Loudspeaker Placement and Mounting
The following guidelines will help you achieve optimum sound wherever you use your PPHP1594 PPHP1595 loudspeakers:
Raise the speakers as high as possible. For best results try to get the high frequency horn at least 2 to 4 feet above the
heads of the audience. If the speakers are too low, the people in the back of the audience will not receive the best quality
of sound.
Place the speakers between the microphones and the audience. Feedback occurs when the microphones pick up sound
from the speakers and "feed" the sound back through the sound system. If space is limited, point the speakers away
from the microphones to reduce feedback.
Locate the speakers away from turntables. Low-frequency feedback occurs when the output of the speaker is picked up
by the tone arm of the turntable and is re-amplified. A heavy, solid turntable base and shock mounting can also reduce
this type of feedback in DJ applications.
Use more speakers in large or highly reverberant spaces. Spreading speakers throughout these spaces will produce
much better sound than trying to compensate with loudness level or equalization. For very long distances, the use of
another set of speakers on a delay is recommended.
Stand speakers upright for PA-Tilt the speakers back for stage monitoring. Upright stance Provides even Coverage over

TROUBLESHOOTING
TROUBLESHOOTING
Symptom
No sound
NO sound. Speaker comes on.
Signal sounds distorted and very
loud.
Signal sounds distorted even at
moderate volumes.
Noise or hiss heard at output
Likely Cause
Speaker not connected to
amplifier
Speaker cable is faulty or
improperly connected.
Signal source(mixer, instrument,
etc.) Is not sending a signal.
Faulty cables and connections
Excessive input signal, trying to
exceed the capabilities of the
speakers
Mixer or other source is
overdriven
Noisy source device
What to do
Verify that speaker is connectedand that
the amp is on
Re-seat the cable at both ends.
Substitute a known-good cable
Check VU meters on the source mixer
Verify that the tape or CD is playing.
Use headphones to verify that the
instrument is actually sending an
audio signal
Disconnect and re-seat signal cables.
Replace suspected cable with a
known-good cable
Turn down the level controls on the
amplifier.
Use additional speakers.
Review the Owner's Manual for your
mixer and adjust controls as needed.
Input sensitivity (gain)
Channel faders
Master faders
Disconnect the devices that are connected
to your speaker one at a time. If the noise
goes away, the problem is with the source
or the connecting cable.
Speakers feed back and howl when
the microphone volume is turned up
Microphones are pointed into the
speakers
Equalizer settings art incorrect
Excessive gain
3
Move the speakers so they do not point
the microphone's pickup pattern.
Locate the feedback frequency and reduce
it using an equalizer.
Reduce the gain at the mixer and move the
microphone closer to the sound source.
