The jacks are wired in 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. Being that this is a full range enclosure, it is important that the speaker be placed so that the high frequencies reach the intended listeners properly. Make certain that no person or object could come to interrupt the line-of-site between the loudspeaker and the audience. When using more than one loudspeaker, you have to account for phase alignment. When the speakers are close together this is not usually an issue. 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. 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. [. . . ] Listen with headphones to confirm the amplifier is being sent a good signal. Distorted Sound: Check if the amplifier is overdriven. If it is, you will have to turn the level down. [. . . ]
