LX-V12 ASSEMBLY AND ANGULATION OF LX-V12 CABINETS The LX-V12 is easy to install. The Rainbow software provides all the necessary information to mount the array cabinets with the required angles to get the calculated coverage and pressure. The cabinets can be placed with variable angulation between 0º and 8.5º, with increases of 0.5º. Once the angle has been determined for each of the cabinets, you have to set up the link pieces P2 in order to achieve this intercabinet angle.
(including cable connection) of 2.000 kg. USING LX-V12 WITH LX-V8 With the V12 system you can build a block comprising other LX Series products. For example, the LX-V12 is easily deployed with the LX-V8 cabinets using the Flying adaptor SV-LXV12/8 LYNX Pro Audio S.L.
