This type of setup will typically be found at small indoor or outdoor gigs, festivals, weddings, or parades where a high output
PA with wide coverage and throw is necessary. This is a great setup for local DIY bands, too.
The lef output from a mixer feeds the ch.  input of a Mackie DRM8S powered subwoofer. The ch.  direct output
of the subwoofer feeds the input of a Mackie DRM2A powered arrayable loudspeaker. The DRM2A reproduces
the mid-to-high frequencies in mono, and the sub provides the low frequencies in mono.
It is possible to reproduce this exact same hookup in stereo. Simply utilize the lef and right main outputs from the mixer
to feed the ch.  inputs of each subwoofer and mirror the rest of the system as identified above.
Another important aspect to keep in mind is the rigging setup. In this diagram, the DRM2As are pole-mounted on a DRM8S
subwoofer, utilizing an SPM400 adjustable pole. Refer to pages 8 and 9 for more information about rigging.
You will want to set the crossover to DRM Top as described in detail on page 3. Or set it to Var if using a non-DRM
loudspeaker.
