In the following pages of this manual you will find a detailed explanation of all the dB500a’s
functions and controls, but if you just want to get started quickly you can follow the steps below.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To ensure the cleanest and loudest possible output, and to protect
your speaker system, we highly recommend pressing the LIMITER switch on.
Using a Microphone
• Be sure that the dB500a’s Power switch is set
to the off position.
•Turn the LINE and MIC LEVEL controls fully
counterclockwise to the off position.
• Connect the power cable to an AC socket.
• Using a standard XLR cable, plug a micro-
phone into the dB500a’s MIC INPUT.
• Switch the dB500a’s Power switch to the ON
position.
• While speaking into the microphone, slowly
raise the MIC LEVEL control until you have
reached the desired level.
Using a Line Level Signal
• Be sure that the dB500a’s Power switch is set
to the off position.
•Turn the LINE and MIC LEVEL controls fully
counterclockwise to the off position.
• Connect the power cable to an AC socket.
• Using a standard XLR or 1/4 inch cable, con-
nect a line level signal from a mixer or key-
board into the dB500a’s LINE INPUT.
• Switch the dB500a’s Power switch to the ON
position.
• Now, run an audio signal from your mixer (like some music from a CD) while slowly raising the
dB500a’s LINE LEVEL control until you have reached the desired level.
