Califone PA916-PS - Manual

P o w e r f u l S o u n d P r e s e n t a t i o n S o l u t i o n s ™
The Califone ® PowerPro is the ideal system for those who require an easy-to-use, portable
sound reinforcement solution but do not have the budget, technical know-how or time
required to operate a multi-component system.
Designed for any kind of venue, this 90-watt RMS PowerPro Companion Speaker can used as
a solo companion speaker or with other companion speakers to a PowerPro master speaker
for coverage of crowds numbering 2000 or more in larger sized venues. It can also be used as
a master speaker driving up to two non-powered support speakers or as a stand alone unit for
crowds up to 1000 people, giving it flexibility and versatility for any budget and situation.
The PowerPro Companion Speaker is the first portable companion speaker to deliver
wireless capability. It comes equipped with one 16-channel built-in wireless mic receiver and a
balanced XLR mic input as well as an active bus circuit that can be used to connect two
additional units in a conventional wired fashion. A non-powered support speaker can be
connected via the 1/4” speaker out jacks. Its 10” high-powered woofer is driven by a beefy 40
ounce magnet (the most efficient in its class) and a high-frequency compression driver for optimal
audio reproduction. The PowerPro Companion Speaker also has independent bass and treble
controls, digital master volume control, power status indicator and a universal power supply.
The PowerPro Companion Speaker gives added assurance during use by providing visual
confirmation of power, radio frequency and audio reception for its wireless receiver through a
set of LED lights on the front of the speaker.
Its durablefiberglass-reinforced polypropylene enclosure has a rugged powder-coated
perforated steel grille and a telescoping handle for easy transporting. The PowerPro
Companion Speaker is also C-UL and CE approved safe for use in schools, by rental
facilities and at other venues. And because the PowerPro shares wireless frequencies and
microphones with the PresentationPro PA series, the two can be used together to extend PA
coverage, budgets and builds in versatility by avoiding expensive redundancies in equipment.
