Installation
Place the speaker on a flat surface.
Re move the am pli fi er from the rear of
the speaker cab i net by loos en ing the
six M4 screws at the edge of the longer
sides. Take special care not to stress the

side by side on a flat surface.
Connect the rack adapter cables (see

Place the amplifier on the rack adapter
chassis and fix it with six M4 screws

The rack adapter can now be mounted
into a stand ard 19 inch rack. The adapter
chassis height is 12 U, but a well ven-
tilated free space of at least 1 U (4,45
cm) is required above and below to
ensure adequate cooling, making the
total space requirement of the assembly
14 U. Please notice that Speakon cable
con nec tors require additional 100 mm (4
inches
) of space behind the amplifier.
Attach the speak er cable adapt er to the
speaker box with four 4 x 12 mm screws
