Installation

A 1-3/8" (35mm) socket is provided in the bottom of the cabinet for mounting the loudspeaker on a speaker stand.

The ART500 can be suspended with approved rigging hardware. Always use at least two M10 threaded inserts located on opposite sides of the enclosure. The speaker must be positioned so that the weight of the enclosure is equally distributed over the two inserts.

WARNING: Never attempt to suspend the ART Series loudspeakers by their handles. Consult a professional rigger or structural engineer prior to suspending loudspeakers from a structure not intended for that use. Always know the working load limit of the structure supporting the loudspeaker array. Always make sure that the rigging hardware minimum rating is at least five times the actual load.
