Stacking the Small Array Frame

The small array frame comes with two aluminum I-bars used for aligning and securing the frame to QSC’s “215” subwoofer.

To use the I-bars, simply slide each one into the small frame’s L-track and secure with a stud fitting. Then, turn the frame over (I-bars on the bottom) and slide the exposed I-bars into the subwoofer’s L-track. Secure the I-bar with a stud fitting. Note that the stud fittings used are not required to be load rated as they only retain the I-bars from moving laterally.

When stacking a small array frame on top of QSC’s 215SB or PCM cabinet, use the I-beam inserts (1 in each L-track) to assure proper align- ment and to firmly secure the frame to the 215 cabinet. Secure using stud fittings.

Do not stack more than four (4) enclosures on a small array frame.

Care

The socket head cap screws used on the WideLine products are load-rated high-strength steel, not stainless steel. Stainless screws are not rated to handle the necessary load. Should any hardware require replacement, contact QSC’s Technical Services for spare parts.

The rigging hardware is stainless steel which has been black oxide coated. The oxide coating is not corrosion-free.

We suggest wiping down all screws, pins, hardware, and frames with LPS ® Dry Film Lube or Starrett M1® All Purpose Lube before and after outside gigs to help prevent oxidation. This will not only prevent the formation of rust and other oxides, but also provide lubrication, adding to the longevity and ease-of-use of the WideLine product.

The WL 2102 is particularly well-suited for a variety of environments, including live performances, theaters, auditoriums, and corporate events.

One of the standout features of the WL 2102 is its dual 10-inch low-frequency drivers, which provide powerful bass response and clarity across a broad frequency range.
