Getting Started
The following steps will 
help you set up your 
loudspeakers quickly. 
1.  Make all initial connections with the power 
switches OFF on all equipment. Make sure the 
master volume, level, or gain controls are all the 
way down.
.  Connect the line-level outputs from your mixing 
console (or other signal source) to the inputs of 
your power amplifier.
3.  Connect the “Speaker Output” from your 
power amplifier (or powered mixer) to the INPUT 
connector on the Series 69 (1/4" or Speakon jack).
4.  If you are using the 6918s subwoofer with one of 
the full-range loudspeakers, connect the 1/4" OUT 
or the Speakon LINK EXTENSION to the subwoofer’s 
input.
5.  Turn on your mixing console (or other signal 
source).
6.  Turn on the amplifier. Turn up its volume or gain 
control(s) as recommended by the manufacturer.
7.  Start the signal source, whether it be speaking 
into a microphone or starting a CD player. Adjust 
the volume controls on the mixer (or other signal 
source) for normal operation.
