IntroductionThank you for choosing TAPCO Series 69 sound reinforcement loudspeakers. The TAPCO
product line hails back to the days of TAPCO Corporation, Greg Mackie’s first company.
TAPCO revolutionized the audio industry back in 1969 with the very first 6-channel mixer
specifically designed for keyboards and rock ‘n’ roll.
In essence, TAPCO redefined the price/performance ratio and made high-quality
professional audio equipment accessible to virtually anyone. Today, TAPCO is reborn
with the same ideals and is backed by the world-class engineering and manufacturing
horsepower of LOUD Technologies. The Series 69 were designed by the same experts
responsible for Mackie’s best-selling SRM450 active loudspeakers and tweaked by the
expert loudspeaker engineers at EAW.
The TAPCO Series 69 loudspeakers feature precision low-frequency woofers and 1-inch
high-output compression drivers (except for the subwoofer) with built-in protection circuitry.
These versatile loudspeakers can be used in a variety of applications, including live
sound reinforcement and music playback.
What me, read a manual?
Before you begin, please make sure you read the Safety Instructions on page 2 and
Getting Started on page 4.
Your new TAPCO® Series 69 loudspeakers are designed to set up quickly and operate
easily. We know it’s often seen as a sign of weakness to read a manual, along with asking
for directions when lost, but we hope you will read the rest of the manual, at least while
nobody is looking.
It is important to keep your receipt in a safe place, and not a bad idea to write your
product information here for future reference (i.e., insurance claims, tech support, return
authorization, etc.).
