User manual MARTIN AUDIO W3

[. . . ] 3. 1 W0. 5 and WM0. 5 The W0. 5 is a miniature high performance loudspeaker suited to a variety of applications from sports bars to live sound infill. It is a passive two-way system featuring an 8" (200mm) bass driver and a 1" (25mm) ferrofluid cooled HF driver on a 70 x 50 degree horn. The WM0. 5 is a wedge monitor version of the W0. 5, utilising the same drive units and horn. In its wedge configuration, the horn of the WM0. 5 exhibits a 50 x 70 degree dispersion pattern to increase the listening window in the vertical plane. [. . . ] Run cables so that they do not present a trip hazard which could pull the speaker over. When used outdoors in the wind, it may be necessary to add some weight to the base of the stand. When using a pole mount with a sub-bass system such as the WS2A, observe similar precautions. 4. 2 Stacking Ensure that the floor or stage is level and solid. Do not stack speakers too high outdoors where winds could topple the stack. Be aware that speakers producing very high power levels can move or creep. To avoid this, place friction material between the floor and speaker and between each speaker. 4. 3 Rigging and Suspension WARNING: Suspending the system should only be done by qualified personnel following safe rigging practices. Secure fixings to the building structure are vital. Seek help from architects, structural engineers or other specialists if in any doubt. All material © 2007.

Never suspend one enclosure from another to form an array or cluster using these fittings. The W2 and W3 are provided with optional MAN flying points for array construction. The common practice of using commercially available eye bolts for suspension should only be undertaken with great caution. Eye bolts are strongest along the thread axis. Angling the enclosures will result in an angle pull and it is important to use eye bolts that are safe in these circumstances. Only forged shoulder eye bolts should be considered and it is important that the thread length is at least 30mm. A flat washer should be inserted between the eyebolt and the enclosure.
