; otherwise there is 

a risk of damaging the loudspeaker components. DP Series Loudspeaker Controller, PA Series 
amplifier and T-Series amplifier are ideal for this purpose. 
 
 

Ensure that the right preset was selected before connecting the loudspeaker with the 

amplifier.  
 
 

Operating with an incorrect preset can damage part of the loudspeaker. 

 
 

Ensure that the amplifier is properly size according  to requirements. Under-power or 

oversize power amplifier without the supervision of an expert may damage the loudspeaker. 
 
 

Please note the technical specification section.

MAXIMUM OF 4 ENCLOSURES PER PA4.1500 

 
1 x SW-118M can be connected to each output channel on the PA4.1500. Therefore, a 

single PA4.1500 amplifier controller can drive up to 4 enclosures.  

 
See the preset manual connect the reverse subwoofer to use the cardioid preset.
