3000Hz are reproduced by a 1-inch exit compression driver. The low frequencies are produced through a high output 15-inch woofer. The SR1530 accepts a line-level signal via a female XLR input jack. A male XLR Thru jack is provided for daisy-chaining the signal to additional SR1530 cabinets.

4 VERIFICATION OF THE LOW FREQUENCY SECTION. 4.1 Initially set the input signal to 30 mV at 100Hz. 4.2 Increase the input signal slowly until the limiter starts to stabilize the output to 35V (approximately 76.7W) with an input of approx 250 mV. 4.3 Lower the input signal until the limiter is not operating.
Safety test You must perform the following leakage test before returning the unit to your customer. Take every safety precaution to protect yourself while doing this test. 1. Make a small loading RC circuit as shown in the diagram below, and connect the AC volt meter between the AC power source ground and any exposed metal on the unit under test.

SR1530 active speaker modification Models affected: All SR1530 active speakers before serial number: EA 14008 Add this as part of your normal repair procedures. Symptom: Lack of midrange frequencies, or intermittent midrange Possible Cause: Poor connection of the midrange wires to the midrange transducer.
