Speaker Placement

Tilt Mechanism

Slip Cover and Shoulder Strap

Note that there are powerful magnets in the vicinity of the
recessed screws in the top of the Flex Cab. Do not place anything
on the top that will be damaged by the high magnetic field. Smart
phones, tablets, laptops, digital recorders, etc. should not be
placed on the top of the cabinet.

The omnidirectional low frequency output of our speaker cabinets
makes speaker placement relatively noncritical. You will easily be
heard all over the bandstand no matter where one or more arelocated.
However, best results are obtained when the cabinet is placed on the
floor. Putting the unit on a shelf or stand will reduce bass frequencies.
There may be circumstances where this is desirable. Feel free to
experiment to find the sound that is best for you.

In some settings, such as a hollow stage or small, “boomy” room, your
amp or enclosure will produce too much bass. One way to cut
unwanted bass output is to use the built in tilt back feature to lift the
front of the cabinet, reducing the coupling to the floor. To do this, pull
the stand into its forward position and set the combo in place on the
floor. The stand is spring loaded so when you pick up the unit, the
stand will spring back into its storage position. You may want to use
the tilt stand at all times in order to aim the high frequency output of the
speaker toward your ear so that you can better hear the amp.

The supplied slip cover is fitted to the Flex Cab. To install it, slip it over
the top of the cabinet and line up the holes in the cover with the handle
openings on the cabinet.

To use the shoulder strap to transport the cabinet, feed the strap
through the handle opening on both sides and clip the end to the D-
ring attached to the strap. The picture below illustrates how to attach
the strap. The strap can be used either with the slip cover in place or
not in place.
