70 Milan Series Quick Start Guide 71
Milan Series Getting Started
Using Milan Loudspeakers withSubwoofers
1. Connect the full range signal from the mixer
rst to the subwoofer and then run a link from
the subwoofer to the Milan loudspeaker.
2. Move the LOW CUT switch on the Milan speaker to
the 100Hz (up) position to avoid overlap with the
subwoofer’s frequency range.
Using Milan as a Floor Monitor
1. Activate the LOW CUT switch to prevent
boominess from proximity with the oor.
2. Rotate the BASS CONTROL knob counter-
clockwise if vocals require furtherintelligibility.
NOTE: If drums appear in the monitor mix, EQ the
kick drum sparingly in the bass frequencies,
preferably by cutting rather thanboosting.
WARNING! Make sure that any
speaker stands you use are capable of
taking the weight of the loudspeaker,
and that stands are placed on a at, level and
stable surface. Make sure that the legs do not
present a trip hazard. Becareful when lifting the
speaker onto the stand; checktheweight rst before
lifting and asksomeone else tohelp you ifneeded.
Milan Series Rigging Instructions
Using the M10 rigging points
Milan loudspeakers come outtted with
M10 reinforced threaded inserts to facilitate
aerialsuspension.
1. Plan the installation correctly, including
loudspeaker orientation and suspension.
2. Identify suitable suspension points in
the structure.
3. Purchase suitable forged eyebolts designed for
xed-installation applications.
4. Insert M10 load-rated shoulder eyebolts into the
threaded rigging points andtighten.
NOTE: The front rigging points should take the
majority of the load, while the rear rigging point
should be used only for angling the
cabinet downwards.
WARNING! Standard consumer
bolts are notsuitable for
theseapplications and may posea
riskof injury and death. Useonlyproperly forged
eyeboltsdesigned for xed installationapplications.
WARNING! For all installations,
providesecondary seismic restraint to
meet all applicable local codes.
5. When installing the cabinet sideways, pick
up from either of the two front eyebolt pairs,
and bridle the two rear eyebolt points to
provide a single pull-back for adjusting the
downward angle.
Wall Mounting
The Milan loudspeaker can be conveniently wall
mounted using the PB-55 pole mount wall bracket,
which simply locates into the pole mount socket in
the bottom of the cabinet.
1. Fix the bracket to the wall using
suitable fasteners.
2. Mount the loudspeaker onto the pole
mount bracket.
3. Rotate and angle the loudspeaker to
optimise coverage.
4. Tighten the brackets locking mechanism to
prevent the loudspeaker from being
inadvertently removed.
