Loudspeaker systems are potentially dangerous objects if used incorrectly. Please ensure that you read this section fully, and contact EM Acoustics or your local dealer should you be in any doubt over correct operation procedures. Professional loudspeaker systems are capable of producing damage-inducing sound pressure levels, and hence care should be taken when setting your system up, particularly when it comes to loudspeaker placement within a venue.
Should you be in any doubt whatsoever, please contact your local dealer who will be able to refer you to a suitable rigging company. Cabling and Amplifier Selection The MSE-159 and MSE-156 are designed to be used with professional power amplifiers providing the following power outputs: MSE-159/MSE-156...
– we would stress that the higher the filter, the safer the loudspeaker will be. If you are in any doubt over suitable settings for your MSE-159, please don’t hesitate to contact EM Acoustics or your local dealer for support and advice.
¼” ball-lock pins secure the optional flying hardware into the flying plates. The MSE-159 and MSE-156 also has an M8 threaded fixing on the rear for use as a pull-back point or for attachment of a secondary safety point.
Ensure that an eyebolt is secured to the rear point on the MSE-159/MSE-156 (M8 at the rear) or one of the top points (M10 on top or bottom) to use as a secondary safety. To set the angle of the loudspeaker, there are standard clamping levers on each side as a primary system however as a secondary, and to act as a repeatable method for flying, the holes and ball-lock pins allow quick and easy angle setting in 5-degree increments.
