BLACKLINEX POWERED USER GUIDE
Grille Removal and Horn Rotation
The BlacklineX Powered full range loudspeakers may be used in landscape or horizontal orientation, most obviously when used as a monitor
wedge but also when flown in fixed installations. For the loudspeaker to perform correctly it is necessary to rotate the horn flare through
90° to preserve the horizontal and vertical dispersion. The loudspeakers are designed to make this as straightforward as possible with
spring-loaded grilles which are easily removed and horns screwed in place with Pozidrive screws. It is also possible to rotate the Martin
Audio badge on the grille.
Grille Removal
Grilles on BlacklineX Powered cabinets are designed to be easy to remove to facilitate driver rotation. No screws are used to hold them in
place. They are manufactured with a natural spring which holds them in place in slots in each side of the cabinets. The grilles have two or
three gaps in the sides into which an appropriately sized flat-bladed screwdriver can be inserted to assist in removal.
Insert the screwdriver blade into one of the gaps - either at the top or bottom of the cabinet:
Gently push the handle down. This will ease the grille out of the slot. Tt may have bitten into the paint surface so you just need to make
sure it is free to be lifted clear:
