Safety Information
Precautions
The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol in an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of non-insulated “dangerous voltage” inside the appliance that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock.
The exclamation mark within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the product.

1 –Introduction
Thank you for choosing this PRODIPE product.
Safety Information
To ensure both your safety and the proper functioning of this product, please take
the time to read the safety instructions on the back cover.
WARNING. To avoid any possibility of electric shock, please do not remove the
back panel of this product. For any repair work please contact either the shop
where you purchased the product or a qualified technician.
Please note that when the volume is turned up high, this equipment can produce
sound levels which may irreparably damage your hearing.
2 –Connections
To ensure that your speaker is properly connected, please adhere to the following steps:
1. Check your audio lead.
2. Switch on the equipment you intend to use with the speaker (console, PC, audio
equipment, etc.).
3. Check the speaker settings and your audio equipment (volume turned down to its
lowest level).
4. Check the voltage , turn the speaker POWER switch to ON - the red LED should
light up.
Note that: when powering off, the Prodipe speaker should be switched off first (switch to
OFF and red LED goes out).
Important: the choice of voltage via the AC SELECT switch depends on your power
supply. Any change to the voltage should be carried out when the speaker is off (switch to
OFF and speaker unplugged from the power supply). When setting up your speaker, please
pay regard to the following procedure:

3 –Settings
Various settings are available on the front panel of the speakers:
Figure 3
VOLUME
STEREO: controls the volume of the STEREO L and R inputs
MIC: adjusts the volume of the MIC input
INST: adjusts the volume of the INST input
MASTER: adjusts the master volume
EQUALISER
BASS: corrects the bass tonality
TREBLE: corrects the treble tonality
When the controls are mid way, no correction is taking place; moving the control in an
anti-clockwise direction decreases the tonality, whereas in a clockwise direction it
increases the tonality.
4 –Audio Input/Output Sockets
Figure 4
The CAB 100 and the CAB 200 feature three different sockets for maximum flexibility:
STEREO: 1 stereo connector with L and R jacks for connection to any line-input
equipment such as a keyboard, PC or other audio player (MP3, SmartPhone, etc.) - a
strong stereo signal is maintained.
INST: 1 mono jack input to connect an instrument such as an acoustic electric guitar.
MIC: 1 XLR input to connect a mic.

The CAB 100 and the CAB 200 also feature a LINK male XLR output socket so that you can
supplement the power by adding another speaker such as another CAB 100 or CAB 200.
IMPORTANT: This output does not control the stereo of the combined L and R inputs.
5 –Speaker Orientation
The ‘foot bath’ shape of the speakers (45° angled cabinet) is deliberate. It makes them
perfect for a near-field speaker setup or a combined speaker/amp setup.
The CAB 100 and CAB 200 speakers are also fitted with a slot so that they can be attached
to a stand (sold separately).
