Thank you for choosing TOPP PRO. The new TOPP PRO MUSIC GEAR cabinets have been
designed to provide a cost effective high grade solution while maintainig high quality cabinet
construction and optimum components.
Our Professional Audio Products are designed and tested by a highly qualified engineering team
with more than 20 years of experience. Great care is placed in delivering products with excellent
performance, specifications and dependable reliability. Also great emphasis is placed in creating
and bringing to market products that can fill multiple applications and also offer customers
exceptional value.
Every TOPP PRO audio product is strictly tested and complied to very strict standards.
Speakers should be placed in a position that allows for unobstructed sound projection. In many
instances it is beneficial for speakers to elevate on tripod stands to achieve maximum dispersion
and reach. Consider TOPP PRO speaker stand or equivalent to raise speakers.
Using quality cables ensure best possible sound. Consider using TOPP PRO 16 or 14 gauge
cables or equivalent.
For best results match the speakers to a good amplifier that matches the wattage and
impedance of your speakers. Proper amplification power results in good quality audio and
longer component life. Check out.
Avoid pointing microphone directly at an amplified speaker otherwise could cause feedback
possible damaging speaker components and your hearing.

Quick Start
When mounting a speaker onto any stand, always ensure that the stand is on a flat, level
sur-face, with the legs fully extended. Be sure to check that the maximum load weight for the
stands is greater than the weight of the ARRAY SYSTEMS loudspeaker. Never use a stand with a
maximum load weight lower than the speaker. Do not attempt to mout more than one speaker
on a stand at one time.
The ARRAY SYSTEMS loudspeakers are heavy. It is recommended that a second person to help
place the cabinet on a stand.
When the speaker is placed on a stand, always check the integrity and center of gravity of the
system If the speaker can be tipped easily, or the pole is swaying, it is recommended that you
lower the height of the stand. Position the stand and route cables so that the performers and the
audience cannot tip over or trip on the system.
