INTRODUCTION
The CURV 500 ISUB is a compact, passive bass-reflex subwoofer with a 10″ driver and a low mounting depth, specially designed and developed for the installation of CURV 500 systems. Its frequency response ranges from 47-150 Hz for a streamlined, dynamic bass reproduction with pressure and definition; the power capacity is 250 watts RMS. The elegant housing with texture paint and steel front grille features a speakON-compatible socket and a terminal block connection for inputs and eight M8 flight points. The ISUB is available in black or white, a flat wall or ceiling holder and a set of rubber feet are supplied.

CONNECTIONS, CONTROLS, AND INDICATORS

1. SPEAKON-COMPATIBLE SPEAKER CONNECTION
   2-pin speaker connector to connect the CURV500 installation amplifier LDCURV500IAMP.

2. TERMINAL BLOCK CONNECTION
   2-pin terminal block connector to connect the CURV500 installation amplifier LDCURV500IAMP (terminal block connector included).

NOTE: Do not use any of the two connections to relay the speaker signal, since a subwoofer already has an impedance of 3 ohms and the installa-tion amplifier could be overloaded in case of a parallel connection of two or more subwoofers.

SETTING UP THE SUBWOOFER

Unscrew the 4 screws from the M8 threaded sleeves in the corners (short or long side of housing) on the chosen installation side; screw the included rubber feet to the corners and place the subwoofer at a suitable location on a level surface.

WALL/CEILING MOUNTING

Dimensions mounting bracket

1. Screw the mounting bracket onto a solid wall or ceiling at the chosen location (for wall mounting with the support lugs upward). Please make sure to use appropriate screws and ensure a firm hold.
2. Remove the two countersunk head screws (M6) at the bottom of the subwoofer and connect the speaker cable BEFORE mounting the subwoofer to the corresponding connection. Now guide the subwoofer as shown onto the mounting bracket and slide it in the direction of the mounting angle. Make sure that the retaining tabs on the mounting bracket are correctly positioned in the support lugs of the subwoofer (see Figures A, B and C).
3. Using the supplied M6 retaining screws, screw on the mounting bracket and subwoofer; do not use the previously removed countersunk head screws for this purpose. Ensure a tight fit.

NOTE: Overhead installation should only be carried out by trained personnel.

SUSPENDED MOUNTING

Screw one ring screw into each of the 4 M8 threaded sleeves in the corners on the chosen mounting side (short or long side of housing). For this purpose, use M8 ring screws with at least 20 mm of thread length and use a 24 mm washer to enlarge the surface of the ring screw head (ring screws and washers not included). Ensure a tight fit.

Attach suitable steel ropes, or steel chains to the 4 eyelets (suitable ring screws, eye nuts etc.) to the chosen location on the ceiling in such way that they are parallel to each other (same hole spacing as the ring screws on the subwoofer). Make sure that the steel ropes, or steel chains have the same length and secure them with the appropriate connectors onto the ring screws of the subwoofer.
NOTE: Overhead installation should only be carried out by trained personnel.
