I. DESCRIPTION
The SPA-3 is a stereo preci-
sion attenuator accessory
for use with DataPort-
equipped QSC amplifiers. It
mounts directly to the back
of two-channel CX, DCA, and
PL2 models, but it can be
used with the others
(PowerLight, ISA, and four-
channel CX or DCA
amplifers) by using a
DataPort cable and a re-
mote mounting rack. Ampli-
fiers from the ISA series
cannot power the SPA-3, so
it requires a 15-volt exter-
nal DC power supply when
used with one of them.
