Connection
Connecting speakers
Using speaker cables, connect each speaker to the
SPEAKERS A jack and to the B jack in the
SPEAKERS jack section on the rear panel of the
EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12.
• In the example shown by the above diagram, two
main speakers are connected (one each to left and
right) in stereo. For other connection examples,
refer to pages 20–21.
• You may connect to either of the two jacks on the
speakers.
• Be sure to use a cable designed for speaker connec-
tion.
• Speakers with a Speakon connector can also be con-
nected using a Speakon cable. In this case, use the
SPEAKERS 1 jacks to output the signal from the
EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12.
• When connecting a Speakon connector to the
EMX5000-20/EMX5000-12, be sure to turn the plug to
the right to lock the connection after inserting the plug.
Never connect the speakers in the manner shown
below. Otherwise, the EMX5000-20/EMX5000-
12’s built-in power amplifier will be damaged.
Setting the power amplifier mode
Set the power amp select switch (located on the
right corner on the panel) to ST L-R.
• This quick guide explains how to connect one main
speaker each to left and right for stereo operation. If
the power amp select switch is set to the ST L-R
position as shown here, the stereo R signal will be
output from the SPEAKERS A jacks, and the stereo
L signal from the SPEAKERS B jacks.
Refer to pages 14, 19, 20 for other connections and
power amp select switch settings.
