1. Choose a microphone with high directivity, i.e. cardioid or hyper-cardioid polar
pattern.
2. Never point the microphone directly down in front of the speaker. Holding the micro
phone in normal position will allow you to be closer to the stage monitor with out feed
back.
3. See illustration below as to position of microphones when mounted in stand.
Cardiod polar patter microphones should always be at a 90 degree angle to the axis of
the stage monitor. Hyper Cardioid polar pattern microphones should be positioned at
an acute angle to the sage monitor.
You may choose to add a feedback eliminating processor to your system for additional
exibility on stage.
There is really only one volume control on the Power Gig unit, that is the knob marked
MASTER.
The Mic In Balanced volume control and secondary input gain control are matching
devices to match the preamp voltages of items such as microphones and guitars or
other musical instruments with your Power Gig unit. Never turn these up to maximum
unless indicated by the instructions below. With a properly matched signal your system
will produce less distortion, be subject to less feedback, and will produce louder, cleaner
and clearer sound. Use the Master control as your volume once all inputs are matched
properly. Your Power Gig features a CLIP LED indicator to help you set and match your
components. Please be sure to read all set up instructions so your Power Gig sounds its
best.
Your Power Gig features a balanced microphone input accessible via XLR or TRS input.
1. Make sure the Power Gig is in OFF position.
2. Plug in your microphone.

Your Power Gig is set up to produce the full spectrum of sound from its woofer and
tweeter horn combination. The lower frequencies seek out the oor of the room they are
playing and travel along the oor and walls. The tweeter horn is more directional. Hence
when setting up your system its more important to make sure that the tweeter horns are
not blocked by any furniture and are located / aimed at ear level to the listening audience.
Woofer aiming is not as critical as explained previously due to the nature of the woofer
sounds able to travel through various paths even when blocked.
It is therefore recommended that when setting up your system you set up your speak-
ers on speaker stands, such as the Rockville model RVSS-2 (not included) so that the
tweeter sounds will radiate above the listening crowd. This will guarantee optimum sound
dispersion and achieve clear vocal sound reproduction.
The placement of your microphone is critical in avoiding feedback through your Power
Gig system. Never set up your microphone in front of the speaker. Always set up your mi-
crophone behind the speaker. When approaching the speaker to make any adjustments,
we recommend approaching the speaker from the rear and not walking directly towards
the front of the speaker.
Your Power Gig speaker comes standard with two brackets which snap in to the cabinet
sides allowing it to be placed on the oor at an angle as a stage monitor. Unlike a PA set-
up which face the crowd, stage monitors are set up to face the performer on stage and to
direct the sound towards them. This presents a particular problem as now feed back may
occur. To avoid stage monitor feedback the following precautions should be taken.
