CM Series Passive Monitors
The ‘CM’ range of speakers are passive monitors designed to compliment the powered
‘CP’ monitors.
They should be connected via the ‘Extension Speaker’ socket on the powered monitor,
and are then remotely controlled from the front panel of the ‘CP’ monitor.
Level and EQ settings from the powered monitor are passed directly on to the un-
powered monitor, allowing an even mix between the two speakers.
The ‘CM’ monitors are rated at 8 Ohms, which, when connected to the 8 Ohm speaker
within the ‘CP’ monitor, will drop the overall load impedance of the speakers down to 4
Ohms.
This will allow the amplifier within the powered monitor to work to its full potential,
creating not only a more expansive sound from the two speakers, but also more volume
from the amp itself.
Additional powered monitors can be connected to an existing ‘CP’ monitor via the ‘Link’
output socket, running straight into the ‘Line’ input on the second powered monitor.
The ‘Link’ output is a line level output, which allows the same monitor mix to be fed to
another powered monitor, which can, in turn, power another ‘CM’ monitor, giving you a
total of four speakers running at once.
You can then continue to add more powered and unpowered monitors by simply ‘daisy-
chaining’ them in this way...
Alternatively, if more power is required from just two cabinets, then two ‘CP’ monitors
can be hooked together by using the ‘Link’ socket on the first powered monitor, running
straight into the ‘Line’ input of the second.
You then control the output of the second monitor using the front panel, as if the signal
was coming straight from the source.
