1. INTRODUCTION
By purchasing a BEHRINGER P Series loudspeaker, you have
obtained an outstanding PA loudspeaker system. Now, you own
(at least) one component of an expandable system that
reproduces your music with a balanced and pure sound. Thanks
to its numerous features, the P Series is the ideal PA loudspeaker
system: it is equally well-suited for both small gigs and larger
stages. We have brought it to life in order to offer you a complete
selection of loudspeakers. In doing so, we have left open all the
options for expanding your PA system. All loudspeakers feature
professional inputs and outputs (compatible with Neutrik
Speakon
connectors), letting you flexibly expand your setup whenever
you need to.
+ The following instructions are intended to familiarize
you with the specialized terminology used throughout
this user manual in order for you to master all the
functions. After having thoroughly read the user
manual, store it in a safe place for future reference.
1.1 Before you get started
1.1.1 Shipment
Your loudspeaker was carefully packed at the assembly plant to
assure secure transport. Should the condition of the cardboard
box suggest that damage may have taken place, please inspect
the unit immediately and look for physical indications of damage.
+ Damaged units should NEVER be sent directly to us.
Please inform the dealer from whom you acquired
the unit immediately as well as the transportation
company from which you took delivery of the unit.
Otherwise, all claims for replacement/repair may
be rendered invalid.
+ Please always use the original packaging to avoid
damage due to storage or shipping.
+ Never let unsupervised children play with the
loudspeaker or its packaging.
+ Please dispose of all packaging materials in an
environmentally friendly fashion.
INFORMATION
+ The sound quality may diminish within the range of
powerful broadcasting stations and high-frequency
sources. Increase the distance between the
transmitter and the device and use shielded cables
for all connections.

2. CONNECTIONS

You will find these on the connection panel at the rear of the
loudspeaker.

Professional speaker connectors (compatible with Neutrik
Speakon connectors). The pin designation of the speaker
is pins 1+ and 1-. Pins 2+ and 2- are not connected.

Both connectors of each type are wired in parallel. You can
optionally connect one of the connectors to the output on your
power amp, and tap into the signal on the second connector in
order to feed this signal into an additional loudspeaker.

amp output to the loudspeaker system. This may
permanently damage your setup.
