1) MIC XLR INPUT
Plug a mic directly into this port for public address usage and let your voice be heard. (No phantom power)
2) BALANCED XLR LINE INPUT
This connection is designed to accept a balanced line input signal from a mixer or other line level device
with a balanced output jack. Use a balanced cable when the signal cable length exceeds 5 meters, this will
reduce excessive signal loss.
3) BALANCED RCA LINE INPUT
This connection is designed to accept a balanced line input signal from a mixer or other line level device with a
balanced output jack. Use a balanced cable when the signal cable length exceeds 5 meters, this will reduce exces-
sive signal loss. Be sure to connect only line level input devices such as mixers and tape machines to this jack.

DUETTO LIGHT 8A - Components and Features
4) XLR LINE OUTPUT
Using a XLR cable, use this port to daisy chain from your DUETTO LIGHT 8A to another DUETTO LIGHT 8A or
other powered speaker.
5) AC VOLTAGE SELECTOR
This switch is used to change the operating voltage. Operating voltage can be toggled between 115V or
230V/50~60Hz. Be sure the selector is set to the proper voltage for your area before attempting to operate the
unit. Always be sure main power is shut off before change the position of the Voltage Selector Switch!
6) MAIN POWER INLET

connection uses an I.E.C. type connector, use only a power cord that matches this type of connection. Be
sure to only connect this unit to a power outlet that matches the printed power label on the unit. Never use a
power when the ground prong has been removed or broken off. The ground prong is used to reduce the risk
of electrical shock in case of an electrical short. This cord is designed to fit in one direc-tion only. Do not at-
tempt to force a cord if it does not fit, be sure the cord is being inserted properly.
7) FUSE HOLDER
115V voltage use 3.15A protective fuse and 230V voltage use 5A protective fuse. Always replace with the ex-
act same type fuse, unless otherwise instructed, by an authorized service technician. Replacing with any other
type of fuse than that of the recommended fuse will void your unit warranty.
8) MICROPHONE INPUT VOLUME
This knob is used to increase or decrease the volume ouput on your DUETTO LIGHT 8A.

gain is +12dB and the maximum amount of treble decrease is -12dB. Turning the knob in a counter-clockwise
direction will decrease the amount of treble applied to a channel signal, turning the knob in a clockwise direc-
tion will increase the amount of treble applied to a channel signal.
12) LOW CONTROL
This knob is used to regulate the amount bass applied to the output signal. The maximum amount of bass gain
is +12dB and the maximum amount of bass decrease is -12dB. Turning the knob in a counter - clockwise direc-
tion will decrease the amount of bass applied to a channel signal, turning the knob in a clockwise direction will
increase the amount of bass applied to a channel signal.
13) POWER INDICATOR LED
LED lights up to indicate the speaker is on.
14) CLIP LED
If this LED is lit it means your signal is clipping. To stop the signal from clipping lower the volume to the point
where the LED is blinking along with the bass beat.
15) MAIN POWER SWITCH
This is the main power ON / OFF button. A green LED directly above the power switch will glow indicating
power is ON. Before main power is applied, be sure you have made all connections to the speaker. Remem-
