OmniMount Brackets
The internal rigging points are also compatible with OmniMount series 120 wall and ceiling brackets.
To mount TCX cabinets with OmniMount brackets follow the instructions provided with the brackets.
Suspending with Eyebolts
TCX cabinets can be suspended using optional eyebolts coupled to the internal
rigging points provided on the top, bottom and sides and back. The simplest
method is to use the two rigging points on the top and a single pull-back rigging
point in the centre of the rear panel.
Remove the appropriate countersunk screws and replace them with shoulder
eyebolts, which must have a thread length of at least 18 mm. Use the rear rigging
point to angle the cabinet for optimum room coverage. Cabinets may be hung
upside down if required.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The mounting of a permanently installed sound system may be dangerous unless
undertaken by qualifi ed personnel with the required experience and certifi cation to perform the necessary
tasks. Walls, fl oors or ceilings must be capable of safely and securely supporting the actual load.
The mounting accessory used must be safely and securely fi xed both to the loudspeaker and to the wall,
oor or ceiling.
When mounting rigging components on walls, oors or ceilings, ensure that all fi xings and fasteners used
are of an appropriate size and load rating. Wall and ceiling claddings, and the construction and composition
of walls and ceilings, all need to be taken into account when determining whether a particular fi xing
arrangement can be safely employed for a particular load. Cavity plugs or other specialist fi xings, if required,
must be of an appropriate type, and must be fi tted and used in accordance with the makers instructions.
The operation of your speaker cabinet as part of a fl own system, if installed incorrectly and improperly,
can potentially expose persons to serious health risks and even death. In addition, please ensure that
electrical, mechanical and acoustic considerations are discussed with qualifi ed and certifi ed (by local state
or national authorities) personnel prior to any installation or fl ying.
Make sure that speaker cabinets are set up and “fl own” by qualifi ed and certifi ed personnel only,
using dedicated equipment and original parts and components delivered with the unit. If any parts or
components are missing please contact your Dealer before attempting to set up the system.
Be sure to observe the local, state and other safety regulations applicable in your country. MUSIC Group,
including the MUSIC Group companies listed on the enclosed “Service Information Sheet”, assume no liability
for any damage or personal injury resulting from improper use, installation or operation of the product.
Regular checks must be conducted by qualifi ed personnel to ensure that the system remains in a secure and
stable condition. Make sure that, where the speaker is fl own, the area underneath the speaker is free of human
traf c. Do not fl y the speaker in areas which can be entered or used by members of the public.
Speakers create a magnetic fi eld, even if not in operation. Therefore, please keep all materials which can
be affected by such fi elds (discs, computers, monitors etc) at a safe distance. A safe distance is usually
between 1 and 2 metres.

5. Lift out the horn and compression driver assembly. Disconnect the cables from the compression driver,
making a note of the polarity for later reconnection (fi g 5).
6. Reinstatement is a simple reversal of the above process. Reconnect the compression driver cables,
observing the correct polarity (white cable to the +ve terminal, green/white cable to the –ve terminal).
7. Replace the horn and driver in the cabinet.
8. Replace the horn fi xing screws and tighten.
