4. Questions 1 How many speakers can I use with the Profile Two ANSWER Most speaker cabinets today are 8 ohms For the sake of this question we will assume this is the case You can use a total of four 8 ohm speakers with the Profile Two Two for the Left power amp and two for the Right power amp The Profile Two cabinets are 4 ohms each DO NOT connect more than one of these cabinets per power amp DO NOT plug more than two 6 ohm speakers or one 4 ohm speaker into each power amp The speaker has no sound when plugged into the monitor or sub woofer output jacks on the rear panel What s wrong ANSWER These are line level output jacks not capable of driving a speaker directly Use only powered monitors sub woofers or an external power amp with these jacks I only have a non powered monitor Is there any way to use it ANSWER Yes run a patch cord between the monitor out and the left or right power amp in Doing this will disable the left or right mains preamp out from that power amp The speaker connected to that power amp will be controlled by the master monitor volume What can I do to reduce microphone feedback ANSWER Keep the microphones away from and behind the speakers If this is not possible try panning the channel to the opposite speaker of the offending microphone The goal is to prevent sound produced by the speaker from entering the front of the microphone The master graphic EQ also works well for controlli
