The PSW-2 can withstand continuous voltages up to Introduction 275 V and allows any combination of voltage to GND (i.e. Neutral-Hot-GND, Hot-Hot-GND). Continuous voltages higher than 275 V may damage the unit. The Meyer PSW-2 self-powered subwoofer contains The PSW-2 uses a NEMA L6-20P or IEC 309 male power independent amplifier and control electronics for two inlet and satisfies UL, CSA, and EC safety standards. 15” drivers in a compact enclosure. The PSW-2 has the following acoustical specific

Safety Issues Current Requirements Pay close attention to these important electrical and The PSW-2 presents a dynamic load to the AC mains safety issues. which causes the amount of current to fluctuate between quiet and loud operating levels. Since different types of cables and circuit breakers heat up (and trip) at varying rates, it is essential to understand the types of current ratings and how they correspond to circuit breaker and cable specifications. Use a power cord adapter to drive the P
