LOUDSPEAKER SET UP
The GSXED-18 are designed for a so-fit mounted system, but can be used standalone in
open space.
PLATE AMPLIFIER SET UP :
Inputs: 2 x RCA summing, XLR input
Switchable ON-Auto-OFF/12V trigger. Auto on with signal applied
12V trigger turn on. 3.5mm minijack input
Rotary controls:
Gain : Adjust the overall volume to Minus Infinity (mute) to 0dB
LF Adjust : Adjust the high pass frequency to 40 Hz Tone Shelf, +-12 dB, Boost / Cut,
Respectively.
Crossover : Adjust the crossover frequency Butterworth Low-Pass Filter, 60 Hz to 500 Hz.
Delay : Adjust the delay time when subwoofer reacts from 0 ms to 20 ms
Speaker Out :
The speaker out is design to run a second passive cabinet. So if you have the amp
connected to a 8ohm speaker and connect another 8 ohm speaker in a separate cabinet
using the speaker out, the amplifier load will have a 4 ohm load on the output which is post
procecessed. THE L R inputs are kind of weirdly named (not something I did) but
essentially if you plug into both signals L+R you will get the sum of both inputs.
