Active Speaker System
Operation of the speaker system is easy,
even for users without any expert knowl-
edge. However, please read these instruc-
tions carefully prior to operation and keep
them for later reference.

1 Applications

This 2-way speaker system with separate
power amplifiers for the high-frequency
range and the low-frequency range is
suited for versatile sound applications. The
robust plastic cabinet can be set up in
many different ways and the DSP (digital
signal processor) offers four selectable
presets for an optimum sound. An inte-
grated limiter will protect the speakers and
prevent signal distortion.
For special requirements concerning
low-bass reproduction, the speaker sys-
tems can be easily complemented by an
active subwoofer. The model PSUB-418AK
is ideally matched to the speaker series
PAK-400 and features the same cabinet
design.

4 Setting into Operation

4.1 Setting up the speaker system

Place the speaker system on a solid sur-
face and align it towards the audience.
Place the tweeters at ear level, if possible.
The bevelled design of the cabinet also
makes it possible to operate the speaker
system horizontally as a stage monitor
which will radiate the sound diagonally
upwards.
Alternatively, place the speaker system
via the stand sleeve on its lower side on a
standard speaker stand with a tube dia -
meter of 35 mm (e. g. from the PAST series
