• Do not stand or sit on, nor hang down from the unit as this may cause it to fall down or drop, resulting in personal injury and/or property damage.
• Have the unit checked periodically by the shop from where it was purchased. Failure to do so may result in corrosion or damage to the unit or its mounting bracket that could cause the unit to fall, possibly causing personal injury.
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The HX-5B-WP EB-Q and HX-5W-WP EB-Q are 2-way compact speaker system that permits both constant directivity control over a wide frequency range and changes in directivity.
It is ideal for reproducing clear sound in spaces with longreverberation times or high background noises.
The HX-5B-WP EB-Q and HX-5W-WP EB-Q can be used outdoor.
3. FEATURES
• Four speaker modules ensure high power and high quality.
• The changeable orientation of each of the four speaker modules independently allows the directivity angle of the speaker system to be adjusted.
• Built-in passive network ensures appropriate sound quality.
• Ideal for both permanent and temporary installations, including both vertical and horizontal positioning.
• Equipped with a convenient carrying handle.
• Can be mounted directly on a wall or suspended by wire, chain or shackle with no need to use optional brackets.
• Optional mounting brackets allow use in a wide variety of applications, including suspension, ceiling mounting, wall mounting, and speaker stand mounting. Mounting procedures are described in the instruction manuals enclosed with the mounting bracket or stand adapter.
4. ABOUT THE INPUT OVERLOAD PROTECTION CIRCUITRY
The speaker system features internal input overload protection circuitry. If an extremely high input level is fed to the unit, the protection circuitry automatically cuts off the signal to the tweeters.
A drastic reduction in sound volume for the high frequency range indicates that the protection circuitry has been enabled.
In such cases, simply reduce the amplifier volume. The protection circuitry will automatically reset in approximately 10 seconds. After reset, try to maintain the volume at a level slightly lower than before.
Caution
This protection circuitry does not completely protect the unit against extremely high input power levels.
Depending on the type or duration of excessive power input, the protection circuitry might not be enabled, resulting in damage to the speaker element. Also, if the excessive power input continues for a long period of time, the circuitry may not be capable of resetting to its original condition.
Use the system with care so that the speakers are not exposed to excessive power input.
