INTRODUCTION
Thank you for y our purchase of the PS16 Personal Monitor Power Center.
The PS16 supplies the DC power and distributes the Monitor signal to up
to ten of the PM50s, the PM50sOB, and the PM350 units. This dramatically increases efficiency and eliminates the need for multiple wall-w arts
and adapter cables.
The power AND monitor signal are carried from each PS16 output using
an ordinary 1/4" stereo cable to the Monitor input of the PM50s, sOB, and
350. Using stereo “Y” adapters, up to ten of the Personal Monitor Amplifi-
ers may be daisy-chained.
NOTE: Older PM50s and PM50sOB units may need
a slight modification in order to operate with the
PS16. Any PM50s or PM50sOB WITHOUT a
ground lift jumper and mono/stereo jumper will need
this modification. Call the factory at (801) 263-9053
for details.
