1. Safety Precautions
All the precautions, in particular the safety ones, must be read with special attention, as they
provide important information.
1. Loudspeaker lines (amplifier outputs) can have a sufficiently high voltage (i.e. 100V) to involve a risk of
electrocution: never install or connect this loudspeaker when the line is alive.
2. Make sure all connections have been made correctly and the loud speaker input voltage (in a constant voltage
system)or its impendence is suitable for the amplifier output.
3. Protect loudspeaker lines from damage; make sure they are positioned in a way that they cannot be stepped on
or crushed by objects.
4. Make sure that no objects or liquid can get into this product, as this may cause a short circuit.
5. Never attempt to carry out any operations, modifications or repairs that are not expressly described in this
manual. Contact your authorized service centre or qualified personnel should any of the following occur:
- The loudspeaker does not function (or works in an anomalous way); - The cable as been damaged;
- Objects or liquids have got into the unit; - The loud speaker has been damaged due to heavy impacts / fire.
6. Should the loudspeaker emit any strange odours or smoke, remove it from the line after having switched the
amplifier off.
7. Do not connect this product to any equipment or accessories not foreseen.For suspended installation, only use the
dedicated anchoring points and do not try to hang this loudspeaker by using elements that are unsuitable or not
specific for this purpose. Also check the suitability of the support surface to which the product is anchored (wall,
ceiling, structure, etc.), & the components used for attachment (screw anchors, screws, brackets not supplied by
Studiomaster Professional etc.), which must guarantee the security of the system/ installation over time, also
considering, for example, the mechanical vibrations normally generated by transducers.
8. Studiomaster Professional strongly recommends this product is only installed by professional qualified
installers (or specialized firms) who can ensure a correct installation and certify it according to the regulations in
force. The entire audio system must comply with the current standards & regulations regarding electrical systems.
9. There are numerous mechanical and electrical factors to be considered when installing a professional audio
system (in addition to those which are strictly acoustic such as sound pressure, angles of coverage, frequency
response, etc.)
10. HEARING LOSS
Exposure to high sound levels can cause permanent hearing loss. The acoustic pressure level that lead to hearing
loss is different from person to person & depends on the duration of exposure. To prevent potentially dangerous
exposure to high level of acoustic pressure, anyone who is exposed to these levels should use adequate protection
devices. When a transducer capable of producing high sound level is being used, it is therefore necessary to
wear ear plugs or protective earphones. See the technical specifications in the instruction manual for the
maximum sound pressure the loudspeaker is capable of producing.
11. To ensure a correct musical reproduction, loudspeaker phase is to be respected (loudspeakers are connected
respecting the amplifier polarity). This is important when loudspeakers are installed adjacent to one another, for
instance, in the same room.
12. To prevent inductive effects from causing hum, noise and a bad system working, loudspeaker lines should not be
laid together with other electric cables (main), microphone or line level signal cables connected to amplifier
inputs.
Before connecting and using this product, please read this instruction manual carefully and keep it on hand for future
reference. This manual should be considered an integral part of this product and must accompany it when it changes
ownership as a reference for correct installation and use as well as for the safety precautions.
