All speakers comply with a production control at various stages of process and each component is tested individ- ually. Each speaker LSS uses components with tolerances of 5% and any component that exceeds the same is discarded. The cabinet is made of birch plywood phenolic bonded with adhesives Quick-setting, all models are covered with a special polyurethane resin resistant weathering and scratching. The speakers used are all designed and manufactured by LSS of specifications. A Line Array consists of a sound diffusion system composed of several units arranged vertical- ly one below the other which allow to obtain the effect of a single source acoustic having a hor- izontal dispersion defined (in our case 120 °) and a vertical determined by the amount of the speakers and their inclination. In this regard it is important to properly evaluate each individual installation because there is no standard mounting suitable at all events but, conversely, each installation must be individualized on the basis of a number of conditions such as audience size and position of listening to the public, positioning of the array (system hung or placed), height positioning, total number of speakers. The array system is certainly not the ideal system for all events and certainly not for small ones indoors. Very often it is easier sound to a club with four conventional speakers. In conclusion we believe that the array system is a system very precise and at the same time complex, for use with criterion and extreme accuracy. 1. INTRODUCTION

ST17/SB17 2. INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The use of these systems must always be carried out by qualified personnel n accordance with regulations and safety standards in force. The suspension system allows the hanging of a maximum number of 8 units for each bar. It ‘important to ensure that The anchor of the system is carried out in a safe place, making sure that the installation the same is appropriate and has the ability to load appropriate to the suspension or the support plant. To facilitate the accuracy in coupling of the vertical speakers each of them incorporates a suspension kit that facilitates installation into vertical. It ‘important to note that the system hardware, being an integral part of the unit, is constructed so that the separation between the speakers, front axle, remains the same. It is important to know that all the loudspeakers hanging in public places as well as the system main suspension, must be provided with a secondary safety system independent and ade- quate load capacity. The steel cables or chains must be exclusively certified. The Line Array, composed of speakers ST17e by SB17 subwoofer is designed to be stacked or hung. Hung System (“flown”) (MAX 8pcs 2 of SB17 + 6 of ST17 or 8 ST17) Stacked System (“stacked”) (MAX 6pcs 2 of SB17 + 4 of ST17)

ST17/SB17 THE SUSPENSION BAR The bar is made of bent steel in 30/10 and is designed to support large loads. It is equipped with a central suspension point and 2-point front. The central bar has a series of holes with diameter 16 mm which serve as adjustment. the point Lifting chosen will determine the angle of inclination of the entire array. The line in which pass the two anchor points passes through the center of gravity of the system hung so as to ensure a suspension aligned and balanced. As an alternative to suspension on one point you can stop the system using the 3-point two front and one in the middle, using chains or straps with snap hooks relative or the three anchor points can be separately coupled to different motors for the suspension so as to distribute the load and enable the entire array to be tilted within certain limits. The suspension bar can also be used for the configuration system supported using the adjustable feet for leveling. 407mm 545mm

Fax +39 - 0966-933007 E-mail: [email protected] USING THE SYSTEM HARDWARE The Line Array system is equipped with a hardware suspension on the front and on the back of the speakers. On both sides of the front of the speaker there are two metal bars front. These bars are positioned towards the upper chest. Hooking these two bars with the specific pins, it has the possibility of attaching the speaker to the upper chest. Centrally in the rear the diffuser is a metal bar rotatable aluminum necessary to determine the angle between two cabinets. The rear bracket has a corresponding set of holes angle of 1.25 ° per hole. The maximum tilt angle is 10 °. Once the complete lifting of the array is finished, the bar must be secured against rotation. To use the system configuration supported in the procedure is the same. 05/06 ADJUSTMENT REAR SYSTEM FRONT HOOK
