loudspeaker. When the relevant tappings have been selected add the individual wattages required at all speakers and select an amplifier with a rating equal to or exceeding the total wattage required. All of the transformer primaries should be connected in parallel to the output of this amplifier. If for example, you select the 30watt transformer tap, it means that at full rated amplifier output the speaker will receive the full 30 watts.
9. Hardware The i6AW ICT can be wall or ceiling mounted using the MB6 (optional) bracket (fig 1.) which is designed to offer the maximum flexibility in selecting the desired angles. The MB6 is supplied with M8 bolts for fixing to the loudspeaker (fig1.& 2). After fixing the bracket to the wall or ceiling remove the plastic plugs from the top and bottom of the loudspeaker. Position the cabinet at the required angle as shown and tighten the M8 Bolts to fix the loudspeaker in position.
