FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
QUESTION ANSWER
Can any gooseneck microphone work
with this system?
Yes. The Chairman and Delegate base has a 3-pin XLR input for a
gooseneck microphone.
How long of an XLR cable can I use? We suggest not exceeding 100+ ft.
Can I use the system without the
AN-100CM+/AN-100CMU2+?
No. The system does require the use of the AN-100CM+/AN-
100CMU2+ to power the microphone base and microphone.
However, you can add an additional speaker for larger audiences
using the XLR or 1/4" output.
Is the Line Out post-fader or pre-fader?
In this particular model, the Line Out is pre-fader. This allows you
to use a recording devices or house system without worrying about
the volume of the AN-100CM+/AN-100CMU2+ speaker monitor.
Is there a storage case for the
Councilman?
Yes! Anchor Audio offers a rolling hard case to protect and transport
your system. It is called the HC-ARMOR24-CM.
