  • Page 2: Safety Precautions

    • Install the unit only in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit and the mounting bracket. Doing otherwise may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage. • (HX-5B-WP and HX-5W-WP only) When installing the unit in the snowy area, take appropriate measures to prevent snow from lying on the unit.

  • Page 12 Step 6. Suspend the speaker system using appropriate commercially obtained wires, chains, or anchor shackles. To mount the speaker system horizontally, rotate the speaker system's rear plate 90° from the factory-preset orientation. For details, refer to p. 5, Changing the orientation of rear plate. WARNING Run the anchor shackles, etc.

    11.1. Vertical Installation Note For outdoor use, install the HX-5B-WP or HX-5W-WP in conjunction with the HY-WM1WP Speaker Mounting Bracket so that all speaker modules point downward from the horizontal. Failure to do so could adversely affect their water-resistant capability, leading to malfunction.

    13. COMBINATION WITH THE MT-200 MATCHING TRANSFORMER Using the optional MT-200 matching transformer allows the speaker system to be connected to a high- impedance amplifier. This matching transformer is best for use when the distance between the amplifier and speaker is very long, or when multiple speaker systems are parallel-connected to a single amplifier. Regarding the procedure for mounting the transformer on the speaker, refer to the instruction manual enclosed with the MT-200.
