5.2 Second C- RAY/ 8
A second C- RAY/ 8 can be used to provide
sound to a larger area and to reproduce
stereo sound.
To provide mono sound to a larger area,
connect the jack MIX OUT (17) of the first
C- RAY/ 8 to the jack LINE IN L (12) of the sec-
ond C- RAY/ 8.
To connect a third C- RAY/ 8, connect the
jack LINE OUT (13) of the second speaker
system to the jack LINE IN L of the third
speaker system. Proceed in the same way to
connect any further C- RAY/ 8; set the selec-
tion switch (14) on all speaker systems to the
position MONO. Thus, it is possible to adjust
the overall volume on the first C- RAY/ 8 and to
separately adjust the volume of the other
C- RAY/ 8 systems by means of the corre-
sponding control LINE (1).
To reproduce stereo sound, two connection
options are available:
1. Separate connection of the stereo chan-
nels
Send the signals for the left and right chan-
nels separately to two C- RAY/ 8 systems.
When the jack LINE IN R is used as an
input, set the selection switch (14) to the
position MONO. When other input jacks
are used, the position of the selection
switch does not matter.
2. Feed the signal of the right channel from
one C- RAY/ 8 to another C- RAY/ 8
For the left channel, set the selection
switch (14) of the C- RAY/ 8 to the position
RIGHT. Now, the speaker system only
reproduces the left channel of the input
LINE IN (12); the signal of the right chan-
nel is available at the output LINE OUT
(13). For the right channel, connect the
jack LINE OUT to the jack LINE IN L (12)
of the other C- RAY/ 8.

5.3 Additional amplifier

To connect an additional amplifier, two
options are available:
1. Connection via the jack LINE OUT (13)
At this jack, the monophonic signal of the
input LINE IN (12) is available. The selec-
tion switch (14) must be set to the position
MONO.
2. Connection via the jack MIX OUT (17)
At this jack, the mixed signal adjusted by
means of the controls LINE, MIC, COMBI
and AUX (1 – 4) is available.

5.4 Power supply

Use the mains cable supplied to connect the
mains jack (20) of the C- RAY/ 8 to a socket
(230 V~/ 50 Hz).
6 Operation
CAUTION Never adjust the speaker system
to a very high volume. Permanent
high volumes may damage your
hearing! Your ear will get accus-
tomed to high volumes which do not seem to
be that high after some time. Therefore, do
not further increase a high volume after get-
ting used to it.
1) To prevent switching noise and excessive
initial volume, set the controls LINE, MIC,
COMBI and AUX (1 – 4) to the position
MIN prior to setting the speaker system
into operation.
2) Set the selection switch (14) to the position
MONO; otherwise, only the left channel of
the input LINE IN (12) will be reproduced.
For stereo operation, however, set the
switch for the left channel to the position
RIGHT ( chapter 5.2).
3) Use the power switch (21) to switch the
unit on and off. When the unit is switched
on, the power switch and the blue power
indicator ON (10) light up.
4) Use the appropriate volume controls (1 – 4)
to mix the signals of the inputs or to fade
them in or out as desired. Always turn the
controls of unused inputs to the position
MIN.
Note: If there is feedback during microphone
operation, increase the distance between the
C- RAY/ 8 and the microphone and/or turn back
the volume control of the corresponding micro-
phone accordingly.
5) Use the control BASS (5) to adjust the
desired strength of the low frequencies
radiated by the subwoofer module.
6) The green indicator SIGNAL (10) lights up
when a specific signal level has been
reached. When the signal level is too high,
the limiter will reduce the level to protect the
speakers: In this case, the red indicator LIM-
IT will light up. To retain the original dynam-
ic range of the signal, reduce the volume by
means of the appropriate control (1 – 4) un-
til the indicator LIMIT extinguishes.
7) Use the appropriate control (6 – 9) to adjust
the sound of the individual input signals.
— The controls CONTOUR (6, 9) for the in-
puts LINE IN and AUX IN define the lev-
el of the aurally compensated sound
correction. The correction will boost the
high frequencies and the low frequen-
cies. The boost level depends on the po-
sition of the control LINE (1) or AUX (4).
