Basic set-up principles The SPL90, SPL90T, SP2-10 and SP18 are components of the Sigma Series modular, self- powered, audio system. Many combinations of the top cabinets with SP2-10 and SP18 are feasible. All models have integrated rigging points enabling each system to be flown by means of pragmatic rigging hardware.

Quick reference set-up guide Carefully read this section before suspending the SPL system Note! The SPX flying system has been designed according to most international guidelines for overhead suspension. However, local safety legislation may be applicable and it is the responsibility of the installer to apply these safety guidelines. SPX Mounting bracket components SPX Mounting Bracket For single or double* cabinet fixing...
Using the SPX Mounting Bracket The SPL mounting bracket is designed for use with a single cabinet when using the middle fixing hole or 2 cabinets when using the two outer fixing holes. All items for cabinet fixture are included. Various ways to connect the bracket to wall, ceiling or construction are applicable.
SPX flying system components SPX Basic Flyingframe for use up to 6 cabinets SPX Flying frame Extender For use up to 6 cabinets – configuration dependant SPX Flying frame assembly for flying up to 6 cabinets or groundstacking up to 4 cabinets for flying below or on top of SP18/SP2-10 bassbins Flying frame and extender are connecter by means of bolt M12x60, washers and locking nuts M12 (included)

Consult the Guideline to maximum amount of cabinets on page 15 when preparing the design of an SPX line-array using the SPX flying frame with the flying frame extender. Quick Release Pin (8 per cabinet) Connector fixes SPL Connector (2 per cabinet) Cabinet interconnection Angle settings of the SPL connector The SPL connector holds 4 pairs of holes enabling combinations for 3 different angle settings:...
5 simple steps to rig your SPL array Safety Note: The maximum amount of cabinets to be hoisted by the SPL flying frame is dependent on the configuration of the intended setup. Due to momentum critical forces on connectors will increase fast when the lifting point is shifted backwards. Consult table on page 15 to avoid overload situations! Method A Step 1...

Step 3 Now lift the adjacent cabinet with one person a side and attach it to the extending connectors using two QRPs per side. Step 4 Connect audio and mains power cables. Repeat step 2 thru 4 for all cabinets in the array.
Ground-stacking an SPL array Note: Always use an SPX flying frame with extender to stack an array of SPL cabinets. When stacking on top of a cluster of bassbins it is highly recommended to secure the flying frame with connectors to the bassbin. Up to 4 cabinets can be groundstacked by means of the SPX flying frame with extender.

Step 3 Lift the complete ground stack array in an upright position. Typical groundstack setup consisting of 3 SPL-90Ts on a flying frame. Note: the maximum amount of cabinets is largely depending on local circumstances such as ground-stability, weather influences (e.g. wind) and array shape. Always check groundstack stability physically and if necessary grant stability using stabilizing lines.
Groundstacking on top of Bassbins When making a ground stack on top of a bassbin cluster it is highly recommended to use fixing connectors between the bassbin and the SPL flying frame. Example Groundstack setup consisting of 4 SPL-90Ts and 2 SP18s - 12 - Product info SPL Series...
Approval testing by Certified Body every two years. (Official agency) Like any high performance tool your Sound Projects system needs regular maintenance. Check all bolts and nuts of your audio systems at least once a year! Clean fan-grill, foam-grill and cabinet openings with vacuum cleaner and compressed air to remove excessive dust.
Guideline to maximum amount of cabinets *Flying frame should be positioned horizontally ALWAYS consult Sound Projects’ proprietary acoustic prediction software SPArC™ (downloadable at www.soundprojects.com) to determine the maximum amount of cabinets at specific situations. The angle of the flying frame influences the forces on the flying hardware.
Declaration of Conformity Almere, 1 October 2010 SOUND PROJECTS, hereafter referred to as the manufacturer, declares that the SPX rigging system and its rigging hardware as supplied by the manufacturer are produced and, when provided with certificate, tested conform CE norms as described in the Guidelines for Machinery appendix 2A.
