Applications The K Series has been primarily designed for portable audio reinforce- ment. This includes a variety of uses in reinforcement for entertainers and presenters. The K8, K10 and K12 are all designed to perform well on their own in full-range audio. They can be used singly, in stereo pairs or in distributed or delayed systems. They perform extraordinarily well as both main reinforcement systems and as floor monitors (K10 and K12 only). (Figure 1) The K8, K10, and K12 are all equip

Installation Before placing, installing, rigging, or suspending any speaker product, inspect all hardware, suspension, cabinets, transducers, brack- ets and associated equipment for damage. Any missing, corroded, deformed, or non-load rated component could significantly reduce the strength of the installation or placement. Any such condition severely reduces the safety of the installation and should be immediately cor- rected. Use only hardware which is rated for the loading conditions of the i

Integrated Suspension Points (suspended installations) The K8, K10 and K12 enclosures each feature three load-rated M10 installation points. As shipped from the factory, each pick point has a rubber plug installed to retain the sleek look of the enclosure. These installation points are designed for use with the eyebolts included in the available accessory kit, model number K SERIES M10 KIT. The installation points may also be used with any forged shoulder eyebolt with an M10 thread, provided t

AC Mains Connect AC power to the IEC socket on the back of the amplifier by locating the IEC connector-end of the AC power cord and inserting it fully into the IEC inlet on the power amplifier module. NOTE: Turn off the AC power switch before connecting AC power. The V-LOCK power cord has a special latching feature to prevent the power cord from being unintentionally removed. The IEC plug and socket are both blue in color so the power cord can be identified as a K Series loudspeaker cord. If

Subwoofer Polarity Polarity (sometimes improperly referred to as phase) refers to the voltage of an input signal and whether it is a positive or negative voltage at any given time. In most cases a positive voltage causes a woofer cone to move forward with respect to the cabinet orientation, and a negative voltage then moves the woofer cone backward. Most importantly, speakers reproducing the same signal or signals that are adjacent in frequency must have the same polarity to get the maximum

Remote Gain Attenuator A 3 pin “Euro” connector has been provided to adjust the volume of the K Series loudspeaker or put the system into standby. (Figure 13) By varying the voltage on the pin between +5V (provided on pin) and ground ( pin), the volume can be linearly controlled. The voltage on the pin can be created by using a potentiometer or provided from an external source. Many K Series systems can be controlled from a single poten- tiometer by connecting
