AH210
ALL-IN-ONE AUDIO SOLUTION
Welcome
Dear Player,
Thank you very much for purchasing your new Laney product and becoming part of the worldwide Laney
family. Each and every Laney unit is designed and built with the utmost attention to care and detail, so I
trust yours will give you many years of enjoyment.
Laney products have a heritage which stretches back to 1967 when I first began building valve amplifiers in
my parent’s garage.
Since then we have moved on from strength to strength developing an extensive range of guitar, bass,
public address, multi instrument and keyboard amplification products along with a list of Laney endorsees
that includes some of the world’s most famous and respected musicians.
At the same time we believe we have not lost sight of the reason Laney was founded in the first place - a
dedication to building great sounding amplification for working musicians.
Warm Regards,
Lyndon Laney Chairman & Founder

Important Safety Instructions
WARNING: When using electrical products, basic cautions should always be followed, including the following:
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions safe.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.
7. Do not block any of the ventilation openings. Install in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. An apparatus with Class I construction shall be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective connection. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or
third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories provided by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the
cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. The mains plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device and shall remain readily operable. The user should allow easy access to any mains plug, mains
coupler and mains switch used in conjunction with this unit thus making it readily operable. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long
periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as when power-supply cord or plug is
damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been
dropped.
15. Never break off the ground pin. Connect only to a power supply of the type marked on the unit adjacent to the power supply cord.
16. If this product is to be mounted in an equipment rack, rear support should be provided.
17. Note for UK only: If the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this unit do not correspond with the terminals in your plug‚ proceed as follows:
a) The wire that is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal that is marked by the letter E‚ the earth symbol‚ coloured green or
coloured green and yellow.
b) The wire that is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter N or the colour black.
c) The wire that is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal that is marked with the letter L or the colour red.
18.This electrical apparatus should not be exposed to dripping or splashing and care should be taken not to place objects
containing liquids, such as vases, upon the apparatus.
19. Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility
to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient
time.
The U.S. Government’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the following permissible noise
level exposures: According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of the above permissible limits could result in some hearing loss.
Earplugs or protectors to the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when operating this amplification system in order to
prevent a permanent hearing loss, if exposure is in excess of the limits as set forth above. To ensure against potentially
dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of
producing high sound pressure levels such as this amplification system be protected by hearing protectors while this unit is in
operation.
3
After unpacking your amplifier check that it is factory fitted with a
three pin 'grounded' (or earthed) plug. Before plugging into the
power supply ensure you are connecting to a grounded earth outlet.
If you should wish to change the factory fitted plug yourself, ensure
that the wiring convention applicable to the country where the
amplifier is to be used is strictly conformed to. As an example in the
United Kingdom the cable colour code for connections are as
follows.
NOTE
This manual has been written for easy access of information. The
control panel is graphically illustrated, with each control and feature
numbered. For a description of the function of each control feature,
simply check the number with the explanations adjacent to each
panel.Your AudioHub P.A. has undergone a thorough two stage, predelivery inspection, involving actual play testing.
When you first receive your new AudioHub, follow these simple
procedures:
(i) Ensure that the amplifier is the correct voltage for the country it is
to be used in.
(ii) Connect your instrument with a high quality shielded instrument
cable - don’t use poor quality cable as it won’t do your gear justice.
Please retain your original carton and packaging so in the unlikely
event that some time in the future your amplifier should require
servicing you will be able to return it to your dealer securely packed.

If you want to apply Echo to a mono channel, first set the Master control to 5. Slowly increase
the Input Echo send control until the desired amount of echo is achieved. The Master control
can then be used to control the overall Echo level.
16. MEDIA PLAYER LEVEL: Controls the overall level of music from the onboard media player. See media player controls 23-30.
17. MONITOR OUTPUTS: A convenient way of connecting your AH210 AudioHub to another device such as an additional amp/speaker setup, recording device or
possibly both at the same time via the jack and RCA connectors or 6.35mm jacks. You can also monitor this signal feed via headphones.
18. MONITOR LEVEL: Control the MONITOR OUTPUT and headphone level.
19: HEADPHONES: Connect your headphones here. The volume can be adjusted using level control (18).
20. OUTPUT LEVEL METER: Use this to give an idea of the overall output level of your AH210 AudioHub system. If the LIMIT led is constantly on, reduce the MASTER

Dimensions and mounting
All cabinets should be balanced and steady.
Don't over-extend poles/tripods; ensure at least 4 x the pole diameter
is still inside the outer pole.
Make sure the legs have a good splay on tripods, but do not obstruct
doorways or other access-ways.
If a pole mount is used, make sure that the thumb screw on the cabinet
is tight.
Keep lights away from speakers; heat can cause fires/speaker damage.
Don't run cables across access-ways; if you have to, run them above
doors or use approved cable covers.
Be aware of total power usage. Overloading a mains socket is
potentially dangerous, and likely to cause a power out during use.
Keep lighting cables away from ALL sound cables including mains, use
separate circuit for lights if possible.
Keep power and signal cables apart.
