parameters is noted here.
2. SERIAL NUMBER FIELD. Sticker with the systems serial
number is located here. NEVER REMOVE THE SERIAL FROM
THE SYSTEM, AS IT IS IMMEDIATE WARRANTY VOID.
3. 8-PIN PARALLEL INPUTS. The pair of parallel Neutrik®
Speakon NL8MPR connectors. Use these connectors to
connect power amplifier and to feed the signal to the parallel
system (optional).
4. CONNECTION INFORMATION. Consult this section for
correct Speakon connector pins wiring.

HORNET SUB 18 low frequency array connection.
HORNET SUB 18’s parallel inputs are feeding signal
to transducers from pins +1 -1 and +2 -2. Signals
on pins +3 -3 and +4 -4 are linked through the
subwoofer, and can be received from pins +1 -1
and +2 -2 of the OUTPUT connector. This allows to
connect the HORNET SUB 18 cardiod arrays with
single 8-wire cable and interbetween 8-wire and
4-wire links only.
