Using the above diagram chart as reference, connect monitors to amplifier. Maximum input 

to each monitor cannot exceed 150W

).

2

Set attenuator on all monitors to 0 dB.

3

Do a sound check to set volume to desired level.

4

Use attenuator to lower volume on monitors that do not need to be as loud, or have 

problems with feedback.

NOTE:

 

When an amplifier channel is used for driving only monitors with attenuators, it is best to 

have at least one of them set to 0dB.   If this cannot be achieved, set attenuator on the 
monitor that needs to be loudest to 0 dB and adjust level on power amp input to make this 
monitor the correct volume.  Attenuate only monitors that do not need to be as loud.

NOTE:

 

It is more efficient to use a two channel amplifier in combined/4 ohm mode with monitor impedance 

set to 8 ohms, than in bridge/8 ohm and set to 16.
