On the relatively rare occasion where you might need to connect the output from one PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model I to another PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model I here are some ways to approach it.

Two PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model Is for one Vocal

You can

  • Run your microphone into the first L1™ PS1 Powerstand (let's say - Channel 1).
  • In Channel 1 insert an XLR cable from the Channel 1 Line Out
  • At the other end of the cable connect a Pad. The people-at-Bose usually recommend a -20 dBu pad. Some owners have reported success with a -10 dBu pad.
  • Connect the Pad to the second PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model I Channel 1 or 2.
  • On the first PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model I, set the input trim appropriately.
  • Choose the best preset for your microphone.
  • On the second PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model I, the input trim should be similar to what you set on the first one, but check the trim o/l light for a solid green light (occasional red flickers are okay).
  • On the second PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model I, use the same preset as you used for the first one.

Two PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model Is for Mono Tracks (or one side of stereo pair)

In this example, we are using Channel 2 so that you leave Channel 1 available for another input like a vocal.

You can

  • Run your input into the first L1™ PS1 Powerstand (let's say - Channel 2).
  • In Channel 2 insert an XLR cable from the Channel 2 Line Out
  • At the other end of the cable connect a Pad. The people-at-Bose usually recommend a -20 dBu pad. Some owners have reported success with a -10 dBu pad.
  • Connect the Pad to the second PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model I Channel 2.
  • On the first PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model I, set the input trim appropriately.
  • Choose the best preset for your microphone.
  • On the second PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model I, the input trim should be similar to what you set on the first one, but check the trim o/l light for a solid green light (occasional red flickers are okay).
  • On the second PS1 Power Stand (Classic) / Model I, use the same preset as you used for the first one.
  • For prerecored music or tracks or keyboards you want B1 Bass Modules as close together as possible, and the L1™s close together -or- at least 20 feet apart.
