USER GUIDE

FLYING XE SERIES MONITORS

The XE300 and XE500 are also suitable for mounting at height: both models have two M8 
inserts in each end of the enclosure into which eye bolts may be fitted, to allow them to flown 
from a truss using standard rigging techniques.

Important: To maintain the correct coverage characteristics, XE Series should only be flown 
upside-down.

When flying any loudspeakers, always observe standard industry guidance regarding truss loading 
and safety considerations. The weights of XE Series enclosures are:
