SAFETY WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES 

 

Turn off and unplug all equipment prior to making electrical connections, including 
speaker wire connections. 

 

Reduce the volume level prior to making any change to the audio input source, e.g., 
changing radio stations or changing CDs. 

 

When using this speaker as part of a constant voltage speaker system, ensure that 
the amplifier power is at least 20% higher than the total power settings of the 
connected speakers. 

 

Most speaker damage is caused by clipping, which is heard as distortion. If you hear 
distortion, reduce the volume level until the audio is no longer distorted. 

 

Take care to ensure that the speaker wire connections are properly polarized. 
Inverted polarization can result in unnatural or attenuated sound, especially in the 
bass frequencies. 

 

Do not use chemical cleaners or solvents to clean this speaker. Use only a soft, dry 
cloth. Moisten the cloth with warm water for particularly stubborn deposits. 

 

The speaker has a steel safety wire with a loop running through the wire bundle. 
Ensure that the safety wire is securely attached to a truss or beam inside the ceiling, 
which is capable of supporting the weight of the speaker. 

 

INTRODUCTION 

Thank you for purchasing this Pendant Speaker! 
This public address speaker is designed to be suspended from a ceiling in a manner similar 
to a suspended light fixture. It features a built-in step-down transformer with three taps, 
allowing it to be used as part of a 70V or 100V constant voltage speaker array.
