REAR PANEL: ALTERNATE MONO 4-WAY CONNECTIONS
The switching in the AC 23S will result in a Mono 4‑Way configuration with the crossover ranges
SUB, LOW, MID & HIGH from left to right across the bottom front panel. By connecting a patch cable
from the CHANNEL 1 HIGH OUT to the CHANNEL 2 INPUT, the LOW / MID crossover range changes
from 70 Hz‑1 kHz to a higher range of 190 Hz‑7 kHz.
Set the CHANNEL 1 HIGH LEVEL and the CHANNEL 2 MASTER LEVEL controls to “7” for unity gain.
Switch CHANNEL 1 to 3‑Way, CHANNEL 2 to 2‑Way, and set the MONO switch to 5‑Way.
1
MONO INPUT:
Connect the output from your mixer or other signal source only to the MONO 4W / 5W INPUT; do not use
the Channel 2 Input. Pin 2 is “hot” per AES standards.
2
Patch cable:
For this alternate Mono 4-Way installation, connect a balanced patch cord from the CHANNEL 1 HIGH OUT to
the CHANNEL 2 INPUT as shown.
3
SUBWOOFER OUTPUT:
Connect the SUB OUT to the input of the subwoofer amplifier (or bass bin amp).
4
LOW OUTPUT:
Connect the MID OUT to the input of the low frequency amplifier.
5
MID OUTPUT:
Connect the HIGH-MID OUT to the input of the mid frequency amplifier.
6
HlGH OUTPUT:
Connect the HIGH OUT to the input of the high frequency amplifier.
7
STEREO‑MONO switch:
Be sure this switch is in the STEREO out position. Yes, STEREO. A Mono circuit is created when
Channel 1 is patched into Channel 2, and the correct signal flow depends on this switch.
8
STEREO 2‑WAY / 3‑WAY switches:
For this configuration, set CHANNEL 1 to 3-Way, and CHANNEL 2 to 2-Way.
9
MONO 4‑Way / 5‑Way switch:
Be sure this switch is is in the 5-Way position. Yes, 5-Way. Just do it if you want this to work.

Universal Voltage Input: via a miniature IEC 60320 C6 appliance inlet. This mates with an IEC 60320 C5 line cord (USA
domestic). Do not lift the ground connection!
