Connections
Connect a line level signal to Line A input either via left+right RCA (3), 6.3mm jack or XLR (8).

If the combination of inputs A and B are to be fed onto further equipment or active speakers,
connect to these using the Mix Out connector (5) using a balanced XLR cable.
With the column fully assembled and making sure all parts are connected properly, connect
the rear panel IEC connector to a 230Vac mains outlet using the supplied IEC power lead.

The Quorus column array has a DSP (digital signal processing) circuit to control the response
of the speakers, which can be set to suit the type of application. 5 different voicings are

–
which can be selected by rotating the DSP voicing
selector (7) which steps through the voicings, confirmed by the DSP voicing indicators (1).
Select the required DSP setting according to the type of music or sound reproduction.
Smartphone Connection
The Quorus column array has a B/T pairing button, which enables pairing with a smart phone
when pressed. When the B/T Pairing LED is flashing, the Quorus is in pairing mode.

. Select to pair with this device and the Pairing LED should stay on constantly to
show that pairing is successful.
Playback of any audio from the paired smart phone or tablet will now be sent wirelessly to the
Quorus Line A input, governed by the Line A input volume control (9). Be aware that the
volume control on the sending device will also need to be turned up in order to hear the audio.
Before powering down the Quorus array, turn down both Line A input and Mic/Line B input to
avoid any loud pops when switching off.
