Product Usage Instructions

Check Polarity and Speaker Impedance
Check the correct polarity in the wiring, and avoid connecting speakers with impedance lower than that indicated in the amplifier used.

Underpowering vs. Overpowering

Ensure that the amplifier used does not underpower or overpower the speakers.

Speaker Installation
Check that the structure on which the speaker is installed is reliable and firmly anchor the speaker to it. Do not place the speakers on moving surfaces. Do not touch or bump into the woofer and tweeter to avoid sound distortion.

Speaker Cable Installation
Depending on the type of installation, speaker cables from the amplifier can be buried directly. However, it is recommended to use a 25-40mm ID duct to protect the cables from possible physical damage if future interventions or changes are planned in the installation area.

LED Light Module
The ZEN510/510T, ZEN930/930T, ZEN980/980A models are provided with a white LED light module with a specific connection. The LED light must be powered by an external 12V DC power supply or by a LED driver/dimmer LED at 12V DC.

70/100V Connection
The total number of speakers multiplied by the nominal value of the transformer may not exceed the output power (in watts) of the amplifier at 70V/100V. For example, if there are 5 speakers with a nominal power of 50W each, an amplifier of at least 250W (5 x 50) is required. It is recommended to use an amplifier with a power greater than 20% to avoid saturating the power. In this case, an amplifier that delivers about 300W is recommended.

IMPORTANT

• In the constant effort to improve its products, Vivaldi srl reserves the right to bring modifications to the products without advance notice. In case of doubts, please consult a qualified professional or directly contact Vivaldi to the number +39 0421 307825.
• Speakers and all theirs parts and accessories shall be used only for the purpose they were manufactured.
• Vivaldi srl, is not liable for any direct or indirect damage to things and/or people, arising from a misuse / improper use / use other than the one is designed and manufactured for. Some parts of this product are small, so pay attention and keep out of reach of children.

WARNING

• Check that the structure on which the speaker is installed is reliable and that the speaker is fi rmly anchored to it.
• Do not place the speakers on moving surfaces.
• Do not touch or bump into the woofer and tweeter. If the latter are damaged, the sound will be distorted.

CONNECTION

Depending on the type of installation, speaker cables from the amplifier can be buried directly, however the use of a 25-40mm ID duct may be required to protect the cables from possible physical damage if future interventions or changes are planned in the installation area (recommended).
Recommendations:

• Solder the wires together and use a waterproof heat shrink sheath to seal.
• Use watertight connectors.
• Make connections with water-resistant crimp joints.
• Use watertight muffle joints available at electrical equipment dealers.

EXAMPLE 70/100V CONNECTION
The total number of speakers multiplied by the nominal value of the transformer may not exceed the output power (in watts) of the amplifi er at 70V/100V. The example below shows 5 total speakers of 50W nominal each, you will need an amplifi er of at least 250W (5) x (50). We recommend not saturating the power of the amplifi er but using an amplifi er with a power greater than 20%; in this case, an amplifi er that delivers about 300W.

EXAMPLE OF 8Ω SYSTEM CONNECTION

• Check the correct polarity in the wiring, and avoid connecting speakers with impedance lower than that indicated in the amplifier used.

UNDERPOWERING VS. OVERPOWERING

• Most speaker damage is caused by amplifiers with too little power (wattage).
• An overdriven amplifier clips the waveforms and sends 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 volume until the distortion is no longer present.
• Damage caused by operating the speakers at distorted volume levels is not covered by the warranty.
