LX-3™  Line Splitter User Guide

FAq
can I use the LX-3 with a microphone signal?

No, the LX-3 is designed for line-level signals, and will not provide optimal performance with a mic-level input. If you need to split 

the output of a microphone, the Radial JS2™ and JS3™ mic splitters are designed for this purpose. 

will the 48v from phantom power hurt the LX-3?

No, phantom power will not harm the LX-3. The transformer will block 48V at the isolated outputs, but the direct output will pass 

phantom power back through the input of the LX-3.  

can I use the LX-3 with unbalanced signals?

Absolutely. The LX-3 will automatically convert the signal to balanced audio at the isolated outputs. The direct output will mirror 

the input, and it will be unbalanced if the input is unbalanced. 

do I need power to drive the LX-3?

No, the LX-3 is completely passive, with no need for power. 

Will the LX-3 fit in a J-Rak?

Yes, the LX-3 can be mounted in the J-Rak 4 and the J-Rak 8, or secured to a desktop or road case using the J-Clamp. 

what is the maximum input level of the LX-3?

The LX-3 can 20dBu without engaging the input pad, and a huge +32dBu with the pad engaged.  

Can I use the LX-3 to split one signal to feed multiple powered speakers?

Yes, you can. This allows you to send a mono output from a mixing board to two or three speakers, for example.

Can I use the LX-3 to split the output of my guitar or keyboard?

Yes, although the StageBug SB-6™ might be a better option as it has ¼” connectors.
