GENERAL AMPLIFICATION NOTES & REQUIREMENTS • For the purpose of this discussion: Crown MA series amplifiers are used below. HF indicates High Frequency drivers, MF indicates Mid Frequency drivers, LF indicates Low Frequency drivers and VLF stands for Very Low Frequency drivers (subwoofers). • Equivalent amplifiers can be used as substitutions. • Users should observe differences in input sensitivity and maximum available power at a given impedance load. • Users may choose to use t

NOTES ON SUBWOOFER WIRING • VT4880: Users may choose to wire both 2258 (18”) components in parallel to one (1) channel of a MA-3600 or MA-5002 for (4) ohms load. In this case each amplifier channel drives one VT4880. If two VT4880 are wired in parallel, the load is two ohms and there will be no amplifier power headroom. • VT4881: Users may choose to wire both coils in a single 2256G component in parallel to one (1) channel of a MA-3600 or MA-5002 for (4) ohms load. In this case

NOTES REGARDING LIMITER SETTINGS • The recommended limiter threshold settings provide 3 dB of headroom before the component or bandpass peak voltage is reached. • The component or bandpass peak voltage is 6 dB above the voltage used at continuous maximum power. • These settings assume the use of a Crown MA-5002 in stereo mode with input sensitivity of 1.4V for a voltage gain of 37 dB. Amplifier limiter and Offset Integration switches are set to the off position. • If a different

VERTEC SYSTEMS SUSPENSION HARDWARE & ASSEMBLY NOTES Arrays of similar VERTEC Model • Each VERTEC model uses the matching model of Array Frame (VT488X-AF) or Short Frame (VT488X-SF) to create clusters of the same model. • These same frames can also be used to ground stack the various systems. Arrays of Combined VERTEC Models • Clusters of combined models (i.e. VT4887s attached under a VT4889) use ADAPTER FRAMES to interconnect the various models. • These frames are t
