Binary preset files and a full .xbl library file will be found on the latest User Guides CD for XTA

DP226 Loudspeaker Management Systems. Please see the Martin Audio User Guides CD (May

2005 or later) for further details.

Please note: Output limiters will need to be fine adjusted for safe operation with your particular

choice of power amplifier. See the AQX limiter chart towards the end of Section 12 and transpose

the appropriate setting to your DX1 to suit your amplifier gain. Use the automatic attack/release

timings.

15. AQ Series system wiring

A high current, low profile, 2-part Input and Link connector will also be found on the rear panel

(see AQ5 rear panel illustration below). The input and link positions are parallel-connected inside

the cabinet for easy parallel speaker wiring. Convention dictates that the incoming signal cable is

connected to the Input + & - and that the Link + & - is used as the output to the next loudspeaker

in the system. The loudspeaker pinout is printed near the rear connector. Remove the plug to see it!

AQ5

AQ5s are dual-driver systems for wide coverage. The two 8 ohm drivers are identical and may be

driven in series (16 ohm) or parallel (4 ohm).

(4 ohm operation selected)

There is an impedance selector switch (circled) on the rear panel to enable 4 or 16 ohm operation.

The above illustration shows the switch in the 4 ohm position.

Note:

Always make sure that the AQX internal jumpers are set for the proposed system and that the

appropriate mode (Full range – blue indicator, With Sub – orange indicator) is selected on the

AQX front panel.
