When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over. 11.Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped. WARNING — To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture. 12.Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the permissible noise level exposures shown in the following chart. According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure levels use hearing protectors while the equipment is in operation. Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when operating the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if exposure is in excess of the limits set forth here: Duration, per Sound Level dBA, Typical Example day in hours Slow Response 8 6 4 3 2 1.5 1 0.5 0.25 or less 90 92 95 97 100 102 105 110 115 Duo in small club Subway Train Very loud classical music Fooyoung screaming at desTROYer about deadlines Loudest parts at a rock concert Correct Disposal of this product: This symbol indicates that this product should not be disposed of with your household waste, according to the WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC) and your national law.

The hook-up diagrams show some typical setups. • Never listen to loud music for prolonged periods. Please see the Safety Instructions on page 2 for information on hearing protection. This icon marks information that is critically important or unique to the loudspeaker. For your own good, read and remember them. This icon leads you to in-depth explanations of features and practical tips. They usually have some valuable nuggets of information. Appendix A is a section on troubleshooting and repair. Appendix B is a section on connectors. Appendix C shows the technical specifications. Getting Started The following steps will help you set up your loudspeakers quickly. 1. Make all initial connections with the power switches OFF on all equipment. Make sure the master volume, level, or gain controls are all the way down. 2. Connect the line-level outputs from your mixing console (or other signal source) to the inputs of your power amplifier. 3. Connect the “Speaker Output” from your power amplifier (or powered mixer) to the INPUT connector on the S500 Series speaker (1/4" or NL4 jack). 4. If you are using the S518S subwoofer with one of the full-range loudspeakers, connect the 1/4" or NL4 THRU to the subwoofer’s input. 5. Turn on your mixing console (or other signal source). 6. Turn on the amplifier. Turn up its volume or gain control(s) as recommended by the manufacturer. 7. Start the signal source, whether it be speaking into a microphone or starting a CD player. Adjust the volume controls on the mixer (or other signal source) for normal operation. 4 S500 Series Loudspeakers • When you shut down your equipment, turn off the amplifiers first to prevent thumps and other noises generated by any upstream equipment from coming out of the speakers. When powering up, turn on the amplifiers last. • Save the shipping boxes and packing materials! You may need them someday. Besides, your cat will love playing in them and jumping out at you unexpectedly. Remember to pretend like you are surprised! • Save your sales receipt in a safe place. • Record the serial numbers in the spaces provided on page 2, along with where and when you bought them.

ProFX22 Mixer Mackie S518S plays the Low frequencies The S512’s may be used with the S518S subwoofers to create an incredibly powerful system. Here, the left and right line-level outputs from a mixer feed the inputs of a power amplifier. The speaker outputs of the power amplifier feed the inputs of two Mackie S512 loudspeakers. Their respective THRU jacks feed the inputs of a pair of Mackie S518S subwoofers, whose internal low-pass filter allows the subwoofers to reproduce only the lowest frequencies. The S512’s may be pole-mounted on top of the S518S subwoofers, as displayed. 6 S500 Series Loudspeakers The S500 Series loudspeakers are designed to sit on the floor or stage. The S512 and S515 may also be polemounted via the built-in socket on the bottom of the cabinet. Be sure the pole is capable of supporting the weight of the loudspeaker. The S525 and S518S are NOT designed to be pole-mounted. WARNING: These cabinets have no rigging points and are not suitable for rigging. NEVER attempt to suspend any S500 Series loudspeaker by its handles. As with any loudspeakers, protect them from moisture. If you are setting them up outdoors, make sure they are under cover if you expect rain. Room Acoustics The S500 Series loudspeakers are designed to sound as neutral as possible. However, room acoustics