PLACEMENT The SWA1501 subwoofer is designed to sit on the floor or on sturdy stands. A socket is provided on the top of the SWA1501 for mounting the Mackie SRM450 active speaker. Use the optional Mackie speaker mounting pole to mount the SRM450 on the SWA1501 (see Hookup Diagram on page 5).
AC POWER Be sure the SWA1501 is plugged into an outlet that is able to supply the correct voltage specified for your model. If the voltage should drop below 97% of the specified line voltage, the built-in amplifiers will no longer be able to supply rated power.
• Is there a light dimmer or other SCR- based device on the same AC circuit as the SWA1501? Use an AC line filter or plug the SWA1501 into a different AC circuit. • Try disconnecting the cable connected to the INPUT jack.
