2. SAFETY FIRST
General considerations
It is important that loudspeaker systems are used in a safe manner. All
systems are meant to be installed and operated by qualified personnel. Please take
some time to read this manual concerning safe and proper use of X-line Series
loudspeakers. Always use protection gear to prevent injuries or death, and do not
allow general public presence too close to the work area during equipment
installation.
Professional loudspeakers are capable of producing extremely high sound
level pressures and should be used with care.
Hearing loss is cumulative and
can result from prolonged exposure to sound pressure levels above
90dB.
Never stand too close to driven loudspeakers, and use protection
equipment during equipment operation.
Tripod Mounting
The X10, X12 and loudspeakers incorporate a pole mounting socket to make
mounting on tripod stands possible. When using stands, the following precautions
are should be taken:
-
Ensure that the stand will support the weight of the speaker by checking
the stand manufacturers rating.
-
Make sure that the stand is placed on even and solid surface that can
withstand the weight and that its’ legs are fully extended.
-
Never, ever, try to place more than one speaker on a single stand.