play a crucial role in the overall performance of a sound system. Here are some placement tips to get the best performance from the S500 Series loudspeakers: • Avoid placing loudspeakers in the corners of a room. This increases the low-frequency output and can cause the sound to be muddy and indistinct. • Highly reverberant rooms, like many gymnasiums and auditoriums, are a nightmare for sound system intelligibility. Multiple reflections off the hard walls, ceiling and floor play havoc with the sound. Depending on the situation, you may be able to take some steps to minimize the reflections, such as putting carpet on the floors, closing draperies to cover large glass windows, or hanging tapestries or other materials on the walls to absorb some of the sound. However, in most cases, these remedies are not possible or practical. So what do you do? Making the sound system louder generally doesn’t work because the reflections become louder, too. The best approach is to provide as much direct sound coverage to the audience as possible.. The farther away you are from the loudspeaker, the more prominent will be the reflected sound. Use more speakers strategically placed so they are closer to the back of the audience. If the distance between the front and back speakers is more than 100 feet, you should be able to use a delay processor to time-align the sound. Since sound travels about one foot per millisecond, it takes 1/10 of a second to travel 100 feet. Owner’s Manual Placement • Avoid placing loudspeakers against a wall. This, too, increases the low-frequency output, though not as much as corner placement. However, if you do need to reinforce the low frequencies, this is a good way to do it. • Avoid placing the loudspeakers directly on a hollow stage floor. A hollow stage can resonate at certain frequencies, causing peaks and dips in the frequency response of the room. It is better to place the loudspeakers on a sturdy table or tripod stands. • Position the loudspeakers so the high-frequency drivers are a foot or more above ear level for the audience. (Make allowances for a standing / dancing-in-the-aisles audience). High frequencies are highly directional and tend to be absorbed much easier than lower frequencies. By providing direct line-of-sight from the loudspeakers to the audience, you increase the overall brightness and intelligibility of the sound system. Owner’s Manual 7 S500 Series Loudspeakers Protection A protection circuit is built into the S512, S515 and S525 to protect their high-frequency drivers from excessive power. When tripped, the protection circuit substantially reduces the power to the HF driver. After the driver cools to a safe operating temperature, the protection circuit resets and normal operation resumes. However, if the protection circuit senses excessive power, it will trip again. In this case, it is necessary to reduce the power to the loudspeaker by either turning down the gain controls on the power amplifier or turning down the master volume control on the mixer or other sound source. CAUTION: The protection circuit is designed to protect the HF driver under reasonable and sensible conditions. Should you choose to ignore the warning signs (i.e., frequent clip LED indications on the mixer or power amplifier, excessive distortion), you can still damage the drivers in the S500 Series loudspeakers by overdriving them past their recommended amplifier power-handling ratings, or past the point of amplifier clipping. Such damage is beyond the scope of the warranty. Recommended Power Ratings • S512: 500 watts into 8 ohms (250 watts rms x 2) • S515: 600 watts into 8 ohms (300 watts rms x 2) • S525: 1200 watts into 8 ohms (600 watts rms x 2) • S518S: 900 watts into 8 ohms (450 watts rms x 2) Preventing Loudspeaker Damage Speaking of clipping, this is likely the number one cause of damage to loudspeakers. Clipping occurs when the signal at the output of any device in the system (not just the amplifier) reaches its maximum level. The input signal to the device may continue to increase, but the output simply stops, and is characterized by a “flattop” appearance to the waveform. Normal Sine Wave Signal Clipped Sine Wave Signal Amplifier Power The S500 Series loudspeakers have three powerhandling numbers: continuous, program and peak. So how much power do you really need to drive these loudspeakers? The answer to that question depends on what type of program material you are running through the system and how loud it needs to be. Some audio signals have lots of momentary peaks whose amplitudes extend far