Which preset should I select on the speaker?
The LD Systems Stinger 8a G3 has several easy-to-use presets. You can use "full range" if you use the speaker standalone. "SateLite" if you use the speaker in combination with subwoofers, "monitor" if it serves as an audio monitor and "flat" if you only use the speaker for speech applications.
Do I have to select 'line' or 'mic' at the settings on the speaker?
If you connect the speaker with an audio mixing desk, DJ Mixer or other line input, you can select "Line". If you plan to directly plug in a microphone, select "MIC". We always recommend the use of an Audiomixer or DJ Mixer.
