volumes. Please keep in mind that high sound
pressures do not only temporarily damage your
sense of hearing, but can also cause permanent
hearing damage. Be careful to select a suitable
volume at all times.
2. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND
CONNECTIONS
Fig. 2.1: Control elements and connections (B212A and B215A)
Use this 1/4" stereo jack to connect a signal source that
has 1/4" output.
Use this XLR connector to connect a signal source that
has XLR output.
Always use either the XLR or the 1/4" jack input,
and use the LEVEL control to adapt the input
sensitivity. Never use both inputs at the same time!
The LINK OUTPUT is directly connected to the inputs of the
B212A/B215A and carries the input signal with no processing
applied. In this way, you can route the signal to the input of
another device (for example, a second B212A/B215A).
To set the volume of the LINE or MIC signal, use the LEVEL
control. The left half of the control range is for attenuating
the LINE signal. The right half is for raising the level of the
MIC signal.
The CLIP LED lights up when signal distortion occurs. Reduce
the volume with the LEVEL control until the CLIP LED does
not light up any more, or occasionally lights up at signal
peaks.
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that
extremely loud sound levels may damage your
hearing as well as your headphones/loudspeakers.
Turn the LEVEL control fully to the left before you
switch on the unit. Be careful to select a suitable
volume at all times.
The HIGH control adjusts the high-frequency range.
Use the LOW control to raise the level of the low-frequency
range.
The PWR LED lights up when the loudspeaker is put into
operation.

(B212A and B215A)
You can replace fuses at the FUSE SWITCH of the B212A/
B215A. Always replace fuses with the same type. Please
follow the instructions given in chapter 5 “SPECIFICATIONS.”
The mains connection is established using a cable with an IEC
mains connector. This cable is delivered with the B212A/
B215A. To avoid ground-loop hum, loudspeakers and mixing
consoles should be connected to the same power circuit.
POWER
Press POWER to turn on your B212A/B215A.
Attention: The POWER switch does not fully
disconnect the unit from the mains. To disconnect
the unit from the mains, pull out the main cable plug
or appliance coupler. When installing the product,
ensure the plug or appliance coupler is readily
operable. Unplug the power cord completely when
the unit is not used for prolonged periods of time.
