Operation manual VERA20

Introduction 

Thank you for choosing a high-quality product “MADE IN GERMANY” from TW AUDiO. 

The VERA20 loudspeaker is equipped with two 10” chassis for the low-mid frequencies and 
a waveguide with a 1.4” mid-high compression driver. Compared with typical double 
8” systems, the VERA20‘s two 10” drivers are capable of reproducing up to 6 dB more 
output in the low-mid frequency range with lower distortion. 

Thanks to the loudspeaker’s width (only 60 cm / 23.62 inches) and height (28 cm / 
11.02 inches), vertical arrays of up to 24 elements may be constructed. 

The newly developed 1.4” compression driver and waveguide provides smooth and accurate 
midrange performance for natural vocal and music reproduction. The low frequency 
crossover point around 1

kHz guarantees precise and uniform coverage even in the sensitive 

transition range. The extraordinarily fast transient response ensures that high frequency 
reproduction is detailed and crisp. 

The VERA20 implements an outstandingly innovative rigging hardware, allowing 
straightforward, fast and cost-efficient setup and dismounting by just one technician. A 
special feature is logarithmic scaling of the intermediate angles between angles. This allows 
for angle adjustment of less than one degree to achieve more accurate directivity of upper 
array elements over longer distances. 

If you lend your product to another party, inform that party of the safety-related operating 
procedures and hand over this operating manual. If you require additional copies of this 
manual, you can obtain them free of charge from TW AUDiO or download them from:
