LINE CORD All Carvin equipment is supplied with 3 conductor line cords for maximum safety, greatly reducing the chance of electrical shock. If the XC3000 unit is to be plugged into a (2) prong outlet, use a quality 3 to 2 prong grounded adapter. Do not defeat the grounding pin of your AC line cord as this is for your protection. The XLR connector wiring is as follows: Pin #1 ground, Pin #2 Positive Balance, Pin #3 Negative Balance. BALANCED 1 / 4" PHONE INPUT The balanced 1 / 4" phone input jack will accept either balanced or non-balanced connections. For best results use balanced (Tip, Ring, Sleeve) connections to reduce cable hum. PHASE INVERTER SWITCH The PHASE inverter switch gives you the option of inverting the phase of each of the main output to correct any phase inversion problem at your speakers or power amps. 6. LOW OUT XLR The LOW OUT 1 / 4" phone jack provides a balanced output for the low pass filter of the channel. This is where you connect the power amp that will be driving your bass cabinets. MID OUT XLR The MID OUT 1 / 4" phone jack provides a balanced output for the band pass filter of the channel. This is where you connect the power amp that will be driving your mid range cabinets. HIGH OUT XLR The HIGH OUT 1 / 4" phone jack provides a balanced output for the high pass filter of the channel. This is where you connect the power amp that will be driving your high frequency horns or tweeters. MONO (LOW 1+2) SWITCH Combines both signals from each channel's low pass filters. This is where you would connect a power amp to drive a mono subwoofer sustem. BI-AMPLIFYING WITH THE XC3000 MONO BI-AMP CONFIGURATION System Requirements: A) Mono source (Mixer) B) One Stereo Power Amp C) Individual Horn and Woofer Connections STEREO BI-AMP CONFIGURATION System Requirements: A) Stereo source (Mixer) B) Two Stereo Power Amps C) Individual Horn and Woofer Connections Set the intput "GAIN" so that the "PEAK" LED does not illuminate. Simply plug your full range frequency source into the "CHANNEL ONE" 1/4 " PHONE or XLR input connector at the rear panel of the XC3000. Then connect the "LOW OUT" and "HIGH OUT" XLR jacks to the input of your power amplifier. Note: If a stereo amplifier is used, you will male your connections to either side "Channel 1" or "Channel 2" of the amplifier as respectively used in connection to the horns and woofers of your sound system. Depress the "2 WAY / 3 WAY" selector switch on the front panel of the XC3000 so that the unit will operate in BIAmp mode. [. . . ] To do this you need to patch the "LOW OUT" XLR phone jack of "CHANNEL ONE" into the input jack of "CHANNEL TWO". Now the "CHANNEL TWO" "LOW OUT" and "MID OUT" jacks will be used to send signal to your sub woofer and bass power amps, and the "CHANNEL ONE" "MID OUT" and "HIGH OUT" jacks will feed your mids and highs power amps.
