  • Page 8 User's manual K&F NOMOS LS Safety￿Instructions Mounting￿the￿Speakers￿/￿Wall￿and￿Ceiling￿Installation The speakers may only be mounted by qualified event technicians or personnel which are instructed by them, adequately. This also applies for wall and ceiling fixations. The technicians responsible for assembling the speakers on site are responsible for the safe setup and use of the speakers and guarantee this.
  • Page 9: Preventing Hearing Damage

    Make sure that the stacking feet of subwoofers stacked on top of one another are securely positioned in the grooves of the lower speaker. If you place a top speaker on a NOMOS LS you must always strap the speakers to one another and secure them from falling over.
  • Page 10 K&F NOMOS LS Protecting￿the￿Speakers￿/￿Operating￿Safety NOMOS LS speakers may only be used in combination with a K&F SystemRack. In general, audio signals must not be overdriven. This may be caused by mixing consoles, equalizers, effect equipment, etc. and should be indicated on this equipment. When a power amplifier is over- loaded at the output (clipping), then the amplifier activates a clipping warning signal.

  • Page 12 K&F NOMOS LS Fuse￿in￿the￿NOMOS￿LS To increase the operating safety of the NOMOS LS, the subwoofer is equipped with fuses at the signal input mounted on the crossover. This fuse reduces the risk of consequential damage resulting from a short circuit (i.e. charred cables / connectors / fire damage).
