Three ground-stacked DRM2A arrayable loudspeakers with single DRM8S
Hookup Diagrams continued...
This is the perfect setup for any venue where the audience is level with and sloping upward from the stage and PA.
For example, a bowl, a shed or a gym with bleachers.
The lef output from a mixer feeds the ch.  input of a single Mackie DRM8S powered subwoofer. The ch.  high-pass output
of the subwoofer feeds the input of a Mackie DRM2A powered arrayable loudspeaker. The output of that Mackie DRM2A
powered arrayable loudspeaker feeds the input of the next Mackie DRM2A powered arrayable loudspeaker. The DRM2As
reproduce 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.  input of each DRM8S and mirror the rest of the system as described above.
Another important aspect to keep in mind is the rigging setup. In this diagram, the DRM2As are ground stacked
on a DRM8S utilizing the FKDRM18S Flyware Kit. This system may also be flown utilizing the FB00 Flybar,
with the DRM8S powered subwoofer on top. See pages 8-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.
