Save the carton and packing material even if the speaker
has arrived in perfect condition. Should you ever need
to ship the speaker for servicing, use the original
packaging supplied.
Read all documentation before operating your speaker.
Retain all documentation for future reference.
Follow all instructions printed on this user manual and the
back panel of the speaker for proper and safe operation.
Do not spill water or other liquids into or on the
speaker, or operate the speaker whilst under wet
or damp conditions.
Ensure that power outlets and mains voltage conforms
to the power requirements printed on the back panel of
the speaker.
Do not use the speaker if the electrical power cable is
frayed or damaged. The power supply cable should be
routed so that it is not walked upon or pinched by objects
close by. Only use the original power cable supplied with
your speaker.
Always operate the speaker with the AC Earth wire
connected on both sides.
Precaution should be taken so that the Earth connection
is not defeated.
Gain controls of the speaker should be turned to the
minimum position (Completely anti-clockwise) during
the switch on and switch off operation in order to prevent
damage to loudspeakers.
Power down and disconnect your speaker from mains
power before attempting any physical connections to
loudspeakers or audio sources.
Never force the power on-off switch to the “On” position if
it will not stay there by itself.
Never use your speaker near heat radiating appliances
such as stoves and heaters.
Do not block the airflow vents located on the front and rear
panels of your speaker. Do not operate your speaker on
a surface or environment which may impede the normal
flow of air around the speaker.
If the speaker is used in an extremely dusty or smoky
environment, the speaker should periodically be blown
free of foreign matter.
Do not remove the cover, front or rear panels of the
speaker. Removing any cover will expose you to
potentially dangerous voltages. There are no user
serviceable parts inside.
Connecting your speaker output to an oscilloscope or
other test equipment while the speaker is in bridge mode
may damage both the speaker and the test equipment.
Do not apply an input signal that is much greater than that
which is required to achieve maximum output level.
This may damage the pre-amplification stage circuitry.
Do not connect the input or output connectors of your
speaker to any other voltage sources such as batteries,
mains power or power supply units, regardless of whether
the speaker is switched on or off.
Never connect the output of your speaker to an input or
output of the same or any other speaker.
During long periods of no use, the power cable should be
unplugged from the mains voltage outlet.
After long periods of no use, the power cable should
be inspected for any damage before using the
speaker again.
Your speaker should be serviced only by qualified
service personnel. Contact your nearest official retailer
should your speaker need technical attention.
Your speaker should be serviced by a qualified service
technician when:
- The power supply cord or plug/s have been damaged
- Objects have fallen, or liquids have been spilled inside
the amplifier enclosure
- The speaker has been exposed to rain or
excessive moisture
- The speaker does not appear to operate normally, or
exhibits a reduced change in performance
- The speaker has been dropped or the enclosure
is damaged
- Either one of the red protect LED’s is indicating a fault
and has not corrected itself
IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
Symbol warning the operator that uninsulated,
dangerous voltages are present within the
enclosure that may pose a risk to electric shock.
Symbol alerting the operator to follow important
operating instructions and precautions detailed in
this document
Please read these instructions carefully which includes important
information about the installation, operation and maintenance.
INTRODUCTION
FEATURES
PLACEMENT TIPS
CAUTIONS
Congratulations on your purchasing of a powered loudspeaker PB series , engineered and designed by Hybrid. The PB series
includes a high-output compression driver, and 15” or 12” woofer to produce an even, smooth studio quality sound in a sound
reinforcement speaker. Our design goal was to build a speaker with accurate playback, smooth dispersion of mid and high
frequencies and an ergonomic design for easy transport and setup. The result is a sound reinforcement system dynamic
enough to use at home, in the studio, parties or in home theater.
2-way amplified Active Speaker
Long-throw woofer with high-temperature voice coil
Ultra-wide, smooth dispersion of high and mid frequencies
Mic/Line input and line out , pass-thru connector
Speakon out for a passive speaker
Stand/Pole-mountable
Avoid placing loudspeakers in the corners of a room. This increases the low-frequency output and can cause the sound
to be muddy and indistinct.
Avoid placing loudspeakers against a wall. This, too, increases the low frequency output, though not as much as
corner placement. However, if you do need to reinforce the low frequencies, this is a good way to do it.
Avoid placing the active speakers directly on a hollow stage floor. A hollow stage can resonate at certain frequencies,
causing peaks and dips in the frequency response of the room. It’s better to place the speakers on a sturdy table or
tripod stands.
Position the speakers so the high-frequency drivers are two to four feet above ear level to the audience to maintain
high frequency quality.
All Operating Instructions should be read before using this equipment.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not open this unit. There are NO REPLACEABLE PARTS INSIDE.
Please refer servicing to a qualified service technician.
Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or to a heat source such as a radiator or stove.
This unit should only be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid solvents or other cleaning detergents.
When moving this equipment, it should be placed in its original carton and packaging.
This will reduce the risk of damage during transit.
DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
DO NOT US ANY SPRAY CLEANER OR LUBRICANT ON ANY CONTROLS OR SWITCHES
Make sure All of your equipment is completely OFF and lower ALL VOLUME, LEVEL & GAIN controls before
connecting a sound source.
Only LINE LEVEL SIGNALS SHOULD BE SENT TO YOUR SPEAKER.
