Introduction
Thank you very much for purchasing the Nowsonic Stagetrip 10/12
active speaker. The Nowsonic Stagetrip 10/12 is an active mono
speaker offering considerably better directivity thanks to a coaxial ar-
rangement of the woofer and the tweeter. The on-axis audio output
improves source location and also considerably minimizes unwanted
effects caused by phase cancellation or addition. The Stagetrip 10
features a 10” woofer plus a 1” titanium dome tweeter; the internal
bi-amping power amplifier provides 300 watts for the woofer and
100 watts for the tweeter. The Stagetrip 12 includes a 12” woofer and a
1.35” titanium dome tweeter driven at 100 and 450 watts, respectively.
Thanks to its enclosure design and the speaker-stand mount adapt-
er, you can use the Stagetrip 10/12 as a floor wedge for monitoring
purposes or as a full-range speaker for front-of-house (
FOH
) applica-
tions. When mounting the speaker onto a stand, the power amplifier
will be positioned at the bottom, thus improving protection against
humidity and dirt. On the input side, the Stagetrip 10/12 accepts line
signals (from a mixing console, a
CD
player, etc.). In addition, you can
connect a dynamic microphone after adjusting the input sensitivity
using a dedicated switch. A high-pass filter can be engaged to increase
intelligibility.
The Stagetrip 10/12 also has output sockets for audio and power pass-
through.
