A typical wiring configuration is shown in Figure 7. It is highly advisable to support the unit while these connections are being made. When mounting the speaker in a corner mount configuration, a right angle XLR connector such as Neutrik #NC3MRC or equiv. is required for the signal connections (see Figure 7).

(1). Insert one of the 3/8-16-thread Phillips-head screws through the remaining clip and, with the clip pointing up, thread the screw finger-tight into the lower mtg. hole on the enclosure (2, 3). Level the clip and tighten securely with a #3 right-angle Phillips screwdriver. Even though the
