Applications The CP Series has been primarily designed for portable audio reinforcement. This includes a variety of uses in reinforcement for entertainers and presenters. All are designed to perform well on their own in full-range audio. They can be used singly, in stereo pairs or in distributed or delayed systems. They perform extraordinarily well as both main reinforcement systems and as floor monitors as shown in Figure 3.
Deployment The CP Series loudspeakers were designed to sit on the floor, stage, a subwoofer enclosure, be yoke mounted, or be pole mounted on a 35 mm diameter loudspeaker support pole. If you are going to pole-mount on a subwoofer, refer to the chart below for specifics. CP8 CP12 WARNING!: Do not use a loudspeaker support pole longer than the lengths specified in the table below when supported by a subwoofer.
AC Mains Disconnection Push in on the bottom of the rocker switch to turn the powered loudspeaker off. Unplug the AC cable from the power source. Unplug the cable from the amplifier.

• Dance Ext Sub - A voicing with low frequency enhancement and mid/high clarity more suitable for program material playback like pop or electronic music, with an 80 Hz high-pass filter for use with an external subwoofer, for example, the KS112. (When Mic Boost is selected, input B contour changes to “Speech” while input A remains as “Dance.”) • Floor Monitor – A voicing for a full, balanced sound when used as a wedge monitor, giving added stability when live microphones are nearby.
