Unpacking and Inventorying
When you fi rst unpack ELEMENTS GALA, take a quick inventory to make
sure the package comes complete with all the contents. The system con-
sists of the GALA SUB 15 powered subwoofer, four E 835 mid/high units,
two each EF 45 bases and two EP 2 speaker extension poles with a built-in
signal bus. It also comes with a matching V-Lock mains cable, two speaker
cords equipped with Speakon connectors, and four locking wedges to fi x the
mid/high units in place to so they can't turn to the left or right.
Heads up: If you purchased the GALA SUB 15 subwoofer separately, please
be advised that this powered speaker may only be operated with the afore-
mentioned ELEMENTS components.
The System's Components
The Subwoofer GALA SUB 15
The GALA SUB 15 subwoofer is loaded with a 15" woofer; it houses the
system's active circuitry and the Class D power amplifi ers. The connection
and control panel is on the rear.
Mid/High Columns
The two columns consist of two E 835s each for a grand total of 32 3.5" full-
range speakers. These operate on the same principle as big line arrays. The
built-in E-Connect signal bus provides a cordless link between the column's
components. The EF 45 base features two parallel Speakon NL4 inputs and
an E-Connect docking port.
Heads up! The system's components are matched for the best
possible audio performance and may only be operated in the specifi ed
confi guration. The use of satellites other than these will not only degrade
the sound; it may also damage the power amp as well as connected
outboard devices.
