Installation Getting Started
CAUTION!
• Before installing this loudspeaker product, inspect all
hardware, brackets, surfaces, cabinets and associated
equipment for damage. If a fault is discovered, it should be
corrected immediately.
• Never connect multiple amplifier outputs to the parallel
speakon or 1/4” jack speaker wire connectors at the
same time. This may cause a short and may damage your
equipment or cause a fire.
• This loudspeaker can easily reproduce sound pressure levels
(SPL) loud enough to cause permanent ear damage that
could result in hearing loss. Take great precaution to protect
yourself from prolonged exposure to high output sound
pressure levels.
Step 1
Carefully run CH 1 or both CH 1 and CH 2 speaker wires
from the amplifier up to the location of the loudspeakers.

Loudspeaker Placement
The Shaker DJ Series Loudspeakers were designed to sit
on a solid flat surface or be pole mounted on a 35 mm
diameter loudspeaker support pole.
• Follow the user guide installation procedures to install your
Shaker DJ Loudspeakers into your own sound system.
• Place the loudspeaker cabinet on a solid level surface
where it cannot be toppled or tilted.
• If the loudspeaker is to be pole mounted, ensure the tripod
is on a flat solid surface and on a location where it cannot
be toppled or tilted by the audience or personnel.
• Elevate the loudspeaker at or above head level. This
is to prevent the high frequencies from being blocked
and getting muffled by obstacles directly in front of the
tweeters.
• Avoid placing full-range loudspeakers in a corner or right
next to a wall to avoid degrading the overall sound quality.
• If loudspeakers are to be placed in locations where large
amounts of reverberations or echoes are produced, such
as gymnasiums and auditoriums, laying carpet or rugs will
help dampen the reflections and improve the overall sound
quality of the system.
