INPUTS
A good cable run improves the sound quality remarkably. Input cables should be short and direct, since high
frequencies will be mostly be absorbed if the cables are unnecessarily long. Besides that a longer cable may
lead to humming and noise trouble. If long cable runs are unavoidable, you should use balanced cables.
The inputs of your OMNITRONIC CL-166 are equipped with XLR and ¼“ jack-sockets.
OUTPUTS
The high damping factor of your compressor supplies a clear sound reproduction. Unnecessarily long and
thin cables will influence the damping factor and thus the low frequencies in a negative way. In order to
safeguard good sound quality, the damping factor should lie around 50.
The outputs of your OMNITRONIC CL-166 are equipped with 6.3 mm jacks and XLR connectors.
