VXP Series Operation Manual  rev 1.0.2

5. Operation

5. Operation 

All loudspeakers in the VXP range are integrated designs which include system specific EQ and protection 
circuitry, without the need for external amplification. For room equalization, delay and other commissioning 
or setup functions, we recommend you use a VNET SC1 or TDX1 Digital Controller. Below are examples of 
common set-ups:
