General Notes on Safety for Loudspeaker Systems

Mounting systems may only be used for those loudspeaker systems authorized by the manufacturer and only with the mounting accessories specified by the manufacturer in the installation instructions. Read and heed the manufacturer’s installation instructions. The indicated load-bearing capacity cannot be guaranteedand the manufacturer will not be liable for damages in the event of improper installation or the use of unauthorized mounting accessories.
The system’s load-bearing capacity cannot be guaranteed and the manufacturer will not be liable for damages in the event that loudspeakers, mounting accessories, and connecting and attaching components are modified in any way.
Components affecting safety may only be repaired by the manufactureror authorized agents, otherwise the operating permit will be voided.
Installation may be performed qualified personnel only, and then only at pick- points with sufficient load-carrying capacity and in compliance with local building regulations. Use only the mounting hardware specified by the manufacturer in the installation instructions (screws, anchors, etc.). Take all the precautions necessary to ensure bolted connections and other threaded locking devices will not loosen.’
Fixed and portable installations (in this case, speakers and mounting accessories) must be secured by two independent safeties to prevent them from falling. Safeties must be able to catch accessories or parts that are loose or may become loose. Ensure compliance with the given national regulations when using connecting, attaching, and rigging devices. Factor potential dynamic forces (jerk) into the equation when determining the proper size and load- bearing capacity of safeties.

Be sure to observe speaker stands’ maximum load-bearing capacity. Note that for reasons of design and construction, most speaker stands are approved to bear centric loads only; that is, the speakers’ mass has to be precisely centered and balanced. Ensure speaker stands are set up stably and securely. Take appropriate addedmeasures to secure speaker stands, for example when:
– the floor or ground surface does not provide a stable, secure base.
– they are extended to heights that impede stability.
– high wind pressure may be expected.
– there is the risk that they may be knocked over by people.
Special measures may become necessary as precautions against unsafe audience behavior. Do not set up speaker stands in evacuationoutes and emergency exits. Ensure corridors are wide enough and putproper barriers and markings in place when setting  peaker stands upin passageways. Mounting and dismounting are especially hazardous asks. Use aids suitable for this purpose. Observe the given national regulations when doing so.

Wear proper protection (in particular, a helmet,gloves, and safety shoes) and use only suitable means of ascent (ladders, scaffolds, etc.) during installation. Compliance with this requirement is the sole responsibility of the company performing theinstallation.

WARNING! After installation, inspect the system comprised of the mounting fixtures and loudspeakers to ensure it is properly secured.
The operator of loudspeaker systems (fixed or portable) must regularly inspect or task a third party to regularly inspect all system components in accordance with the given country’s regulations and have possible defects repaired immediately.
We also strongly recommend maintaining a logbook or the like to document all inspections. Also be sure to provide sufficient safety margins for the rigging points used for flown systems. Observe the given national regulations when doing so.
Professional loudspeaker systems can produce harmful volume levels. Even prolonged exposure to seemingly harmless levels (starting at about 95 dBA SPL) can cause permanent hearing damage!
Therefore we recommend that everyone who is exposed to high volume levels produced by loudspeaker systems wears professional hearing protection (earplugs or earmuffs).

General Information

Unpacking and Inventorying
When you first unpack your LINEAR 9 speaker cabinet, take a quick inventory to make sure it comes complete with the manual and Powercon mains cable.

Connectors and Controls

LINEAR 9 210 LTA • LINEAR 9 110 XA • LINEAR 9 112 XALINEAR 9 118 Sub A • LINEAR 9 118 Sub BA

1.  Input
   This XLR/ 1/4″ (6.35 mm) combo jack provides a balanced input for analog signals.
   • The mid/high units have one input channel.
   • The two subwoofers have two inputs, one each for the left and right signals. The two channels are equal and merged post-preamp, so you can use either one in mono mode.100-240 V~ 50-60 Hz

2. Thru
   Use this parallel, balanced XLR output to send the signal routed into the Input through to other components. This output remains active even when the electronic components are deactivated. The subwoofer has two of these

3. Gain
   Use this knob to adjust the input gain for the incoming signal.
   • The control range for the mid/high units sweeps from –∞ (mute) to +6 dB.
   • The preamp Gain control on each of the two subwoofers addresses both channels with a control range sweeping from -6 to +6 dB. The center-notched 12 o’clock position is 0 dB in both cases. Heads up: The Gain setting does not affect the signal sent to the DSP Out.

4. Input/Limiter LED
   This LED lights up green to indicate incoming signals and red to indicate signal peaks. The LED briefly flashes red to tell you the Limiter is responding to signal peaks. If it stays red, turn down the Gain knob.

5. DSP Out
   This balanced XLR port taps the analog signal routed in via the Input. You can use the internal DSP to process this signal. This way, the DSP Out can serve as a network interface that lets you integrate another non-networkenabled active speaker. In the
   factory default setup, the unprocessed input signal is routed to the DSP Out regardless of the selected preset and current position of the Gain knob.

