INTRODUCTION

General
Amate Audio would like to thank you for your confidence in our NITID Series. We suggest you to carefully read the following instructions in order to obtain the best results in performance.

Features and presentation

S26P

  • Passive acoustic system
  • NL4MP Speakon input & parallel output
  • 400 W program power
  • Sensitivity 1 W / 1 m: 95 dB
  • 2 x 6″ neodymium magnet woofers with 1.5” voice coil and fibre cone
  • 1″ titanium diaphragm neodymium magnet tweeter
  • 8Ω and 16Ω available

CONNECTIONS

Connection description
A) SPEAKON: T he S26P uses two NL4MP Speakon terminals and are duly prepared for a perfect connection in a parallel system. Terminal Pins +1/-1 must be always used, disregarding the +2/-2 which are not internally connected. Respect always the polarity +/-.

Fig. 1. NITID passive connectors

WARNING: It is strongly recommended to use a two-conductor high quality wire, non-shielded and two-coloured. We recommend using a minimum section of 4 mm2 for each conductor. Avoid long wire distances as they induce to important power and quality losses.

Configurations
Full-range stereo configuration
Connect each output of the amplifier LEFT/RIGHT to each cabinet using two independent wires. Full-Range parallel stereo configuration
Connect the amplifier’s output to the Speakon’s input of the first cabinet, always respecting the polarity positive +1, negative -1. Then, make a bridge from the first cabinet to the second one. Fig. 3. Full-range parallel stereo configuration

Passive configuration with subwoofer
There will be times when you will be interested in reinforcing your NITID Systems with subwoofer units, in passive mode. In this case only one amplifier will be used for the whole system.

Connect one of the outputs of the amplifier to the subwoofer through a wire. Then, make a bridge from the link Speakon connector of the subwoofer to its respective mid-high top unit, always respecting the correct polarity between both systems. Do the same with the other channel.

It is also correct, if the installation requires so, to make the connection in the opposite way, that is, from the amplifier to the top cabinet and then to the subwoofer. Fig. 4. Passive configuration with subwoofer

Bi-Amplified configuration with subwoofer
A wire with the maximum available section (4mm2 minimum) should link the low frequencies output channel of the amplifier to one of the subwoofers. Two subwoofers can be also connected by bridge one to another, as long as the polarity is strictly respected.

Connect the other output of the amplifier to the Full-Range cabinets.
It is also possible to use only one amplifier for the low reinforcement, connecting each one of the subwoofers to the two outputs of the amplifier and consequently, connecting the Full Range cabinets to a second amplifier.

WARNING: In order to allow a bridge connection between cabinets, each one of them has been provided with two Speakon connectors that allow the Input /Output function indistinctly. Terminal Pins +1/-1 must be always used, disregarding the +2/-2 which are not internally connected.

MOUNTING AND PLACEMENT

For a proper installation of the acoustic cabinet systems, it is strongly recommended to carefully read the following advices.

Placement
When possible, cabinets should be located in a high position, slightly inclined to the audience. If the loudspeakers are located too low, the listeners at the end of the room will not hear a good sound quality.


Fig. 7. Flying placement

Use with subwoofer or tripod
The S26P is equipped with a 35 mm socket for mounting the speaker on a subwoofer or tripod. Be careful not to use this system on non-flat surfaces as it may become unstable.

Rotatable logo
Grille’s logo can be rotated.

Flying
Only experienced people should fly speaker cabinets. Extreme care should be taken to assure the load bearing capabilities of the structures where the cabinets will be placed. Hanging hardware (as chains, eyebolts, lock pins…) should be regularly inspected and replaced if in doubt.

WARNING:  DO NOT SUSPEND THE CABINETS FROM THE HANDLES

Vertical flying with HR-LU and HR-LU/GT bar
The HR-LU and the HR-LU/GT are some optional accessories for flying on truss or ceiling (vertical orientation) one unit of S26P. Refer to “HR-LU instructions manual” and “HR-LU/GT instructions manual” for more information.
