Suspending the Cabinet
WARNING: Suspending the system should only be done by qualified personnel following safe rigging practices. Secure fixings to the
building structure are vital. Seek help from architects, structural engineers or other specialists if in any doubt.
DDX Series enclosures can be suspended singly by means of the threaded inserts provided. Enclosures are fitted internally with steel corner
reinforcement brackets, where necessary, to ensure that each cabinet is strong enough to be hung from its top.
•
Never suspend one enclosure from another to form an array or cluster using these fittings.
•
Only use forged shoulder eye bolts. It is important that the thread length is at least 30mm.
•
Formed eye bolts i.e. those which are formed from a steel rod bent into an eye are not recommended.
•
Eye bolts are strongest along the thread axis. Angling the enclosure will result in an angle pull and it is important to use eye bolts
that are safe in these circumstances.
•
Check that the eye bolt has a safe working load that is greater than the weight of the loudspeaker being suspended.
Mounting Location
For optimum performance it is recommended to mount the loudspeakers above head height as this gives clear line of sight to the target
area.
Vertical aiming angles for DDX loudspeakers are generally less than needed with a symmetrical dispersion loudspeaker. Mapping DDX in
simulation software such as EASE will help decide how much vertical angle is appropriate.
