Frequently Asked Questions

While technically possible, the crossover and power output are optimized for tactile transducers, so performance may be suboptimal with conventional speakers.
The loop out allows you to send the signal to another device (like a processor) without interrupting the main output to your transducers.
It's a serviceable preamp for basic vocal needs, but a dedicated, higher-end preamp would offer superior sonic quality for critical recording applications.
