9. 9. 9. 9. Coverage Patterns of the CA Speakers
The mid-high systems can be operated in a vertical or horizontal (i.e. as a stage monitor) position. The cover-
age 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 position and coverage angles of the horn.

9.1 Changing the Coverage Pattern
To turn the horn, follow these steps: To turn the horn, follow these steps: To turn the horn, follow these steps: To turn the horn, follow these steps:
1. 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.
2. Remove the screws from the high frequency horn (also using a 3 mm Allen key). Loosen the high fre-
quency 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. Should the horn adhere to the
foam rubber attached below, release it using a screwdriver or something similar to gently lever it up.
3. Rotate the horn 90° and screw the horn on tightly again (do not force it!).
4. 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.
