MOUNTING THE SPEAKER ON THE YOKE
The speakerʼs yoke allows the speaker to be slipped
onto it with the locking knobs attached. First, both
knobs need to be removed and the supplied rubber fric-
tion disks applied to the speaker enclosure where the
knobs clamp. Do not apply the friction disks directly to
the mounting knobs. Next, screw the knobs back onto
the enclosure about two turns and simply slide the knob
shafts down the slots in the yoke. Now tighten the
knobs making sure that the shoulder of the knob seats
properly through the large hole at the end of the yoke.
SOME FACTORS TO CONSIDER
Distance is not the only factor affecting sound intensity.
Also consider what adjacent surfaces may affect the sound (including but not limited to buildings,
walls, and overhangs). These structures may provide positive effects (low frequency reinforcement)
or negative effects (high-frequency reflections that will degrade intelligibility).