above the average overall level of the program. Percussion instruments are a good example of this. Other types of signals, like highly compressed rock music, have a higher average signal level with fewer peaks. Speech reinforcement requires less power overall, but involves large moment-tomoment variations in level. Assuming you want to use the full capability of the loudspeaker, and the program contains at least some momentary peaks, we recommend that you use an amplifier that is rated at twice the continuous power rating of the loudspeaker (into 8 ohms). For the S512 loudspeakers, this would be 250 watts x 2 = 500 watts per channel into 8 ohms. This ensures that the amplifier can reproduce peaks that are 6 dB higher than the continuous (rms) power-handling rating before clipping occurs. 8 S500 Series Loudspeakers Clipping interrupts the motion of the transducer, creating distortion and excessive heat in the driver, which can damage it over time. Some folks think that if they use a power amplifier whose power rating is below the maximum powerhandling rating of the loudspeaker, then they can’t possibly damage the loudspeaker. But if the amplifier is driven into clipping, even a lower power amplifier can damage the loudspeaker. The bottom line is that to prevent damage to the loudspeakers, you must have a properly operating sound system. Proper operation of a sound system includes being aware of types of audio signals being reproduced, controlling the output levels accordingly, and operating all the devices in the system so that no clipping occurs within the signal chain. If you think your Mackie product has a problem, please check out the following troubleshooting tips and do your best to confirm the problem. Visit the Support section of our website (www.mackie.com) to get some ideas or contact our technical support heroes. You may find the answer to the problem without having to send your Mackie product away. Troubleshooting No Sound • Are the level controls on the mixer or amplifier turned all the way down? Follow the procedures in “Getting Started” section on page 4 to verify that all of the volume controls in the system are properly adjusted. • Is the signal source working (and making union scale)? Poor bass performance • Check the polarity of the connections between the amplifier and the loudspeakers. You may have your positive and negative connections reversed at one end of one cable. Bad Sound • Is the input connector plugged completely into the jack? Make sure it is plugged all the way in. • Is it loud and distorted? Reduce the signal level at the mixer. • If possible, listen to the signal source with headphones plugged into the preamp stage. If it sounds bad there, it’s not the loudspeaker. One side is way louder than the other! • Too much bass or not enough bass? Move around the room and see if the bass response changes. It’s possible your listening position coincides with a room mode where the low frequencies either become exaggerated or nulled. If so, try moving the loudspeakers to a different position, or moving your listening position. • Are the level controls set the same for both channels on the mixer and amplifier? Care and Maintenance • Are all the connections good and sound? Make sure all of the connecting cables are in good repair and securely connected at both ends. • Check the pan control on the signal source. It may be turned too far to one side. If you’re using a stereo signal source, it may be delivering an out-of-balance stereo signal. • Try switching sides: Turn off the amp, swap the speaker cables at the amp and turn the amp back on. If the same side is still louder, the problem is with your speaker cabling or the loudspeakers. If the other side is louder now, the problem is with the mixer, the loudspeaker processor, the amp, or the line-level cabling. Owner’s Manual Appendix A: Service Information Your Mackie loudspeakers will provide many years of reliable service if you follow these simple guidelines: • Avoid exposing the loudspeakers to moisture. If they are set up outdoors, be sure they are under cover if you expect rain. • Avoid exposure to extreme cold (below freezing temperatures). If you must operate the loudspeakers in a cold environment, warm up the voice coils slowly by sending a low-level signal through them for about 15 minutes prior to high-power operation. • Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to clean the cabinets. Avoid getting moisture into any of the openings of the cabinet, particularly where the drivers are located.

