PRODUCT OVERVIEW
COMPLETE PX SYSTEM
As a musician and/or singer, whether you’re performing live, rehearsing with a
band or recording in a studio, you need to hear both yourself and the other
musicians. But just as importantly, you need to have control over what you hear.
Everyone hears dierently from their own perspective, so everyone needs to
have control over their own mix.
Ideally, you’d have a monitor engineer—but in most situations it’s likely that you
or another band member are controlling the monitor mix from the stage. Or a
sound technician at the other end of the room has the control; but it’s hard to
communicate with them during a show. Instead of having a xed monitor mix
from the board, PX allows you to set up a simple three-channel monitor mix that
allows you to adjust the levels that matter to you the most—on the y. For
example, one knob could control your vocal level, one could control your
instrument level, and another could be a submix of other vocals and instruments.
With the PX system, control of that balance is always within reach, and always
adjusted perfectly to your liking!

WARNING
LISTENING TO AUDIO AT EXCESSIVE VOLUMES CAN CAUSE PERMANENT
HEARING DAMAGE. USE AS LOW A VOLUME AS POSSIBLE.
Overexposure to excessive sound levels can damage your ears, resulting in
permanent noise-induced hearing loss. Do not use earphones for a long time and
set the volume below 50%.
TROUBLESHOOTING
NO SOUND
• Check that the audio source is connected to PX-B and sending signal
• Check that the EC25 cable is connected to PX-A and PX-B
• Check that input 1, 2, and 3 volume controls on PX-A are not turned all the way down
• Check that the main volume knob / power switch is turned on
• Check that earphones/headphones are properly connected
• Check that left and right channel switches in the battery case are not all set to
the o position
NO POWER
• Check that the PX-A power switch (/volume knob) is turned on
• Check that the power mode switch is correctly set to PoE or AAA battery
• Check that the batteries have been installed correctly
• Check to make sure that the PoE power adapter used is 9V/2A DC center-negative
• Check that the EC25 cable is in working order and connected properly
Includes 3 balanced-XLR-to-¼”-unbalanced-TS adapters
DISTORTED AUDIO
• Check if the master volume is too high
• Check the levels going in and out of the PX-A mixer
• Verify that each signal is not distorted at the audio source
• Low batteries can cause distortion. Check batteries and replace if necessary.
LOW AUDIO LEVEL FROM THE PXA EARPHONE OUTPUT
• Check the PX-A master volume (earphone/headphone output) level
• Check CH1, CH2, CH3 volume levels
• Check output levels from audio sources (e.g. mixing console aux outs)
MULTIPLE CONNECTIONS WITH PXH
• The PX-B signal can be sent to up to ve PX-A units via the PX-H Hub, to be
heard simultaneously by up to ve people. You can also stack multiple PX-H
units to build a larger system for more than 5 people.

4. Set input 1, input 2 and input 3 volumes to 12 o’clock
6. Wearing earphones/headphones, turn on the power and slowly adjust
the PX-A master volume to the appropriate level. Then, adjust the
volume of each channel at the source/s (e.g. aux output levels on the
soundboard) to achieve a good starting mix. During performance,
adjust channel volumes and master volume on the PX-A as needed.
