What is the difference between all the frequencies? N1 to N4? I just need to use as a fitness instructor. Also, Does this system hook up to speakers?

I am not sure about the frequency specs. I have mine hooked up to an amp at a church and don't think it would work directly to speakers. Hope that helps.

In North America there are 4 possible frequencies that you can use. N1 - N4. You cannot have more than one of each so if you want more than one mic you must use a different number. The mic will hook up to a speaker if it has a mic input and is a powered speaker.

There are actually five frequencies, a seperate one for each microphone in the same venue. If you are only using one microphone, it doesn't matter which one you use. This will hook up to a powered speaker, but will need an amplifier for an unpowered speaker.

The frequencies are four options. The frequencies are for you to utilize more than one microphone. It will work for what you need it for as a fitness instructor. It will hook up to speaker as long as you have a pa system that you can connect the receiver for the system.

It depends on how long your run is. There is a pretty good amount that comes in a single bundle. My house was prewired, so I didn't need to use it. You may want to get a spool from a local store and only open it if you end up needing it. Then you can return it easily. I hope that was helpful. By the way, I am very pleased with the system. Setup was easy and the automatic speaker setup wizard didn't need tweaking after it was done. I think the only thing I changed was the crossover frequency. I like to feel the bass...

Those are the different channels... So if u have three mics working together 1 would be n1 second n3 and the third n4. This is so you will not have crossed frequencies.

I run them with the D1 all the way up. I set the speaker volume quite loud when the computer is turned all the way up and then use the computer volume control to adjust the overall sound. This is not to say that other systems may not work as well or better. One could argue that the best setting is computer and D1 all the way up and use the speaker controls to adjust volume, but I find this inconvenient given the location of the computer and speakers in my office.

I can respond on the sound quality part... It says in the owners manual to have the unit volume all the way up and then tune up your music source. I use it for my Zumba (R) classes and sounds great at a higher volume level. I love it!

Hi John, I am using this as a bedroom system and am powering a pair of Paradigm MK5 SE speakers (small towers) with it. I am running it through a DAC and just using a extra iPod as the source. It fills the large bedroom with beautiful sound and stout bass. You will want to make sure that your speakers have a relatively high sensitivity number - probably 87 or higher for best results. It really helps to smooth out the sound from a digital input. My father-in-law was so impressed with the sound, he just got one to power his Martin Logan bookshelf's. I have not tried to use it as a preamp, so can not comment on that. Overall, it's a great little piece for the price.

I actually had both sets. First the 900mhz, then upgraded to the 2.4GHz. THe 900 is ok for indoor use with a couple speakers in one room. Note that with two speakers you will not have stereo sound, just two speakers playing mono. The 2.4 ones are really much better. The sound quality is way better, especially if you like to crank them up at all. Two will fill a normal back yard well and are more than you will need inside. They can operate independently as mono speakers (we sometimes have one inside and one on the patio) or as a stereo set for when you have them both together. Unless you actually cannot afford the price difference, go with the 2.4s.. Just know that the effective range seems to be more like 80-90 feet, at least with the transmitter inside and the speakers out, not 150.

This is a bit like asking "how do you cook?" There us no one best way to hook up a sub... you need to divide the frequency of the signal into the frequency range your speaker responds to. There are many ways to do this... a crossover network can split the input (your music) into "sub" and "everything else" before the amplifiers and use separate amps for the subs and everything else... but thus is only one solution. Tell us what equipment you are trying to use and perhaps you will get a more useful response.

The receiver has specific fittings input - for the speakers these are not universal plugs and are color -coded. so your speaker inputs may not fit. Also the anynet device may not work with another set of speakers because you adjust each speaker volume onscreen.

I'm not sure this will work with your system. You would have to call our Audio Dept. because we would have to special order your particular frequency. Thanks.

Big difference between bookshelf speaker and surround speaker! Other answers are quite correct, your other speakers and/or subwoofer should handle the lower frequencies. I like good low bass so I am using two DefTek subwoofers w/500 watt amplifiers driving a 15 inch speaker. I was using a pair of Kenwood surrounds just like these DefTeks w/dual radiating speaker array, but I wanted to get all the bass from those surrounds so I ran the surround speaker wires to these Yamaha YST-SW216BL Subwoofers from Amazon and then to the Kenwoods, wow, pumps out great low frequencies from surround channels in addition to the LFE from the subs.

Hi David: My unit is very quiet. To test the neutrality of sound I set the EQ sliders at 6db across the frequency spectrum. I then switched between the equalized setting and by passing the EQ entirely; compensating for volumes. I was unable to detect any difference in the sound. I cannot comment on the difference in the two units as I have only heard the older one. Good luck with your EQ hunt.Harry Harris

Hiya, this doesn't make sense entirely - the speaker is a passive speaker and will only produce the sound of what you send it. It has three speakers in it (Left-Center-Right) all in one cabinet, but it's not powered so it won't create two extra channels. Your 5.1 system will still be a 5.1 system. Well, assuming you have another 2 speakers and a sub....and a receiver.

I am running two rears off of one of these systems and it has worked really well. Looking at wireless receiver for the speaker system it only has hookups for two speakers...I guess you could double up and run four speakers but they would all just be the rears...if you wanted separate zones you would probably have to have more than one system...I don't know if they would interfere with each other of both systems were run from the same receiver. Hope this helps.

Hi David, this unit is as quiet as any EQ when putting it next to speakers. It shouldn't be a problem. As always, it depends on where it is and what kind of speaker, but under normal circumstances it wouldn't be a problem, assuming you're using the right cables etc... The 231 is a great eq, and this one that we're selling used works perfectly. The difference between the 231 and 231s is mostly cosmetic. We've compared them sonically and can't hear a difference. If you look at DBX's announcement of the S range from a couple years back, they don't point out any differences between the 231 and 231s, outside of cosmetics. If you buy this and it doesn't work in your application, we are easy to work with on returns.

I went through a steep and maybe incomplete learning curve when I wanted to add multiple speaker pairs to my setup but I do not believe you have to have speakers to all of the inputs for 8 ohm output. This switch is auto impedance matching. My system is 4 ohm amplifier and I've had 1, 2, 3 and 4 pairs of speakers connected at various times and have never had 6 pairs, the switch has worked great and I use it all the time when I am at home. One thing I would caution on is that while description says that you can use two sources at the same time I've found that you get bleeding from one source to the other side.

I purchased a polycom soundstation 2W and was very disappointed in the sound quality so I returned it. Instead I got a Konftel 300W and have been very pleased. Check with the manufacturer to see if there would be any problem with two unit.