6. Ethernet In /Thru
   Use the two Ethercon ports to integrate the speaker into a network. They accept RJ45 and Ethercon (NE8 MX, NE8 MX6, NE8 MC) plugs. Use the Ethernet Thru port to forward the network signal.
   Always use S/STP or S/FTP cables to shield against electromagnetic interference. We recommend CAT6 cables. A separate manual explains how to integrate and remotely control speakers in a network. You’ll find it posted on the LINEAR 9 downloads page at www.hkaudio.com. For a brief description of the DSP functions, see section 8 Preset.

7. Data
   This LED lights up orange when data flows through the network connector.

8. Preset
   Use the Preset selection button to call up factory presets or a user preset you can configure via the remote DSP CONTROL software. Tap the select button once to scroll through Presets 1 through 4.
   A separate manual explains how to program the four remote user presets. You will find it on the LINEAR 9 download page at www.hkaudio.com.

Factory presets 1 to 3 address the speaker only and not the DSP Out.
Heads up: If you are operating the speaker in a network connected to the remote DSP CONTROL software, you can configure the DSP Out independently even when using factory presets 1 to 3. To learn more about this, consult the separate DSP CONTROL manual. You will find it on the LINEAR 9 download page at www.hkaudio.com.

The Remote Preset

Remote| This lets you call up a user preset that you previously stored via DSP CONTROL for the speaker as well as for the DSP
Out. The speakers does not need to be connected to the remote software to do this.
---|---

The remote preset’s default setup is identical to factory preset 1 (Stand Alone/Flat/Front).
You can access the following DSP functions via the remote DSP CONTROL software and save your settings in user presets:
Fully parametric 10-band EQ with variable filter characteristics for each frequency band, high-pass and low-pass filters with variable filter characteristics, Limiter, Delay, Polarity, Level, and Mute You can configure these parameters separately and independently for the speaker and its DSP Out.

Screenshot of the remote DSP CONTROL software. You can download this software free of charge at the LINEAR 9 product page at www.hkaudio.com. The speaker and DSP Out parameters are identical, but the powerful onboard DSP lets you configure each set independently.

9 Power
This rocker switch turns the power on and off. Set it to Power to turn the electronic components on and to Off to disconnect them from the mains power supply. The Power switch does not affect the Powercon Link port. See section 12 below for more on this.
10 Power-LED
This LED lights up green when the electronic components are getting mains power.
11 Mains Input
Use the factory-included Powercon mains cord to connect this socket to a power outlet. Insert the push-pull connector and turn it clockwise to make sure the Powercon cord engages and locks. To unlock it, pull the Powercon plug’s locking mechanism towards the cable and turn it counterclockwise. 12 Link
This socket can power up to three additional LINEAR 9 speaker cabinets. Hardwired to the Mains Input, it is not affected by the Power switch setting. The Link circuit goes live the moment you connect the Mains Input to a power source. This is why you must make sure all downstream devices are switched off before you connect them to the Link port 13 Auto Sleep
Use this recessed button to switch energy-saving Auto Sleep mode on and off. Your speaker leaves the factory with the Auto Sleep button pressed tenable this mode. This function puts the electronic components to sleep when four and a half hours pass without the speaker registering an audio signal, data sent to the Ethercon ports, or an adjustment of a button or knob. The only way to wake it up is by switching the Power button off and on again or patching an analog audio signal into the Input. Heads up: You cannot wake up the speaker via the Ethercon ports. There is but one way to deactivate the Auto Sleep function – by ‘unpressing’ the button to set it to the up position.

 An Overview of the Various LINEAR 9 Models

The LINEAR 9 series consists of the LINEAR 9 210 LTA, LINEAR 9 110 XA and LINEAR 9 112 XA mid/high units and the two LINEAR 9 118 Sub A and LINEAR 9 118 Sub BA subwoofers.The housings of the multifunctional LINEAR 9 110 XA and LINEAR 9 112 XA models are angled 30° so you can also set them sideways for use monitors. TheLINEAR 9 210 LTA cabinet is shaped to enable you to quickly and easily set up clusters. All mid/high untis are loaded with rotatable horns. The directivity of each cabinet’s horn is optimized for its primary purpose – that is, the most frequently used application. You need tools to rotate the horns, so they are not conducive to frequent adjustment. The idea is to optimize the throw pattern for the cabinet’s primary application.

• The LINEAR 9 210 LTA MCT horn’s horizontal directivity is 60° for standalone applications. If you deploy the LINEAR 9 210 LTA in a cluster, be sure  torotate the horn so it has a  horizontal directivity of 25°.
• The LINEAR 9 110  XA cab sports a 10″woofer and a horn with a wide 80°x60° throw pattern to provide uniform near-field coverage.  LINEAR 9 112 XA  features a 12″ woofer and a horn with a medium 70°x50° throw pattern.

