In the following pages of this manual, you will find a detailed explanation of all the Live Series
functions and controls, but if you just want to get started quickly with the L1212 and L1215 you can
follow the steps below.
Using a Line Level Signal
• Be sure that the Live Series
speakers’ Power switch is set
to the off position.
• Turn the LINE controls fully
counterclockwise to the off
position.
• Connect the power cables
to an AC socket.
• Connect your turntables or
CD players to your DJ mixer
following the manufacturers
instructions.
• Using a standard XLR cable,
connect the mixer’s left
output to the left side Live
Series’ LINE INPUT and then
connect the mixer’s right
output to the right side LIVE
series’ LINE INPUT.
• Switch the Live Series Power
switch to the ON position.
• Now, run an audio signal (like some music from a CD) from your mixer and check that you are getting a
good level using the mixers output meter.
• Next, slowly raise the Live Series LINE LEVEL control until you have reached the desired level.
IMPORTANT NOTE!!: Be sure to watch the PEAK LED, as it should only light RED occasionally. Operating the
speaker while the PEAK LED stays on RED could cause catastrophic damage to your speaker. So be sure to
lower the mixers output or the LINE LEVEL input control until the PEAK LED lights RED only occasionally.
