better plan and execute your installations.  We call these C-TIPS (short for COMMUNITY-TIPS).  
These tips originate from Community staff members as well as from installers and end users.  We 
welcome any C-TIPS that you may want to share with us, and we’ll acknowledge you as the source if 
we print them in future user’s manuals. 

 

Precautions & Safety Considerations 

 
English - 

The loudspeakers described in this manual are designed and intended to be ‘flown’ or suspended 

for maximum acoustical performance using a variety of rigging hardware, means, and methods.  It is 
essential that all installation work involving the suspension of these loudspeaker products be performed by 
competent, knowledgeable persons who understand safe rigging practices.  Severe injury and/or loss of life 
may occur if these products are improperly installed.  Please read the section on rigging for additional 
information.
