Guardian Audio B4 Owner's manual

  • Hello! I've read the Guardian Audio B4 4 TCC Channel Powered Mixer owner's manual and am ready to assist you with any questions you have about the device. This document covers the mixer's input options, EQ controls, speaker output, and additional features like reverb and effects loops. Feel free to ask me anything.
  • What is the minimum impedance for the speaker output?
    What is the input impedance of the XLR microphone input?
    Can I use both high and low impedance inputs simultaneously?
    What is the channel equalization range?
