Daisy-Chaining Multiple GSR10 and GSR12 Speakers
GSR speakers have outputs as well as inputs.
The “Thru” output XLR jacks are there to let you “daisy-chain” several speakers from one source. In this type of setup, a mono
source (whether from a single microphone, a mixer, or other device) is connected to the first GSR speaker’s Input. Then, an XLR
cable is connected from that speaker’s THRU jack to the Input on the next GSR speaker as shown in the figure below.
To connect multiple GSR speakers by daisy-chaining:
1
On the back of the speakers, turn the Level control down all the way (counter-clockwise to Min). Make sure power is Off.
2
Rotate the Mode knobs to select a preset as appropriate (if you’re not sure, leave it at Normal). For more information, see
“Modes for Speaker Presets” on page 11.
3
Connect an XLR or 1/4-inch TRS cable from the output of your mixer or other device to the Input on the back of the first GSR
speaker. Make sure the Mic/Line button is set to the correct position on the first GSR speaker in each chain, depending on whether
you’re connecting a microphone (Mic) or line level source such as a mixer (Line).
4
Using an XLR cable, connect the Thru output on the first GSR to the Input on the next speaker. Make sure to set the Mic/Line
button to Line on this and any other GSR speakers in the chain.
5
Turn the speakers on using their Power switches.
6
Speak into the mic or raise the mixer output level while you slowly raise the speaker Level knob. Don’t point the microphone
into the front of the GSR speakers in order to avoid feedback.
7
If desired, press the HPF 75Hz button to engage the high-pass filter. This can eliminate any rumble or similar low-end noise that
might enter the signal. (We also recommend engaging the high-pass filter when the GSR speakers are being used as floor moni-
tors.)
Guidelines
Maximum Number of GSR Speakers
Never daisy-chain more than three (3) total GSR speakers together per channel.
Stacking
If using the GSR18 sub, you can raise one GSR speaker above it using a speaker pole (not included). Do not stack other speakers
directly on the GSR18 sub, as vibrations may cause it to fall off.
