SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

 The RS15 can easily reproduce sound pressure levels (SPL) sufficient enough to cause severe and
permanent hearing damage. Always protect your ears when you are exposed to SPL in excess of 85dB!
 Be sure that your power amp is turned off before connecting the speakers.
 The woofer and tweeter are not protected against humid and rain. Therefore this speaker is intended for
indoor use only, use of this product outdoors, in humid conditions and without proper protection, voids all
warranties.
 Always mount this speaker in safe and stable way.
 Take special care when the cabinets are suspended. This is potentially dangerous and should only be
carried out by technicians who have perfect knowledge of the techniques and regulations of rigging
speakers!
CONNECTIONS
® ®
The RS15 has two Neutrik Speakon connectors. Both connectors are connected in parallel. This means
that you can connect a second RS15 in parallel.
®
Speakon wiring is made as follows:
 POSITIVE
= +1
 NEGATIVE
= -1
Attention: when a second speaker is connected, the impedance drops from 8Ω to 4Ω! In most cases you
can only connect 2 cabinets together. However, if your amplifier supports 2Ω loads, you can connect up to 4
cabinets to each amplifier output.

Cables to be used:
You can use readymade cables but of course you can also assemble the speaker cables yourself. Take care
to use good quality speaker cable with at least 2x 2.5mm² conductors. You will also need a pair of Neutrik
Speakon® NL4FC connectors. This connector has 4contacts: +1 -1 +2 -2. Only use the +1 and -1 contacts.
Your speaker cable has 2 conductors with different colors. Be sure to connect the same color on each side
of the cable to the corresponding contact! (+1 to +1 and -1 to -1).
If you inverse the conductors, poor sound quality with a lack of low frequencies will be the result.
RIGGING POINTS
The RS-15 cabinets have several rigging points. These can be used to suspend (fly) the cabinet. For this
purpose you can use the different optional flying hardware as shown on the picture. RIG-RS15, a special
rigging kit for one RS15 cabinet, can be ordered separately. It contains 2pcs M10 eye bolts (1) + 2pcs single
stud fitting (2).
Always take special care when the cabinets are suspended. This is potentially dangerous and should only be
carried out by technicians who have perfect knowledge of the techniques and regulations of rigging
speakers!
