system setups
Speaker systems can be scaled from small to large for the size of the venue
and type of performance, using different speakers in different positions as you
grow a system. for instance a single pair of SCx1112’s or SCx1115’s on pole
stands may be all that is required. adding SCx1118 or SCx1118a subs will
expand your system for bigger performances. for larger performances use the
SCx1253 for mains with the SCx1112 or SCx1115 as stage monitors or side fills.
Two SCx1118(a)’s can be used (per side) to keep up with the high Spl output of
one SCx1253 per side.
Biamping anD aDvanceD system contRol
With the SCx1118a, use the Xlr THru jack with the HI paSS OuTpuT switch
engaged to drive the power amp for your SCx1112 or SCx1115 to reduce the
power needed to drive these cabinets.
active electronic crossovers such as Carvin’s XD360 X-Drive can be used for
more advanced control. Bi-amping, and 2- or 3-way setups allow more efficient
use of speakers and power amps. See the chart for recommended crossover
frequencies.

ensure that the floor, stage or soundwings are level and solid. Be cautious
of outdoor windy conditions, speaker stacks could topple over in high wind
conditions or be accidentally pushed or bumped over by over-zealous crowds.
loudspeakers producing very high Spl (especially subwoofers) can shift from
their original position. ensure the feet of the loudspeakers are locked into the
feet cups of the speaker below. place frictional material between the floor and
the loudspeaker.
