parallel, which allows you to daisy chain additional speakers. Thus you can 

use one amplifier channel to power multiple speakers. 

Make certain that the wires you are using are at least 12 gauge 

unshielded speaker cable (the lower the number, the thicker the wire). Do 

not use shielded “instrument” cables. 

     Hooking speakers up in parallel decreases the overall 

impedance, placing a greater load on the amplifier. Check your 

amplifier’s specifications to ensure that you are not overloading 

the channel. 

 

CAUTION: DO NOT USE MORE THAN ONE JACK AS AN   

AMPLIFIER INPUT. DOING SO WILL DAMAGE THE SPEAKER!

 

 

 

 

Amplifier Requirements 

 

 

Check the product specifications (page 5) to see the power handling 

for your model. There are a couple of considerations to keep in mind when 

choosing an amplifier to drive your PASC series speaker. While it is true 

that an amplifier with a higher power rating can damage the drivers, under-

powering can be even more dangerous. When an amplifier is overdriven and 

starts distorting, it generates transient frequencies that are much louder than 

the program material. These wayward frequencies could damage your 

speaker. A proper match is an amplifier which could drive the speaker up to 

the cabinet’s RMS rating, without exceeding the amplifier’s own RMS level.  

 

Operation 

 

When powering on your equipment, make sure the volume level on 

the amplifier is turned all the way down. This is to avoid the “popping” 

noise, which could damage your speaker. 

The placement of speakers can be a bit tricky. This is especially true 

to monitors as they are more susceptible to feedback. Being that a monitor is 

meant to face the performers, the chances of feedback are much greater. The 

trick is to place the monitor outside the microphone’s pickup pattern. For 

most microphones the best position is directly behind the mic. Supercardioid 

mics however, do not reject sound from the back very well, but do have a
