connections 

(90) 

feeds the two 10“ loudspeakers and

 (91) 

supplies the single 15” loudspeaker on the B3 or is used for connection 

of an external cabinet on the B2.
 -In Bi amp mode the onboard active crossover splits the frequency response of the pre amplifier and sends any frequencies below 
150Hz to the (15“ Sub loudspeaker (B3 only) or 

(91)

 on the B2 model) and anything above 150Hz to the two 10” loudspeakers.

-In Internal only mode, Only the two 10“ loudspeakers are used.  No signal appears on the Sub/Lo connector. 

Descriptions for all other functions on the B2/B3 rear are identical to those listed on previous pages for B1 rear layout.
