    3. CONTROL ELEMENTS Rear Panel: 7 Input sockets These sockets accept the balanced signal from XLR and 1/4" connectors as well. These Inputs are compatible with low-impedance, unbalanced/balanced, line-level outputs emanating from such as mixers, synthesizers, drum machines, direct boxes, crossovers, etc. Electric guitars, microphones, and other low level/high-impedance output devices require a pre-amp or a D/I box.
  • Page 8: Operation

    A DEEPER LOOK: BALANCED OR UNBALANCED? When cables are very long (e.g., over 6 meters/20 feet), the cable itself can act as an "antenna" and pick up radio frequency noise, AC hum, or other types of noises. To avoid these problems, many recording studios and live sound installers use balanced lines.

    4.2 IMPEDANCE Your A400.4 will easily drive 4 Ohm loads in Stereo mode. However, the impedance of any loudspeaker changes with frequency, and its rated impedance is not always its minimum impedance. If you connect more than one loudspeaker to the A400.4, please check that the actual load impedance does not drop below the A400.4's rated output load that is 4 Ohm.
