Installation and cabinet guidance
Use the bracket and dimension drawing to plan the mounting position. Allow clearance for rotation, cable access and the full fitting; secure it to a surface suitable for the 2.8 kg speaker.
Set the selector for the amplifier output before connecting. Use one of the stated transformer taps for a 100 V line, or the 8 Ω setting for a compatible low-impedance amplifier. Never connect a 100 V line with the selector at 8 Ω.
Connect through the screw terminals, maintaining polarity. Protect the cable joint and leave a service loop that does not pull on the terminals.
For outdoor fitting, preserve the housing seals and provide weather protection for the complete connection. IP54 does not make the speaker suitable for immersion.
