Installation and cabinet guidance

Use the dimension drawing to allow for the 210 mm horn mouth, full body length and bracket movement. Fix the stainless-steel bracket securely and aim the horn at the intended listening area.

With the amplifier off, select a tap for the actual line voltage, or select 8 Ω for a compatible low-impedance amplifier. The 70 V and 100 V power values differ. Never feed a constant-voltage line into the 8 Ω setting.

Keep the cable joint protected against the installation environment and support the lead independently of the speaker. Preserve the enclosure and cable-entry seals for the IP66 installation.