Setting Up Speakers

4.1 The mid/high units
LINEAR 9 mid/high units may be stacked on subwoofers, mounted on speaker stands or poles, installed with wall brackets, or flown with the proper rigging hardware. All Mid/High models have a DuoTilt 3°/7° flang

Placing Speakers on Stands and Poles

The all Mid/High units are equipped with the HK Audio DuoTilt 3°/7°, a special type of pole mount for 35-mm speaker stands and poles that provides tilt angles of -3° and -7°.
General Info about Setting Up with Speaker Stands
Heads-up: Always make sure the speaker stand is on solid footing and be sure to observe the manufacturer’s instructions as to its maximum load-bearing capacity.

Caution!

• Use only speaker stands that are stable enough to prevent accidental tipping. Ensure the speaker stand is designed to handle the cabinet’s weight. Adjustable stands’ highest setting must be limited to prevent the combination of speaker stand and speaker from tipping. This applies when setting the stand on a flat, horizontal surface.
•  When setting up on an uneven or sloping surface, make sure the speaker stand’s base is secured to prevent accidental tipping, either by attaching suitable weights to the base or taking other measures to secure the stand.
• The use of any other fixtures or fittings can result in instability that may result in injury.
• Setting Up with the Tilt Unit
  HK Audio offers the Tilt Unit as an optional accessory to secure speakers stacked on subwoofers. It screws into the M20 mount on the LINEAR 9 118 Sub A/LINEAR 9 118 Sub BA like a speaker pole to prevent the top units from moving. The two -3° and -7° tilt positions of the DuoTilt on the Mid/ High units can also serve to secure the stacked speaker.

Heads up! When you stack speakers without using the Tilt Unit to fix them in place, be sure to secure the mid/high units – for example, with a lashing strap to hold them in place.

• Rigging

You can fl y the XA models either from their built-in rigging points using steel cables or chains and the AP-8 attachment or using the appropriate rigging harness. They have specially reinforced rigging points with 2×8 mm threads designed to accept the optionally available HK Audio TB- 28N tilt bracket.
The LINEAR 9 210 LTA can be fl own using the optionally available TB-210NQIt bolts into the MultiGrip handles. See the mounting instructions included with the brackets for more on this.

• Clustering the LINEAR 9 210 LTA
The LINEAR 9 210 LTA has built-in, fast-mount hardware that makes it easy to cluster two or more units.
When stacking speakers, place LINEAR 9 210 LTA units on the subwoofers with their side panels touching. The rubber bumpers on one cabinet fi t it into indentations in the neighboring wood cabinet to properly align the two speakers on the horizontal plane. Fix the preconfi gured cluster in place by screwing down the top cluster couplers to connect the neighboring speakers:You can also fl y one LINEAR 9 210 LTA or a cluster of two with the optional TB-210NQ tilt bracket. If you want to fl y two speakers with this tilt bracket, you have to additionally secure the cluster with the bottom cluster couplers. This is mandatory.To get the best audio results when clustering LINEAR 9 210 LTAs, you will have to rotate the two adjacent horns to set them to a horizontal directivity
of 25°. The angles are clearly marked on the horns. Select the appropriate preset on the back of the speakers for the given type of cluster.

4.2 LINEAR 9 118 Sub A / LINEAR 9 118 Sub BA
Deploy the LINEAR 9 118 Sub A as you would any other direct radiating subwoofer. However, do not stack the bass bins when confi guring cardioid setups. Instead, place them side by side, maintaining a distance of at least one meter from walls.
Do not stack LINEAR 9 118 Sub BA subwoofers in cardioid setups. Instead, place them upright and array them side by side. Maintain a distance of at least one meter from walls for both cardioid setups.
You have two cardioid setups to choose from – Cardioid 1:1 and Cardioid 2:1.
A control on the back of the two subwoofers serves to select the appropriate preset. See section 2, 8 Preset, for more on this:Both setups attenuate the rearward sound pressure level by up to 34 dB, and boost the forward SPL around 2 dB.

When is it a good idea to go with a cardioid setup?
While speakers are able to throw problem on and behind the stage. And promoters are increasingly making demands to limit sound systems’ lowend reach, for  example, in festivaltents at urban venues.
Such demands for limiting low-range frequencies’ range are best met with cardioid setups. With their hardware appointments and fi lter sets, the two LINEAR 9 series subwoofers provide a fast, easy way of confi guring eff ective cardioid setups. midrange and high frequencies in directional patterns, low frequencies tend to radiate in all directions.

Excessive bass levels can often be a

Example Systems

5.1 Setting Up a 2.1 Stereo Syst

With the benefit of the LINEAR 9 118 Sub A’s onboard stereo preamp, you can easily set up a 2.1 system routing both the left and right channels into the LINEAR 9 118 Sub A and then forwarding their signals to the mid/high units via its two Thru ports. The LINEAR 9 110 XA’s wide throw patterns are perfect for this application.
