Follow the Quick Start guide on page 6

for setting the 

LEVEL

 control. For most ap-

plications, it will be in the 

NORMAL

position (12 o’clock) . If you have a particu-
larly high line-level signal connected to the
SRM350, you may need to turn the control
down to the 9 o’clock position. If you have
a low line-level or mic-level signal con-
nected, you may need to turn the 

LEVEL

control up to the 3 o’clock position.

MIC/LINE Switch

Leave this switch out when connecting a

line-level signal to the 

INPUT

 connector

(from a mixer, graphic EQ, or other line-
level signal source).

Push this switch in when connecting a

microphone to the 

INPUT

 connector. Since

a microphone produces a much smaller sig-
nal than a line-level signal, this provides an
additional 40 dB of gain to boost the micro-
phone signal to a line level.

SIGNAL Indicator

This LED illuminates whenever there is

a signal present at the 

INPUT

 connector on

the rear panel. It senses the signal just after
the 

LEVEL

 control, so if the 

LEVEL 

control

is turned down, the 

SIGNAL

 indicator

won’t light.

LIMIT Indicator

When the signal levels at the amplifier

outputs approach clipping, a soft limiting
circuit is activated that reduces the input
signal. The 

LIMIT

 LED lights whenever the

limit circuit is active.

It’s okay for the 

LIMIT

 indicator to blink

occasionally, but if it blinks frequently or
continuously, either turn down the signal
level at the mixer or other signal source, or
turn down the SRM350’s 

LEVEL

 control.

Wear hearing protection if
you are close to the
SRM350 playing at high
levels.

INPUT Connector

This is a combination female XLR-type

and 1/4˝ TRS connector that accepts a bal-
anced or unbalanced mic- or line-level signal.

THRU Connector

This is a male XLR-type connector that

can be used to daisy-chain the input signal
to another speaker.

The signal at this point is after the 

MIC/

LINE

 switch but before the 

LEVEL

 control.

If you have a microphone connected to the
first SRM350 and you have the 

MIC/LINE

switch pushed in, the signal at the 

THRU

jack is boosted 40 dB to a line-level, so leave
the 

MIC/LINE

 switch out on the next

SRM350.
