Selection and Settings of Processors and Amplifiers In order to take full advantage of the CXS performance, make sure to adjust the cut-off and equalizer (EQ) using a processor/DSP built-in amplifier. When selecting an amplifier, the amplifier should have a similar program (PGM) wattage rating to the speaker. For example, since the PGM rating of the CXS18XLF is 1000 W, an amplifier of 800 W to 1250 W (0.8 to 1.25 times that of 1000 W) should be selected. However, when a speaker can be protected properly by a limiter, amplifiers with more power can be used together. Visit the CXS product page of the Yamaha Pro Audio global website for details on the recommended models of processors and amplifiers, and EQ settings. Basic Setting Example  This system is connected by two independent cables from a 2-channel amplifier to a CXS and a full-range speaker. CZR series (full-range speaker) From amplifier 1+/1-: FULL RANGE 2-channel amplifier 1+/1-: SUBWOOFER CXS  This system is connected by a single cable from the outputs of a 2-channel amplifier, using the [OUTPUT] jack. The [OUTPUT] jack of the CXS receives the signals via 2+/2- of the [INPUT/PARALELL] jack and routes them to 1+/1- for output. Using the [OUTPUT] jack of the CXS along with a 4-pole speakON cable, you can connect an amplifier to the CXS with a single cable. CZR series (full-range speaker) To full-range speaker From amplifier 1+/1-: FULL RANGE 2+/2-: FULL RANGE OUTPUT 2-channel amplifier 1+/1-: SUBWOOFER 4-pole speakON cable CXS Routes the signals received via 2+/2- to 1+/1- for output. 8 CXS series Owner's Manual
