CHAPTER 7
MTG-700 MULTIPURPOSE GRID
The MTG-700 top grid is a very straightforward solution for
rigging 700-HP subwoofers, allowing multiple cabinets to
be flown in a straight array. The MTG-700 top grid can ac-
commodate a variety of pickup configurations using its six
pick-up points, three on each side of the frame (Figure 7.3).
NOTE:
For more information on load ratings
and how to set up the MTG-700, please use
the 700-HP Rigging Grid and Accessories Assembly
Guide available at www.meyersound.com.
Figure 7.3. Flying a 700-HP array is easily achieved with the MTG-700 top
grid (3 to 2 corner/center point pickup configuration shown).
The MTG-700 top grid is supplied with:
■
1 MTG-700 top grid assembly
■
4 MTG-700 rigging link
■
8 3/8" x 1.125" QRPs
The four MTG-700 rigging links are used to connect the grid
to the top subwoofers in the array (Figure 7.4).
Figure 7.4. Multiple 700-HP subwoofers can be supported by the MTG-700
multipurpose grid.
CAUTION:
Use only MTG-700 rigging links
with the MTG-700 top grid. Never use the
standard MAL-700 straight rigging links when con-
necting a 700-HP subwoofer to the MTG-700 top
grid.
For convenient storage, each of the four MTG-700 rigging
links can be stowed in the MTG-700 top grid, and secured
with the 3/8" x 1.125" QRPs (Figure 7.5).
Figure 7.5. The MTG-700 rigging links are stowed in the MTG-700 top grid
during transport.
