Thank you for purchasing your new Stagg SMS Powered Speaker Cabinet.
Stagg SMS series powered speakers with integral mixer section are designed as multi purpose tools with output
powers ranging from true 90 to 220 Watts RMS, making them ideal as stand alone (mini) PA systems or as
part of larger amplication systems when connected to a mixing console, additional powered speaker(s) or
any other PA equipment.
Stagg SMS8P/10P/12P and 15P models are bi-amplied models featuring an electronic crossover and two
separate output power stages, one driving a powerful 8”, 10”, 12” or 15” Woofer to thoroughly reproduce
low and mid end frequencies, the second one linked to a compression horn tweeter for accurate high end
frequencies reproduction.
Stagg SMS12PLCD and 15PLCD models are active speaker cabinets equipped with one mono, large band,
power amplier combined to a passive cross-over that splits the audio signal range in two separate ways: one
to the 12” or 15” Woofer for the low and medium frequencies, the other one to the compression horn tweeter
for the high frequencies.
SMS12/ 15PLCD models also come with a built-in MP3 player section including USB and SD card inputs, LC
Display, front selectable push switches and remote control.
Each Stagg SMS series powered speaker features a sturdy compression horn tweeter with wide Titanium
diaphragm (1), a rugged, woofer with heavy Ferrite magnet and large voice coil, protected by a resistant, metallic
grille (2), all housed in a heavy-duty ABS nylon bre cabinet with built-in pole mount socket (4) with locking
screw (8) for use with a tripod-style stand, rubber feet (3) on the bottom for portable applications, corresponding
stacking notches (5) for stacking purposes and rigging points (6) on the top, bottom, and rear of the cabinet for
permanent and ight installations, and integral, ergonomic carrying handle (7) for easy transportation.

MIC CHANNEL
1. JACK INPUT – This high impedance, ¼” stereo jack socket accepts unbalanced vocal microphones or
passive instruments with high impedance transducers or pick ups, such as electric or electro-acoustic (bass)
guitar, electric violin, electric double bass etc. We recommend the use of a high-quality shielded guitar cable to
prevent any background noise interference or unwanted feedback.
2. XLR INPUT– This low impedance, balanced XLR socket is designed to connect a low impedance dynamic
microphone. This can be a vocal mic for a singer or a speaker, or alternatively an instrument mic to amplify an
all-acoustic instrument that does not feature an onboard preamp system. You may also use this input to plug
in an electro-acoustic instrument with a balanced output signal. Wiring of the 3-pin connector is: Pin 1= Shield;
Pin 2 = Positive (Hot); Pin 3 = Negative (Cold).
3. (Mic) LEVEL – This control determines the output level for both Jack and XLR inputs of the MIC channel.
4. (Jack In), 5. (XLR In), 6. (Mic Level) – Only the SMS15P model features a second, identical MIC channel
to connect more microphones or instruments as described in paragraphs 1., 2. & 3.
LINE CHANNEL
7. (L + R) INPUTS – This line level, RCA/ Phono (RCA/ Cinch) sockets are provided for connecting stereo audio
sources such as: CD/MP3/ Tape players, or musical instruments with line level outputs, i.e: rhythm machines,
samplers, electronic keyboards, synthesizers etc. Left and Right inputs are linked together for monophonic use.
8. XLR INPUT – This line level, balanced XLR connector is designed to only accept signals from line level
equipment with balanced output such as a tape machine, a mixing console, or another (Stagg SMS) Powered
Speaker Cabinet. When the distance between the external audio device and the powered speaker cabinet
exceeds 15 feet, a balanced cable should preferably be used to minimise signal loss. Wiring of the 3-pin
connector is: Pin 1= Shield; Pin 2 = Positive (Hot); Pin 3 = Negative (Cold).
9. (Line) LEVEL – This control adjusts the output level for both Jack and XLR inputs of the LINE channel.
OUTPUT SECTION
10. JACK OUT - This ¼” stereo jack socket features a line level, pre EQ, balanced output to connect the unit
to a sound mixer, an additional (Stagg SMS) Powered Speaker Cabinet or any other (mini) Power Amplication
System.
11. XLR OUT – This low impedance, XLR connector drives a pre EQ, balanced output signal for connecting
directly to one of the balanced microphone inputs on a mixing console, either in studio or stage applications.
12. (Output) LEVEL - This control adjusts the general output level of the powered speaker, before equalization.
EQUALIZER SECTION
13. TREBLE - This ± 12 dB gain control determines the amount of high frequencies in the output signal.
Turning the knob clockwise will boost the high frequencies while turning it anticlockwise will cut the high
frequencies of the original output signal.
14. BASS - This ± 12 dB gain control determines the amount of low frequencies in the output signal. Turning
the knob clockwise will boost the low frequencies while turning it anticlockwise will cut the low frequencies of
the original output signal.
15. CLIP LED - This red LED begins to ash when the signal to the output power stage(s) becomes too loud.
When permanently lit up, it indicates distortion that could be harmful for the speakers. This means that one or
more of the Mic, Line, or Overall levels is set too high and should be at once re-adjusted until the led ashes
again or shuts off.
MAINS SECTION
16. POWER SWITCH - This switch turns the amplied speaker on or off.
17. POWER LED - When this green LED is lit, the device is powered and ready to work. When it is off, it means
the amplier is switched off.
18. AC LINE SELECT - All SMS powered speakers (except the SMS12PLCD) are tted with a switch enabling
the unit to work on two different AC mains outlets: either 110-120VAC or 220-240VAC, as appropriate. Access
to the selector is done by unscrewing the safety cover. Please mind the switch is set on the right AC Voltage
position: either 115VAC or 230VAC, before powering up the unit.
19. POWER FUSE - In the event of the power fuse having to be replaced, rst unplug the power cable from
the mains outlet. Then remove the fuse cover and replace the power fuse with one of the same type and value.
Never plug the power cable back into the mains outlet without the fuse cover. When powering on the amplier,
if the power fuse blows up again, go to a suitable service centre for repair.
20. AC (MAINS) INPUT - This is the input socket into which the moulded mains power cable must be
connected. If the socket outlets available are not suitable for the plug supplied with this equipment, use an
appropriate plug adapter that can handle the power required for this powered speaker.
