Speaker Installation
If the power level is known, then select it using the front-mounted selector switch
prior to installing the speaker. See section Selecting Power Levels.
Speaker Grille Removal
Insert a pocket knife blade between the grille and the
1
bezel about a /4" deep and then gently pry the grille
upwards. Do this in multiple places around the circum-
ference of the grille to free the grille.
Speaker Grille Installation
The speaker grilles fit tightly! Make sure the tap set-
tings are correct prior to installing grille. Push the
speaker grille in until it can go no further. Then, slap
around the edge of the grille to seat the grille. The
grille is properly seated when it is flush with the edge
of the bezel.
Suspension Cable Assembly
1. Screw nuts onto the eye bolts all the way to
the flange.
2. Screw in eye bolts with captured cable sec-

tions in to the three suspension points.
Do not overtighten.
3. Snap loops of free end of cable sections into
quick-snap clip.
4. Connect quick-snap clip to drop cable. The
supplied cable kit is suitable for use as the
drop cable.
Safety Cable
The speaker includes a safety cable suspension
point for extra protection.The included cable kit
must be used as a safety cable. Refer to instruc-
tions with cable kits for proper use.
IMPORTANT
The anchor point and any hardware used
to anchor the speaker must be able to
support the speaker’s weight under all
conditions. IFYOU ARE NOT SURE OF
THE PROPER CAPACITY OF THESE
ITEMS TO USE, CONSULT A STRUCTUR-
AL ENGINEER. Mount only one speaker
per supplied quick-snap clip.

Speaker Wiring
Wiring is terminated at a snap-lock input con-
nector. There are two positive and two nega-
tive terminals to accommodate daisy chaining
of speakers in a system. All wiring should be
done prior to installation and then plugged
into the rear of the speaker.
Daisy Chaining
The speaker’s snap-lock input connector
allows for easy daisy chaining of speakers by
providing a second terminal of each polarity.
Refer to the figures for proper wiring for daisy
chaining of terminals.
Speaker Phasing
Keep the same polarity terminals wired together to ensure correct phasing. In order
to provide the best possible sound, all of the speakers in a system need to be
pushing out and pulling in at the same time.
If the connections to one speaker in a system are reversed from the others, that
speaker’s movement will be out of sync with the other speakers.This will result in a
loss of low frequency response and will effect the overall performance of the
system.

Selecting Power Levels
The front-mounted selector switch is used to
set the appropriate power level or impedance
for your system. Using a small flat-blade screw-
driver, turn the knob until the slot points to the
power level you require.
70V/100V Systems
Both power setting scales for 70V and 100V sys-
tems are labeled on the speakers. On the 100V
scale, the last position clockwise is marked with
a
(not available) symbol. Do not use this posi-
tion in 100V systems.
16Ω Systems
The fully counterclockwise position of the setting switch is the 16-ohm position.This
setting is suitable for use with low-impedance amplifiers that typically support 4- or
8-ohm speakers.The speaker’s higher,16-ohm impedance makes it easier to combine
multiple speakers into series - parallel networks while keeping the total system
impedance at a level suitable for low-impedance amplifiers.
