6. Coverage Patterns of the SP Speakers
The mid-high systems can be operated in a vertical or horizontal (i.e. as a stage moni-
tor) position. The coverage pattern of the speakers can be adapted to special needs by
a 90° rotatable horn.
The table below shows the coverage angles of a standing speaker: To determine the
coverage pattern of the high frequency horn, shine a flashlight through the front
covering at the level of the horn. You will find a silver stripe that determines the posi-
tion and coverage angles of the horn.

6.1 Changing the Coverage Pattern
To turn the horn, follow these steps:
1) Disconnect the power plug!
2) Remove the four grille mounting screws on the top and bottom of the speakers
with a 3 mm Allen key and remove the grille from the speaker enclosure.
3) Make sure that no objects fall into the enclosure!
4) Remove the screws from the high frequency horn (also using a 3 mm allen key).
Loosen the high frequency horn by using both hands, palms to the outside, to
grasp into the horn and lift the horn with even pressure from the palms of your
hands towards the outside. Never use a screwdriver or similar objects to reach be-
hind the edge of the horn, as this could damage it.
5) Rotate the horn 90° and screw the horn on tightly again (do not force it!)
6) Screw the grille on tightly.
If the coverage angle needs to be changed often, make sure that the horn is not always
rotated in the same direction, as the connecting cables, when twisted, may cause the
contacts of the driver to become loose. Open wires may hit other live parts: Danger
of electrical shock.
