Our standard cable for speaker hookups is the PH50. This cable features 1/4” plugs and 16 gauge copper wire. The PH50 is adequate for lengths up to 50’ under normal use. You can DAISY-CHAIN up to one additional speaker per cable by using the unused 1/4” OUTPUT” jack (right side) on your speaker jack plate. Be sure to note the total impedance to the amp so it is not lower than it’s recommended impedance. See Typical Loudspeaker Impedance Configurations.
For continuous high power applications, we suggest using our professional SPK25, SPK50 & SPK100 Speakon™ cables with lock-on connectors and heavy 4 conductor 12 gauge copper wire. These cables are to be connected in the same way as the PH50 with compatible amps.
PRECAUTIONS
1) DO NOT EXCEED THE POWER RATING marked on the rear connect plate. Excessive power will destroy drivers. 2) DISTORTION from power amps will destroy drivers much faster than clean power. 3) WATER, MOISTURE, and DUST are harmful to drivers causing failure which is not covered under warranty.
