User manual PYLE PLBL4UBK INSTALL GUIDE

[. . . ] The compression driver provides warm midrange reproduction and crystal clear highs. The integrated passive crossover network is assembled using quality components and efficiently directs the frequencies to the proper drivers. Your PASC series speaker has an extremely flexible connection panel. There are two Speakon jacks as well as two ¼" jacks. You can also hookup your speaker cabinet using the "Quick Connect" speaker terminals, which accommodate either wire leads or a banana plug. [. . . ] The jacks are wired in Connections 2 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 US E MORE THAN ONE JACK AS AN AMPLIFIER INPUT. DOING S O WILL DAMAGE THE S PEAKER! 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, underpowering can be even more dangerous. However, when they are far apart, the sound from one speaker may reach the ear a fraction of a second before the other. This will cause certain frequencies to cancel out, resulting in a hollow sound. To avoid this, you may have to use a delay processor to align the sound from the speakers. Maintenance and Safety · Do not expose the speaker to moisture. · Avoid hot and cold temperature extremes. Make sure that no moisture contacts the drivers. You can use a hand vacuum to clean the carpet. · Do not attempt to service the unit. Refer service to a certified Pyle Pro technician. · This loudspeaker is capable of producing extremely high SPL levels.

Use earplugs when necessary. 4 Troubleshooting No Sound: Check connections Try a different speaker cable Check levels on amplifier Confirm amplifier is getting a signal (check signal LED, or use headphone output) Intermittent Output: Check connections Try a different speaker cable Weak Bass: Check the polarity of the speaker connection. Listen with headphones to confirm the amplifier is being sent a good signal. [. . . ]
