PRODUCT APPEARANCE

INSTALLATION

Read these instructions carefully before installing and using the product.
When the speaker is installed on ceilings or walls, check that the structure is reliable and the speaker is firmly attached.
Do not use nails, adhesives or other unauthorized devices. Long-term use and vibrations may cause it to fall easily.
Do not listen to sound at a very high level when you are changing the input source (for example, from FM Tuner to CD player). Please be sure the power amplifier is turned off or master volume is at lower level.
The installer is responsible of installation. Please pay attention to install speakers according to local safety regulations.
When manage the speaker, be careful not to touch or load the front of the speaker net with hard facing, otherwise it will deform the net.

5.1. Speaker Connection
EVOCA 20P sound projector is equipped with a built-in line transformer with 3 power taps, to better adapt each speaker to the type of line (constant voltage @ 100V), the power of the  amplifier, and the number of speakers in the system.
When connect the speaker to the 100V line, pay attention to wire colors. Please refer to the following table when connect them to the line.

UNDER-POWERING VS OVER-POWERING

Most speaker damages are caused by amplifiers with too little power (wattage).
Overdriven amplifiers clip output waveforms and send distortion to the speakers.
Clipping is usually audible; it may vary from a harsh sound to a fuzzy or unclear sound.
If you hear this condition at loud volume levels, turn down the amplifier volume until the distortion is no longer present. Damages caused by operating the speakers at distorted volume levels are no covered by  warranty.
NOTE: Total number of speakers multiplied by tap value cannot exceed the output power (in watts) of the 100V amplifier. If, for instance, you’re going to install 5 EVOCA 20P sound  projectors with 20W power (white wire) on a 100V line, you need an amplifier with at least 5×20=100W RMS power. A good rule of thumb is to use an amplifier with 20% greater power; in  this case, an amplifier with 120W or more.
