Warning! Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be attempted by individuals who have a thorough knowledge of the techniques and regulations of suspending objects overhead. Electro-Voice strongly recommends that loudspeakers be suspended taking into account all current national, federal, state, and local laws and regulations. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure all loudspeakers are safely installed in accordance with all such requirements. When loudspeakers are suspended, Electro-Voice strongly recommends the system be inspected at least once per year or as laws and regulations require. If any sign of weakness or damage is detected, remedial action should be taken immediately. The user is responsible for making sure the wall, ceiling, or structure is capable of supporting all objects suspended overhead. Any hardware used to suspend a loudspeaker not associated with Electro-Voice is the responsibility of others. Safety point As an added safety measure, it is suggested the user install an extra suspension point back to the building structural supports. This safety point should have as little slack as possible (less than 1-inch is preferable). Figure1.1: Redundant safety point

3.1 Installing the speaker

For safety, ensure the mounting surface supports more than the weight of the speaker. Use only industry-accepted fasteners and mounting methods when mounting the U-Bracket. Consult an expert if you are unsure.

Warning! Use a support system which has sufficient wind load strength to comply with the applicable codes and standards. Disregarding this warning could result in damage to the product and major injury or possibly death may occur.

Caution! It is the installer's responsibility to determine and use the proper mounting hardware for the wall construction type. Disregarding this caution could result in damage to the product and personal injuries may occur.

Notice! Connections shall not be made with rigid conduit but with flexible conduit or wiring only. Installing the U-Bracket To install the U-bracket, do the following:

1. Draw a level line.

2. Align screw holes on the level line.

3. Install two mounting screws to secure the U-Bracket to the wall.

Installing the speaker To install the speaker, do the following: 1. Wire the speaker, as shown in the wiring section.EVID Surface Mount S Series - X Models Installation and wiring | en 9 Electro-Voice Installation Manual 2022-03 | 07 | F.01U.345.358

If there is no sound, check all electronics are on, the signal routing is correct, the source is active; the volume is turned up, and so on. Correct/Repair/Replace as necessary. If there is sound, the problem is in the wiring. Wiring Verify you have connected the correct wire pairs to the amplifier. Play something at low level through the amplifier (for example, from a CD player or tuner). Connect the test speaker in parallel with the malfunctioning line. If the sound has gone or is very weak, the line has a short in it (possibly a severe scrape, pinch, or staple puncture). If the sound level is normal the wire is open (possibly a cut wire or missed connection). Using the test speaker, move down the line and test each connection/junction until you find the problem and correct it. Observe proper polarity. Verify you have the inputs and outputs connected to the correct wires. If the subwoofer input panel is not correctly wired, there will be little or no sound. Observe proper polarity. Poor Low- Frequency Response Speakers Wired Out- of-Polarity When two speakers are connected out of polarity (out of phase), the low frequencies will cancel each other acoustically. Carefully observe the wire markings or tracers on your speaker wires. Verify the amplifier (+) terminal is connected to the red speaker terminals and the amplifier (-) terminal is connected to the black speaker terminals. Improperly Wired Subwoofer Panel Using a test speaker as described above, verify all amplifier and speaker wires are connected to their proper terminals with the correct polarity. Reversing just one set of amplifier wires can cut out all bass output from the subwoofer. Intermittent Output such as, Crackling or Distortion Faulty Connection Check all connections at amplifier and speakers to ensure they are clean and tight. If the problem persists, it may be in the amplifier or wiring. See other actions above. Constant Noise such as Buzzing, Hissing, Humming Defective Amplifier or other Electronic Device If the noise is present but no program material is playing, the likely cause is the signal chain in the electronics. Evaluate each component as necessary to isolate the problem. Poor System Grounding or Ground Loop Check and correct the system grounding, as required. If these suggestions do not solve your problem, contact your nearest Electro-Voice dealer or Electro-Voice distributor.16 en | Technical data (for non-UL, general use installations) EVID Surface Mount S Series - X Models 2022-03 | 07 | F.01U.345.358 Installation Manual Electro-Voice 5 Technical data (for non-UL, general use installations) Frequency response (-3 dB): 90 Hz - 20 kHz
