• Plywood cabinets with die-cast handles, dual-angle pole holder and mulple flying points
INTRODUCTION
NEOS PX series represents the highest expression of PROEL GROUP Research & Development applied in loudspeaker systems. A natural evoluon
of the NEOS Series, it incorporates the latest technologies developed by PROEL in advanced sound reinforcement systems able to provide premium
sound, maximum performance and up-to-date features.
The NEOS PX are designed for the use both as high-performance mobile systems for live applicaons and for advanced fixed installaons.
The NEOS PX are able to provide an exceponal sound definion together with very high dynamics and low distoron in an ultra-compact
package.
The NEOS PX passive filters are provided with a protecon on circuit for the HF driver, which has a two-step operaon: the first step reduces the
power accordingly to the music content and without an audible effect; if a too high power level is present for a long period of me, the second
step shut the HF driver off.

REAR PANEL
INPUT - External amplifier power input. The signal is filtered by a passive crossover. The connecons depend by the configuraon sengs
accordingly the following table:
INPUT
FULL RANGE BI-AMP
1+ / 1- INPUT 1+ / 1- LOW
2+ / 2- INTERNALLY N.C. 2+ / 2- HIGH
LINK - Power signal output, to connect the unit to another speaker. The INPUT and LINK connectors are parallel to each other.
PRODUCT LABEL - In this label are wrien the most important data informaon about the passive loudspeaker, model, impedance, maximum
applicable connuous power, serial number.
FULL RANGE / BI-AMP MODE - The speaker system can operate both in FULL RANGE and BI-AMP mode:
In FULL RANGE mode a built- in crossover filter allows the loudspeaker to be powered by a single amplifier.
The BI-AMP mode requires a dedicated amplifier for each speaker (woofer and HF driver), even if the internal crossover is not excluded we
recommend the use of an external crossover or processor before the amplifiers.
The mode selecon can be done by an internal jumper (see figure 1), which can be accessible by removing the rear connecon plate. The factory
seng is FULL-RANGE mode.

CIRCUIT.
