6.The appliance is approved for operation in dry, closed rooms only. Do not operate the device nearby water,
such as in bathrooms or nearby swimming pools.
7.The appliance may not be exposed to extreme temperatures (< +5°C / > +35°C) in operation.
8.The appliance may not be subjected to strong vibrations or heavy mechanical strain.
9.The appliance may not be exposed to excessive moisture (due to dripping or sprayed water, for example).
10.Do not place any recipients filled with liquids, such as glasses or vases, on top of or directly next to the
appliance. They could fall over, causing water to enter the appliance. Never pour out liquids above the
appliance. Do not place any small objects, such as coins or paper clips, on the appliance since they could
fall inside the appliance. You run a high risk of causing a fire or life-threatening electrocution! If any liquid
or objects enter the appliance never theless, pull the mains plug out of the socket immediately and contact
a specialist.
11.The appliance has been constructed according to protection class l. The power plug must only be plugged
into a protection class I outlet. The voltage and frequency must exactly be the same as stated on the device.
Wrong voltages or power outlets can lead to the destruction of the device and to lethal electrical shock.
12.110- 240 Vac, 50/60 Hz mains socket may be used as source of power for the appliance. Never try to operate
the appliance with any other voltage.
13.Only pull the mains plug out of the socket by the intended gripping surface. Do not pull it by the cable.
14.Never plug the mains plug in or out with damp or wet hands.

19.Electrical appliances must be kept out of the reach of children. Be par ticularly careful if children are pre-
sent. Children are not aware of the hazards involved in handing electrical appliances improperly. Children
could attempt to poke objects into the appliance. There is a life-threatening danger of electrocution.
20.Do not leave the appliance unattended while operating it.
21.Never place the appliance on an unstable or movable surface. Persons could be injured or the appliance
damaged by it falling down.
22.When using a rack, make sure it is in a stable position and is transpor ted securely. Installation on uneven,
slanted surfaces or stopping the rack abruptly during transport can result in the rack over turning or applian-
ces falling from or out of the rack and injuring people.
23.Live components can be exposed by opening covers or removing components (unless this can be done wi-
thout tools). Contact points can also be live. If the appliance has to be opened in order to calibrate, service,
repair or replace components or assemblies, all of its poles must be disconnected from all sources of voltage
first. If the appliance has to be kept open and under voltage during maintenance or repairs, this work may only
be carried out by a specialist who is familiar with the risks involved and the relevant regulations.
24.Never connect the appliance directly after transferring it from a cold to a warm room. The condensation
water that forms could destroy the appliance or result in an electric shock. Allow the device to reach
room temperature before connecting it. Wait until the condensation water has evaporated. This can take
some hours.
25.Do not place any naked flames such as those of burning candles on or next to the appliance.
26.Do not place the appliance on soft surfaces such as carpets or beds. Do not cover the air vents of the
appliance. Do not obstruct the air circulation with objects such as magazines, table cloths or curtains. This
prevents the dissipation of heat from the appliance and can result in overheating.

1.[MIC/LINE 1 INPUT PANEL SECTION]-In this panel section there is a connector (female XLR-type) that accept balanced
MIC or LINE level signals. By using LINE/MIC switch it is possible to adapt the gain to microphone or line level signal; The
LEVEL knob allows to adjust the input signal level. The THRU connector (male XLR-type) produce exactly the same signal
that arrive in the input . Use it to daisy-chain several M36PS speakers.
NOTE: Please notice that the input connector do not supply +48V Phantom Power, so you can use condenser
microphones only if self-powered
2.[LINE 2 INPUT PANEL SECTION]-This section includes 2 Jack 1/4” inputs (L/MONO, R) to connect musical instruments,
Mixer etc. The input audio signal can be adjusted by using the relative knob
3.[LINE 3 INPUT PANEL SECTION]-This panel section includes:
1.One 1/8” Mini-jack plug that can be used to connect mobile phones, tablets, computers, etc.
2.Two unbalanced inputs for RCA pin jacks that can be used to connect any external stereo device such as Mp3 Player, CD
player, Mixer, Etc.
3.One knob to adjust the input audio signal.
Note: The Mini-Jack and RCA stereo inputs can not be used at the same time.
4.[LINK OUT PANEL SECTION]-From the XLR “LINK OUT” audio signals are sent (routed from each INPUT) to a connected
M36PS loudspeaker. The LINK OUT output must be connected to the INPUT 1 (XLR) of the APOLLO loudspeaker. The audio
signals coming out of the LINK OUT jack are line level and therefore it is necessary to set the MIC / LINE switch to the LINE
position on the connected APOLLO AX loudspeaker.
The “LINK OUT MODE” switch enables you to select whether the mixed signal (on the original APOLLO) will be played in
stereo or monaural on the original and linked APOLLO.
The following signals are mixed and output according to the switch setting.
5.[DSP PRESETS PANEL SECTION]-In this panel section it is possible to change the speaker response adjusting the timbre
to the relevant applications. By pressing the PRESET switch, it is possible to scroll the following modes:
1.LIVE: The ideal preset for most “live” application.
2.DJ: Recommended for installations in discos and clubs.
3.SPEECH: The speaker allows the best speech intelligibility.
4.MONITOR: The speaker becomes specially suited for use as “stage monitor”.
The selected mode will be indicated by the relative LED
6.[FRONT LED SWITCH]-This switch allows to turn ON/OFF the Blue front LED.
7.[HPF Switch]-This switch allows to select the cutoff frequency of the high pass flter. Placing this switch on [120Hz] will
cut the low frequency components below the threshold. If the unit is used independently, the switch must remain in position
[OFF]. If you intend to use the unit in combination with a sub-woofer, we recommend that you set this switch to [120Hz].
8.[ POWER SWITCH]-Switch up to turn the speaker on, and switch down to turn it off. Make sure the level control is
down before you turn it on.
9.[ IEC Socket with Fuse holder]-Plug the line cord into an AC socket properly configured for your particular
model. In case of fuse burn, to prevent the risk of fire and damaging the unit, Before replacing the fuse, make sure
the unit turned off and disconnected from the AC outlet.

The speakers have a stand flange with a 0° angle socket (rear position) and a socket with a 7° tilt angle (front posi-
tion). Examples of use:Use the socket with a 0° angle for standing audiences and the socket with a 7° tilt angle for
seated audiences.
