4.1 Tips on handling speakers
We recommend you to set up the speakers in a way, that the sound signals can reach the audi‐
ence unobstructedly. It will often be helpful to mount the speakers on tripods. Thus, the sound
will be evenly spread with maximum range throughout the audience area.
Always use high grade cable to connect your equipment. Otherwise you won't reach max‐
imum sound quality.
For optimum results both impedance and power handling of the speakers must match the
requirements of the amplifier. Always follow the technical specifications of the speakers! The
overall impedance of the connected loudspeakers must not deceed the minimum output
impedance of the amp. The amps max. RMS output power should be 50 % above the power
handling capacity of the connected speakers.
If you notice distortion during operation, either the amp or the speaker is overloaded. This may
permanently damage the amp or the speaker. Always reduce the volume when you hear dis‐
tortion.