SLEEVE TIP TIP TIP SLEEVE 1/4" TS Connector Sleeve = Cold (–) Tip = Hot (+) NL4 Appendix B: Connections These connectors are designed to handle the higher currents produced by amplifiers and have a locking feature to prevent accidental disconnections. Simply line up the tabs on the plug with the jack on the S500 Series loudspeaker, push it in and rotate it clockwise 1/4 turn to lock it in place. The S500 Series loudspeakers have 1/4" and NL4 input and thru connectors. The connectors are wired in parallel, so use only one of the input connectors. 1– 1+ COLD Normally, one would use only one thru connector, but it is possible to use both thru connectors. Keep in mind that all of the speakers are connected in parallel through these connectors, so you want to be sure not to go below the minimum impedance requirement of the amplifier. Use heavy gauge, stranded wire for connecting a speaker to the output of a power amplifier. Do not use coaxial cable like a guitar cord to make speaker connections. They are not designed to handle the high currents produced by a power amplifier and can overheat. As the distance between the amplifier and speaker increases, so should the thickness of the wire. Speaker wire has resistance, and when electricity passes through a resistor, power is lost. The thicker the wire, the less the resistance it offers, and the more power actually gets to the speaker. 10 SLEEVE S500 Series Loudspeakers HOT 1– 1+ 2+ 2– NL4 Connector Pin 1 – = Cold (–) Pin 1 + = Hot (+) Pin 2 – = No Connection Pin 2 + = No Connection S512 S515 System System Type: Two-way, full-range loudspeaker Type: Two-way, full-range loudspeaker Frequency Range (–10 dB): 49 Hz – 18 kHz Frequency Range (–10 dB): 47 Hz – 18 kHz Horizontal Coverage Angle: 90˚ Horizontal Coverage Angle: 90˚ Vertical Coverage Angle: 50˚ Vertical Coverage Angle: 50˚ Sensitivity (1W @ 1m): 99.9 dB SPL Sensitivity (1W @ 1m): 101.1 dB SPL 8 ohms Nominal Impedance: Nominal Impedance: Power Handling: 250 watts continuous 500 watts program 1000 watts peak Crossover Frequency: 3600 Hz Transducers Low Frequency: Power Handling: 8 ohms 300 watts continuous 600 watts program 1200 watts peak Crossover Frequency: 3400 Hz Transducers 12" / 305 mm woofer, vented High Frequency: 1" / 25 mm tweeter Physical Low Frequency: 15" / 381 mm woofer, vented High Frequency: 1" / 25 mm tweeter Physical Input Connectors: Two 1/4" TS jacks Two NL4 jacks, paralleled Input Connectors: Two 1/4" TS jacks Two NL4 jacks, paralleled Enclosure: Wood with textured black PVC vinyl covering Enclosure: Wood with textured black PVC vinyl covering Dimensions Dimensions Height: 25.6 in / 650 mm Height: 28.1 in / 714 mm Width: 17.8 in / 452 mm Width: 17.8 in / 452 mm Depth: 15.6 in / 396 mm Depth: 15.6 in / 396 mm Weight: 49 lb / 22 kg Weight: 51 lb / 23 kg Mounting:Pole-mountable Mounting:Pole-mountable S512 Dimensions S515 Dimensions 17.8 in / 452 mm 17.8 in / 452 mm 25.6 in / 650 mm Owner’s Manual Appendix C: S500 Series Specifications 28.1 in / 714 mm 15.6 in / 396 mm 13.8 in / 351 mm 15.6 in / 396 mm 13.8 in / 351 mm Owner’s Manual 11 S500 Series Loudspeakers S525 S518S System System Type: Two-way, full-range loudspeaker Type: Subwoofer Frequency Range (–10 dB): 51 Hz – 18 kHz Frequency Range (–10 dB): 37 Hz – 220 Hz Horizontal Coverage Angle: 90˚ Sensitivity (1W @ 1m): 98.3 dB SPL Vertical Coverage Angle: 50˚ Nominal Impedance: 8 ohms Sensitivity (1W @ 1m): 102.9 dB SPL Nominal Impedance: 8 ohms Power Handling: 600 watts continuous 1200 watts program 2400 watts peak Crossover Frequency: 450 watts continuous 900 watts program 1800 watts peak Internal Low Pass Filter: 120 Hz, 12 dB/octave 2800 Hz Transducers Low Frequency: Power Handling: Transducers Two 15" / 381 mm woofers, vented High Frequency: Low Frequency: 18" / 457 mm woofer, vented 1" / 25 mm tweeter Physical Physical Input Connectors: Two 1/4" TS jacks Two NL4 jacks, paralleled Input Connectors: Enclosure: Wood with textured black PVC vinyl covering Enclosure: Two 1/4" TS jacks Two NL4 jacks, paralleled Wood with durable black paint Dimensions Dimensions Height: 23.9 in / 607 mm Height: 43.9 in / 1115 mm Width: 20.3 in / 516 mm Width: 16.8 in / 427 mm Depth: 21.3 in / 541 mm Depth: 15.6 in / 396 mm Weight: Weight: 75 lb / 34 kg S525 Dimensions 70 lb / 32 kg Mounting: Pole-mount on top S518S Dimensions 20.3 in / 516 mm 16.8 in / 427 mm 21.3 in / 541 mm 43.9 in / 1115 mm 23.9 in / 607 mm 15.6 in / 396 mm 13.3 in / 338 mm 15.5 in / 394 mm LOUD Technologies Inc. is always striving to improve our products by incorporating new and improved materials, components, and manufacturing methods.
