S500 Series Loudspeakers
The S512’s may be used with the S518S subwoofers to create an incredibly powerful system. Here, the
left and right line-level outputs from a mixer feed the inputs of a power amplifier. The speaker outputs of
the power amplifier feed the inputs of two Mackie S512 loudspeakers. Their respective THRU jacks feed
the inputs of a pair of Mackie S518S subwoofers, whose internal low-pass filter allows the subwoofers
to reproduce only the lowest frequencies. The S512’s may be pole-mounted on top of the S518S
subwoofers, as displayed.
