22. The use of apparatus is in tropical and/or moderate climates.
23. NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 5 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation
of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference
in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his
own expense.

ATTENTION
— Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits
radioélectriques dépassant las limites applicables aux appareils
numériques de class A/de class B (selon le cas) prescrites dans
le réglement sur le brouillage radioélectrique édicté par les ministere

25. Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hearing loss.
Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss,
but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to suciently intense
noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the permissible noise level
exposures shown in the following chart.
According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits
could result in some hearing loss. 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
use hearing protectors while the equipment is in operation. Ear plugs or
protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when operating
the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if exposure is in
excess of the limits set forth here:

How to Use This Manual:
Afer this introduction, a getting started guide will help
you get things set up fast. The hookup diagrams show some
typical DRM loudspeaker setups, including some that involve
DRM Professional Powered Loudspeaker Series
the DRM8S subwoofer.
This icon marks information that is critically
important or unique! For your own good, read and
remember them...it is a good idea to pay special
attention to these areas in the Owner’s Manual
marked with the “VERY IMPORTANT” hand icon.
The following steps will help you set up the loudspeakers
quickly.
. Make all initial connections with the power switches OFF
on all equipment. Make sure the master volume, level and gain
controls are all the way down.
2. If not using a subwoofer, connect the outputs from
the mixing console (or other signal source) to the inputs
on the rear panel of the loudspeakers.
3. If using a subwoofer, connect the outputs from
the mixing console (or other signal source) to the inputs
on the subwoofer, then connect the high pass outputs
from the subwoofer to the inputs of the loudspeakers.
4. Push the line cord securely into the subwoofer’s /
loudspeaker’s IEC connectors and plug the other ends into
grounded AC outlets. The subwoofer/loudspeaker may accept
the appropriate voltage as indicated near the IEC connector.
5. Turn the mixer (or other signal source) on.
6. Turn the subwoofer on (if applicable).
7. Turn the loudspeakers on.
8. Make sure the loudspeaker’s channel levels are set
to (or near) 0 dB.
9. Start the signal source and raise the mixer’s main L/R
fader up to a comfortably loud listening level.
There’s an illustration of a microscope,
so, of course, you’re going to get more
detailed information when you see this little
guy. There are explanations of features
and practical tips listed here.
It’s a good idea to pay attention to text displayed
next to a note icon, as this icon draws attention
to certain features and functions relating to the
usage of the DRM Series.
Please write the serial numbers here for future reference
(i.e., insurance claims, tech support, return authorization,
make dad proud, etc.)

Things to Remember:
• Never listen to loud music for prolonged periods. Please see
the Safety Instructions on page 2 for information on hearing
protection.
• As a general guide, the mixer (or other signal source) should
be turned on first, subwoofers next, and DRM loudspeakers
last. As such, the DRM loudspeakers should also be turned
o first, followed by the subwoofers, then the mixer. This will
reduce the possibility of any turn-on or turn-o thumps
and other noises generated by any upstream equipment
from coming out of the speakers.
• Save the shipping boxes and packing materials! You may
need them someday. Besides, the cats will love playing
in them and jumping out at you unexpectedly. Remember
to pretend like you are surprised!
• Save your sales receipt in a safe place.

DRM loudspeakers are the perfect tool for singer-songwriters touring the local coee shops. Bring your favorite axe
and mic, DRM loudspeakers and cables and power cords.
In this example, a dynamic microphone is connected to the channel input of a DRM22 loudspeaker, used for monitoring
purposes.
Now grab your axe and plug it directly into the channel 2 input. Or if you use eects, connect the guitar to the eects input
and another cable from the eects output to the channel 2 input.
A DRM25 loudspeaker will be used for the main PA. Simply connect a cable from the DRM22 monitor’s MIX OUT jack
to the DRM25 PA’s channel input.
For the output, you will want to set a speaker mode, described in detail on page 2. For this type of setup, Live works well
for the main DRM25. Select the Monitor mode for the DRM22 monitor. Additionally, you will want to set the monitor’s
configuration > channel 2 input to Hi-Z to account for the guitar.

In this example, a ProFX8v2 mixer is connected directly to two DRM25 loudspeakers. It is the perfect setup for a small
club or... a fun karaoke house party! Simply connect the L/R outputs of the ProFX8v2 mixer to the CH input of each
DRM25 loudspeaker. Don’t forget to set the Speaker Mode on both loudspeakers to Live... or Club if you want a little
more low-end thump!

If you desire a little more boom, add a DRM8S subwoofer to the mix. Here, the L/R outputs of a ProFX8v2 mixer are
connected directly to the CH and CH2 inputs of the DRM8S subwoofer. Then the High-Pass Outs of the subwoofer
are connected to the channel inputs of a pair of DRM25 loudspeakers. Here you will want to set the Speaker Mode
to either Live or Club and the Subwoofer HPF to DRM Sub (or Var if using a dierent subwoofer). If using a DRM18S,
change its X-Over to DRM Top for a perfectly matched set!

Perhaps you’re a DJ playing bumpin’ tunes in the middle of the night to a crowd that’s groovin’ and dancin’
to your fine selection.
In this example, a laptop is connected to the inputs of two DRM8S subwoofers with the X-Over set to DRM Top.
The High-Pass Out of each subwoofer is then connected to the input of each DRM22 loudspeaker.
Additionally, a set of Mackie MC-250 headphones is connected to the phones jack of the laptop.

DRM loudspeakers may be daisy-chained via the male XLR connector labeled “DIRECT OUT” (which sends only
the signal from the input located above it) or via the “MIX OUT” which outputs all inputs. Simply plug the signal
source (i.e., mixer output or microphone) into the input jack(s), and patch that loudspeaker’s direct out or mix
out jack to the next loudspeaker’s input jack, and so on, daisy-chaining multiple DRM loudspeakers. See above
for visual representations of daisy-chaining.

Here’s how to set up a large club system. In this example, the L/R outputs of a DL6S mixer are connected directly
to the CH inputs of a pair of DRM8S subwoofers. The Direct Out of each subwoofer is then connected to the inputs
of an additional pair of DRM8S subwoofers. The X-Over of these subwoofers may be set to DRM Top.
From here, the high-pass outputs of the two outer DRM8S subwoofers are connected directly to the inputs of a set
of DRM35 loudspeakers. The Speaker Modes of these PA loudspeakers may be set to Live (or Club) and the Subwoofer
HPF set to DRM Sub. Talk about beefy low end!
Outputs and 2 from the mixer may be used as aux sends; these are connected directly to the CH inputs of a pair of DRM22
loudspeakers to be used as monitors for the band. The Speaker Modes of the monitor loudspeakers may be set to Monitor.
