Positioning and Mounting Instructions
General Positioning Tips
Y Operating a microphone or turntable in front of a speaker is a sure formula
for feedback and/or rumble problems, so always place the Expedition in
front of any mics or turntables that are being used.
Y Use the Expedition upright for all Ofront-of-house� PA applications;
use it in its tilt-back position only for onstage monitoring.
Y Always raise the speakers as high above the audience as is practicable
for maximum coverage.
Y Use sufficient enclosures for the space youOre in. The larger the space,
the more speakers will be required.
Pole-Mounting
The underside of the Expedition contains a 1-3/8" stand mount socket that
allows it to be raised up on any standard speaker pole mounting (such as the
Ultimate Support Systems TS-30 or TS-33 speaker stands). Pole-mounting is
generally advisable when you want to maximize the distance that the
Expedition covers (sometimes called speaker Othrow�).
If you are using an EX500 subwoofer, you can use its integral pole mount to
place an EX10, EX20 or EX30 immediately above it, creating a complete
column of sound.
Fly Mounting, Wall Mounting, and Ceiling Mounting
As shown in the illustration below, the top panel of the Expedition contains a
number of fly points, located in compartments to the left and right of the
wireless receiver compartment. The covers placed over these compartments
are simply attached with double-sided sticky tape, so just pull up to remove.
