or ceiling. Baffle angle of the monitor may
be
adjusted
by
raising
or
lowering
one
pair
of
supporting
chains
at
the
anchor
points.
Figure

illustrates
a
typical
ceiling-mounted
system.
When
the
cabinet
is
hung
‘bass-side-up’,
the
network/
equalizer
assembly
may
be
removed,
rotated
180
degrees,
and
reinstalled
to
maintain a right-side-up orientation.
Optional Mounting Base
If
the
discriminating
listener
wishes
to
use the Studio Monitor Speaker System in
the
home
environment,
the
optional
mounting
base
may
be
secured
to
the
bottom
of
the
cabinet.
To
install
the
optional
mounting
base,
position
your
Studio
Monitor
Speaker
System
on
one
side or the top, using a carpeted surface
to
protect
the
finish
of
the
cabinet.
DO
NOT
lay
the
system
on
its
front
side,
because the grille coverings may be dam
aged. Position the base against the bot
tom
of
the
cabinet,
rubber
feet
facing
outward,
aligning
the
pilot
screw
holes.
Install the supplied screws (No. 8 x
2V2"
for Model 19 and No. 10 x IV
2" for Model
15
to
secure
the
base
to
the
cabinet.
Tighten all screws.
Altec Studio Monitor Speaker Systems are
designed
to
meet
the
stringent
specifica
tions
of
extended
frequency
response,
low
distortion
and
wide
dynamic
range
that are required for use in recording and
broadcasting
studios.
The
bass
loud
speaker
(woofer)
produces
extended
low-
frequency
response
even
when
driven
at
exceptionally
high
power
levels.
Two
fre
quency
adjustment
controls
(high
and
mid-range)
are
provided
to
adapt
the
Studio
Monitor
Speaker
Systems
to
a
wide
range
of
acoustic
environments,
including
audition
rooms,
recording
studio
control
room
monitoring,
remix
studios,
mastering
rooms,
broadcast
studio
moni
toring
and
playback,
auditoriums,
night
clubs,
conference
rooms,
theaters,
churches,
and
other
professional
applications.
All of these Studio Monitor Speaker Sys
tems
combine
excellent
overall
band
width,
low
distortion,
uniform
dispersion
and
extended
frequency
response.
Major
differences
between
the
larger
(Model
19
and
smaller
(Model
15
systems
are
sensitivity,
acoustic
output
and
enclosure
size.
For
applications
where
sensitivity
and
acoustic
output
are
of
major impor
tance,
the
larger
Model
19
should
be
used. Where space is at a premium and
slight
reduction
in
sensitivity
and
acoustic
output
is
not
detrimental,
the
smaller
Model
15
becomes
the
logical
selection.
Wall or Ceiling Mounting
For
many
professional
applications
the
Studio
Monitor
Speaker
System
is
hung
or
suspended
from
a
wall
or
ceiling.
A
recommended
type
of
installation
utilizes
four
V4
"-20
eyebolts
which
are
secured
in
the
sides
of
the
cabinet
with
flat
washers
and
nuts.
The
low-frequency
loudspeaker
must
be
removed
to
install
the
eyebolts.
The
Studio
Monitor
Speaker
System
is
then
suspended
by
the
four
eyebolts
with
a
lightweight
chain
(200-
pound pull) from anchor points in the wall
