CONNECTIONS
1 - Connect the speaker cable securely to your IMPACT-X cabinet and power amplifier. The
amplifier should be in the OFF, POWER DOWN mode. Where possible use the speakON
compatible connectors as they are professional high current connectors specifically designed for
high power audio applications. Use the correct type of speaker cable according to the handling
capacity of your IMPACT-X loudspeaker. Use 2 conductors equal stranded insulated cable for
speaker runs. It is always advisable to use heavier cabling for longer cable runs.
2 - If using the speakON input of the combi connector, insert the speakON cable and rotate 1/8 of
a turn until locked in/ If using the jack plug input of the connector, insert it until secure.
3 - Power up your amplifier with levels set to zero. Carefully turn up amplifier volumes to confirm
that the connections are working.
