Recommended Amplifier Power Output
Connect amps rated from 600 W @ 4 W RMS to 800 W
RMS @ 4 W per amp channel to power the PREMIUM

per channel.

An electrical connection between the cord and input
jack is not established until the Speakon connector
locks into place. Twist the Speakon connector clock-

1 Aligning Cabinets with

DuoTilt™

The novel integrated DuoTilt™ pole mount allows
sound energy to be utilized far more efficiently.
With two angles of tilt to choose from, 3° and 7°, the
enclosure can be aimed directly at the audience.
The cabinet is stabilized at its center of gravity – no
wobbling, unwanted tilting, or unintentional turning.

Your choice of DuoTilt™ angle – 3° or 7° – depends
on the required speaker height and the size of the
room. If you set mid/high units on fully extended
tripods or mounting poles, select 7° to minimize
ceiling reflections.

If you want to address an audience where more
listeners are farther away from the speakers, use the
HK Audio® DuoTilt™ at the 3° angle.

Mono Tilt 3™ (PR:O 8 A) offers one angle of tilt.
