Introduction
The dimensions of the smallest TWAUDiO installation sub let not assume such a perfor-
mance. The B10i, like it‘s B10 production brother, delivers tight, focused bass from a box
barely larger than a microwave oven. Its specifically developed long excursion 10“ cone dri-
ver with an uncompromising 3“ dual voice coil delivers usable frequency response down to
40 Hz. This makes the B10i a perfect match for restaurants, clubs and many other applica-
tions as main sub or discretely distributed as part of a larger system.
The B10i comes with i-series standard screw terminal connections at the rear with optional
speakON™ and cable gland available. Four recessed M10-threads allow multiple mounting
options via brackets or steel wires.

1. Safety | Intended use
The B10i loudspeaker was developed for use in professional sound systems. The loudspea-
ker may only be used by trained and qualified personnel.
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
NOTE
NOTE
Note the operating modes described in this operating manual. Other uses are not permis-
sible.
Damage caused by improper use is not covered by TWAMBO.
Please adhere to the following safety instructions to avoid risks when operating loudspeakers.
Loudspeakers generate an electromagnetic field. Persons with pacemakers are not permit-
ted to remain in the immediate vicinity of loudspeakers as the electromagnetic fields can
cause pacemakers to malfunction.
Ensure that the units are in a stable position and are firmly attached. A falling loudspeaker can
result in serious personal injury and property damage.
When using and assembling TW AUDiO loudspeakers, only use materials specified by
TW AUDiO. These tasks must be performed by qualified personnel. Adhere to the applicable
safety regulations.
When setting up loudspeakers, ensure that they are not exposed to the following ambient
conditions:
• Direct sunlight
• Humidity
• Jolting
• Dust
Keep away from the immediate vicinity of loudspeakers that are operated at high sound pres-
sure levels. These loudspeaker systems are capable of endangering your health. Sound levels
beginning as low as approximately 90dBSPL can lead to long-term hearing impairment.
Avoid:
• Feedback
• Distorted signals (clipping) and
• Peaks resulting from switching on devices, plugging in devices or unplugging devices during
operation.
Such signals can lead to loudspeaker overload and ultimately to loudspeaker failure.

WARNING
NOTE
NOTE
Ensure that the loudspeaker is not exposed to permanent thermal overloads. Thermal over-
loads may cause a fire and result in serious personal injury and property damage.
Note that TWAMBO does not provide a warranty for damage that can be attributed to this type
of overload and therefore cannot be held liable for any secondary damage.
A permanent magnetic field is present in the immediate vicinity of loudspeakers. Ensure that
objects which react sensitively to magnetic fields are not located in the immediate vicinity of
the loudspeaker. In particular, this applies to magnetic storage media, magnetic stripe cards
such as debit cards and CRT displays. A distance of approximately one meter is sufficient to
avoid damage.
Check loudspeakers and accessory parts regularly for visible wear. This is essential to ensure
continuing fault-free operation. Worn parts should be replaced immediately. Spare parts are
available from TWAUDiO.

3. Please note that once the countersunk screws are removed, water and moisture may
enter into the enclosure.
1. To remove the countersunk screws remove the texture paint by using a cutter knife. Avoid

size of TX50.
NOTE
WARNING
TW AUDiO recommends using only the accessories specified by TWAUDiO for securing and
mounting loudspeakers.
Make sure the speakers are securely fastened to prevent personal injury and property damage.
