3. The wire which is coloured brown must be con-
GB
nected to the terminal which is marked with the let-
ter L or coloured red.
Warning – This appliance must be earthed.
If the unit is to be put out of operation defini-
tively, take it to a local recycling plant for a
disposal which will not be harmful to the envi-
ronment.
3 Applications
PAK-110MK2, PAK-112MK2 and PAK-115MK2 are
powerful active speaker systems in robust plastic cab-
inets. They are suited for versatile applications, e. g.
for dances, for small stages or as monitor speakers for
bands.
A line signal can be fed in via the balanced XLR jack
or, in an unbalanced way, via the phono jacks. In addi-
tion, the speaker systems are equipped with a micro-
phone input (PAK-115MK2 with two microphone
inputs). The signal of this input can be added to the line
signal. The signal output will allow connection of
another active speaker system.
The integrated limiter will protect the speakers from
excessive signal levels.
4 Setting Up and Connecting
Set up the speaker system on a solid surface, e. g. on
the stage or on a table and position it towards the audi-
ence. The tweeters should be at ear level, if possible.
If a microphone is used, do not position the speaker
towards the microphone and keep a sufficient distance
to the microphone; otherwise acoustic feedback (loud
howling) may occur.
Alternatively, place the speaker system via the
stand sleeve on its lower side onto a standard speaker
stand with a 35 mm tube diameter (e. g. PAST series
from "img Stage Line"). After positioning the speaker
system, fasten the screw (18).
For additional mounting options, the cabinet is pro-
vided with three M8 threaded inserts (two on its upper
side, one on its lower side).
When positioning the speaker system, always
make sure that air will flow freely through the cooling
fins (6) on the rear side to provide sufficient cooling.
4.1 Connecting a signal source
For connecting a signal source with line level (e. g. CD
player, output of a mixer), the following options will be
possible:
– For balanced signals, the XLR jack (4) is suitable
(pin configuration
– For unbalanced signals, the phono jacks (3) are
suitable. When both phono jacks or the phono jacks
and the XLR jack (4) are used at the same time, the
input signals will be mixed. This will create a mono
signal when a stereo signal source is connected.

chapter 6).
It will be possible to connect a microphone to the XLR
jack or the 6.3 mm jack MIC [1] IN (1). Both jacks are
designed for balanced signals. Via a two-pole 6.3 mm
plug, it will be possible to connect a microphone with
unbalanced output signal to the 6.3 mm jack.
With the jacks MIC 2 IN (2), model PAK-115MK2
offers an additional connection for a microphone.
4.2 Signal output
At the XLR jack and the 6.3 mm jack LINE OUT [con-
nected in parallel] (5), the mixed signal of the input sig-
nals for routing to another active speaker system, an
amplifier or a recorder will be available as a balanced
signal with line level. The output signal will be inde-
pendent of the adjustment of the overall volume con-
trol MASTER LEVEL (10).
4.3 Power supply
Connect the mains cable provided to the mains jack
(16) and the plug to a mains socket (230 V~/50 Hz).
5 Operation
CAUTION Never adjust the active speaker system
to a very high volume. Permanent high
volumes may damage your hearing!
The human ear will get accustomed to
high volumes which do not seem to be
that high after some time. Therefore, do
not further increase a high volume after
getting used to it.
Note: To prevent switching noise, always switch on the
active speaker system after the signal sources
connected and switch it off first after use.
1) Set the control MASTER LEVEL (10) to minimum
(left stop) for the time being and switch on the
amplifier with the POWER switch (15). The LED ON
(14) will light up.
The following operating steps merely serve as an aid;
you may also proceed differently.
2) As a basic adjustment, for the time being, set the
LEVEL controls (7 – 9) to minimum (left stop) and
the tone controls (11, 12) to mid-position.
3) Adjust the overall volume with the control MASTER
LEVEL (10). Turn up the control to approximately
mid-position so that the subsequent adjustments
will be audible.
4) If a signal source is connected to the input LINE IN
(3, 4), turn up the corresponding LEVEL control (9)
to such an extent that the sound reproduced will not
be distorted yet.
5) If a microphone is connected, add its signal with the
control LEVEL (7) or (8) [for model PAK-115MK2
only] and, if necessary, reduce the level of the line
signal with the LEVEL control (9).
