manual thoroughly before using the unit.

1. INSPeCTION

Your NADY AUDIO PSS-150 Portable Sound System was 
carefully packed at the factory in packaging designed to protect 
the units in shipment. Before installing and using your unit, 
carefully examine the packaging and all contents for any signs of 
physical damage that may have occurred in transit.

[Please note: Nady Systems is not responsible for shipping

2. SeTUP

After transporting the PSS-150 to the desired location, lay the unit 
down on its flat side. Unclasp the side panel latches by pulling 
up on the yellow tab to release and unhook the latch. Carefully 
lift off the speakers and then remove the speaker stands and 
accessories from inside the unit.

Mixer Section

Position the PSS-150 mixer section on its flat surface with the 
control panel facing up. Parts of the unit can become very warm 
during use. This is normal during operation. Care should be taken 
to ensure that there is enough space behind the Mixer Section for 
cooling. Also, do not place the Portable Sound System on high 
temperature devices such as power amplifiers, etc., or the unit 
may overheat in operation.

Although the PSS-150 is shielded against radio frequency (�F) 
and electromagnetic interference (EMI), extremely high fields of 
�F and EMI should be avoided.

Please make sure that the power unit supplied is marked for the 
correct voltage in your area (120VAC/60 Hz or 230VAC/50 Hz). 
Power requirements for electrical equipment differ from area to 
area. In new installations and portable sound systems, or any 
situation in which the AC power is in question, it is wise to confirm 
the voltage and use the appropriate power supply unit before 
connecting it to power sources.

 










europe (except UK): 230V, 50Hz
UK and Australia: 240V, 50Hz
USA and Canada: 120V, 60 Hz

For other areas, please check with local authorities.

Speakers and Stands

Fully extend the speaker stand tripod legs and tighten the base 
thumbscrew. Extend the pole of the stand to the desired height 
and insert the safety pin completely through the stand hole above 
the pole thumbscrew. Lower the pole so that the pin rests on the 
holder and tighten the pole thumbscrew. 

Setup the stands on a flat surface where the speakers will be 
located and not disturbed. Place the speakers on the stands and 
position them as desired. Note: facing the speakers towards any 
of the microphones connected with the PSS-150 will increase the 
chance of feedback.

Connect the speaker cables to the input jacks on the lower left 
front panel of both the Left and �ight speakers. Connect the other 
end of each cable to the corresponding Left and �ight speaker 
outputs on the rear panel of the PSS-150 mixer section. Position 
the length of the cables so they will not be a safety hazard to 
people. 

WARNING:

 Connect only the supplied speakers to the PSS-150. 

Never connect additional speakers to the PSS-150. 

Inputs

Connect all sound sources to the appropriate inputs i.e., 
microphones, keyboards, CD players, karaoke machines. 
The supplied SP-1 Starpower™ microphone is an all-purpose 
professional stage and recording microphone with rugged metal 
construction and excellent clear, transparent sound across the 
spectrum. 

When ready to operate, plug the AC cord into the power source. 
Make sure that the unit is turned off before connecting to the AC 
power source to avoid possible loud transients which can damage 
your speakers or your ears. Before turning on, connect up the 
speakers and all inputs and outputs desired and turn down the 
Master Volume.
