COMBO / DISTROThe COMBO/DISTRO has an NL4 that sends Pin 1+,1- to Pin 1+,1- on an NL4 and a parallel connected NL2/Combo connector. Then Pin 2+,2- is sent to Pin 1+,1- on an NL4 and a parallel connected NL2/Combo connector. Essentially a “Y” connection to each set of contacts on an NL4 connector.
COMBO IIThe COMBO II adaptor box (similar to the Distro) breaks out an NL8 into four (4) NL2/combo connectors. Each of the NL2/combo connector contacts are connected to each of the four (4) contact pairs on the NL8 connector.
Features: The convenience of this adaptor box over the Distro is the flexibility of using NL4, NL2 or the traditional ¼” speaker cables to hook up your full range speaker cabinets.
DISTROThis is a break-out box that connects the first two contacts (pin 1+, 1-) of an NL4 connector to the first two contacts (pin 1+, 1-) of an NL4 and the other two contacts of the first NL4 connector (pin 2+, 2-) and connects them to the first two contacts (pin 1+, 1-) of a second NL4 connector.� ~ This has the same wiring as a COMBO that uses all NL2/Combo connectors. ~ Applications: This enables two (2) full range speakers to be connected to a single four (4) conductor speaker cable.
DISTRO +The Distro + is the same as the Distro II with the addition of a parallel connected NL8 providing pass through or daisy connectivity to continue on with an NL8 cable.
DISTRO + / MATRIX +The DISTRO + / MATRIX + contains a DISTRO + with the addition of connections to Pins 2+ & 2- on the first two NL4’s providing a matrix for two Bi-amp outputs from the NL8. The two NL4’s that are wired as a MATRIX have their Pin 1+, 1- connected to Pins 1 and 3 already to provide 4 full range speaker taps off of an NL8 cable. Therefore, the two NL4’s on the output side have their Pin 1+, 1- connected to pin 2 & Pin 4 of the NL8 connectors to complete the 4 DISTRO outputs.
DISTRO / MATRIXA DISTRO / MATRIX is equivalent to a pair of DISTRO’s in the same box, each of which are connected to one half of an NL8 connector. If nothing is connected to the NL8 you could use the DISTRO / MATRIX as two independent DISTRO’s.
DISTRO IIDISTRO II
The Distro II is an adaptor box that breaks-out an NL8 into four (4) NL4’s. Each of the NL8 contact pairs connect to only Pin 1+, 1- of each of the four (4) NL4 connectors. This means that only full range speakers using pins 1+ and 1- can effectively be connect to the NL4’s.
MATRIXThe MATRIX is an adaptor box that breaks out an NL8 into two (2) NL4’s. The first half of the NL8 connector (Pins 1+, 1-, 2+, 2-) connect to the same pins on the first NL4 connector. The second half of the NL8 (Pins 3+, 3-, 4+, 4-) connect respectively to Pin 1+, 1-, 2+, 2- of the second NL4.
MATRIX +The Matrix + is the same as the Matrix with the addition of a parallel connected NL8 providing pass through or daisy connectivity to continue on with an NL8 cable.
MATRIX IIThe MATRIX II is an NL8 break out to a pair of parallel connected NL4’s. Each half of the NL8 has a parallel connected pair of NL4’s. This has the same pin wiring as a MATRIX with the convenience of an additional, second NL4 parallel connected to each of the NL4’s of a standard MATRIX.
OCTOThe OCTO is a simple NL8 ‘Y’ Splitter. Three (3) NL8’s parallel connected together.
DISTRO (SKU: 10042)This is a break-out box that connects the first two contacts (pin 1+, 1-) of an NL4 connector to the first two contacts (pin 1+, 1-) of an NL4 and the other two contacts of the first NL4 connector (pin 2+, 2-) and connects them to the first two contacts (pin 1+, 1-) of a second NL4 connector.� ~ This has the same wiring as a COMBO that uses all NL2/Combo connectors. ~ Applications: This enables two (2) full range speakers to be connected to a single four (4) conductor speaker cable.
MATRIX (SKU: 10082)The MATRIX is an adaptor box that breaks out an NL8 into two (2) NL4’s. The first half of the NL8 connector (Pins 1+, 1-, 2+, 2-) connect to the same pins on the first NL4 connector. The second half of the NL8 (Pins 3+, 3-, 4+, 4-) connect respectively to Pin 1+, 1-, 2+, 2- of the second NL4.
