MOUNTING & RIGGING OPTIONS
Stand Mounting
The i-2 has two 3/8” threaded fixings for microphone stand mounting. When mounting in this way, please
consider the following:
Ensure your stand height is locked off and the tripod legs are positioned so as to be stable.
Check the weight loading of your stands before attempting to mount the loudspeaker.
Do not stack a second loudspeaker on top of the stand-mounted one.
Ensure cables are run so as to leave enough slack to enable neat wiring, and thus reduce the risk of the
speaker being pulled over. Loose cables should be covered or taped down wherever possible to reduce trip
hazards.
If stands are being used outdoors, it may be necessary to add ballast to the base of the stand to prevent it
toppling over.
Ground Stacking
Ensure that the floor or stage surface can withstand the weight of the system.
Wherever possible, avoid high stacks and use ratchet straps to secure loudspeakers together. Please also
remember that vibrations from subwoofer systems can shake other loudspeakers out of place, which may
present a toppling hazard. The use of ratchet straps and non-slip material is recommended to prevent this.
WARNING: The overhead suspension of loudspeakers is a very serious issue with potentially lethal
consequences should anything go wrong. Rigging should only be carried out by experienced
personnel following safe working practice. Should you be in any doubt whatsoever, please contact
your local dealer who will be able to refer you to a suitable rigging company.
