	NOTE: The impedance issue affects the {{Model I}} and {{Model II}}. The {{Classic}} uses separate amplifiers for the top and bottom sections of the {{L1 CR}}. So the rationale for using a cable (or just a connector) into the bass line out may be different, it is still worth considering. You may also get decent results using the R1 Remote or {{T1}} to turn down the bass output.		NOTE: The impedance issue affects the {{Model I}} and {{Model II}}.

	~~=== Half Stack Not Recommended for Small Gigs ===~~
	Running only the lower section of the Line Array is a workaround when there isn't enough ceiling clearance to use both sections. For small gigs, turn down the volume on the L1 Pro32, don't run without the top section of the array because
	* You'll need to elevate the system so the array is at ear level for the audience. Otherwise, the sound will be muffled
	* You will reduce your projection over distance. The sound will drop off more over distance.
	* You may need to turn up the volume louder than if you were using the full array. As a result, you increase the likelihood of feedback.

			;Note - if you are using a B2 connected directly to your L1® Model II Power Stand
			You can still run your system with only the lower half of the Cylindrical Radiator® but plugging in a ¼ inch jack cable to the Bass Line Out will not affect the output to the B2. You will likely want to set the B2 Bass Level switch to the (-) minus position, and turn down the bass at the source ({{T1}} or mixer).
