Before You Begin
The Cerwin-Vega! subwoofer covered by this manual is designed for portable applications in which the speaker will be
stacked directly on the floor, stage, or a solid, stable platform. Cerwin-Vega! does not support suspension of the sub-
woofer model covered by this manual nor is this model intended for fixed installation in outdoor or high moisture envi-
ronments. Moisture can damage the speaker cone and surround and cause corrosion of electrical contacts. If this hap-
pens, your speaker will stop working and no one will be able to hear your awesome sound. So, avoid exposing the
speakers to direct moisture. Keep speakers out of extended or intense direct sunlight. The driver suspension will prema-
turely dry out and finished surfaces may degrade from long-term exposure to intense ultra-violet (UV) light.
Cerwin-Vega! subwoofers can generate considerable energy. When placed on a slippery surface such as polished wood
or linoleum, the speaker may move due to its acoustical energy output. Precautions should be taken to ensure that the
speaker does not fall off a stage or table on which it is placed. The last thing you want is a speaker falling on someone in
the front row...that might really damage your equipment and ruin your night!
Some Cerwin-Vega! subwoofers include a receptacle cup to allow mounting of a satellite speaker on top of the sub-
woofer using a standard speaker pole shaft. When using a standard speaker pole shaft, be sure to observe the following
precautions:
o Check the speaker pole shaft for specification to be certain it is designed to support the weight of the speaker.
o Observe all safety precautions specified by the speaker pole shaft manufacturer.
o Always verify that the subwoofer is placed on a flat, level, and stable surface.
o Route cables so that performers, production crew, and audience will not trip over them, toppling the speaker.
o Always be cautious in windy, outdoor conditions as the stability of the entire system may be compromised.
Cerwin-Vega! subwoofers are easily capable of generating sound pressure levels (SPL) sufficient to cause permanent
hearing damage to performers, production crew and audience members. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged
exposure to SPL in excess of 90 dB.
