DIAGRAM III-1: MAIN SPEAKER EQUALIZATION

IMPORTANT NOTES:

HEAVY LINES INDICATE DIRECT CONNECTIONS TO RE 27 AND RE 14. Thinner lines show other

connections in the system for clarity.

1. The RE 27 and RE 14 inputs are automatic balanced/unbalanced. If the output of the mixer is

unbalanced, use a shielded mono 1/4" patch cord to the EQ input(s). If the mixer is balanced, use a

connecting cord with a stereo 1/4" plug on one end for the EQ input(s) and a three-pin or 1/4" jack for the

mixer as required.

2. To drive both left and right amplifier channels from a single RE 27 output, use a “Y” connector to split

the RE 27 output to both left and right inputs of the amp or crossover. (NOTE: If you have the good

fortune to be using a Rane crossover AC 22 or AC 23, you need only connect the single RE 27 output to

the Channel 2 input of the crossover—both left and right outputs will automatically be driven internallyto

eliminate the need for a “Y” connector.)

3. If the RE 27 or RE 14 is more than 10 feet from the amp rack be sure that the input of the electronic

crossover or amplifier is BALANCED. If not, obtain a direct box or balancing line transformer to be

installed at the input of the amp rack. Connect the RE 27 or RE 14 output (s) to the amp rack using a stereo

1/4" plug wired as shown in Diagram I I-1. Long runs of unbalanced lines will usually result in excessive hum

or buzz.
