IMPORTANT REMARK
WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD – DO NOT OPEN
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is
intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage”
within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
WARNING (If applicable): The terminals marked with symbol of ” ” may be
of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock. The external
wiring connected to the terminals requires installation by an instructed
person or the use of ready-made leads or cords.
WARNING: To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this equipment to
rain or moisture.
WARNING: An apparatus with Class I construction shall be connected to a
mains socket-outlet with a protective earthing connection.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

INTRODUCTION
TRAILSB6T is intended as a bass reinforcement and is constructed of wood, with
a very compact design. It incorporates a 6.5-inch, 60 Wrms, 8 Ω driver, a
transformer with four selectable powers for use in 70/100 V lines and an
internal low-pass filter.
It has been specially designed to meet the requirements of a permanent
installation, in which low visual impact and integration with its surroundings
are essential: concealed in suspended ceilings and on surfaces, etc.
Installation accessories are included. Available in black
MAIN SPECIFICATIONS
- Small-format, sub-bass woofer enclosure made of wood, for strengthening TRAIL 103 type or other loudspeaker in ceilings or other small-format boxes
- Externally-selectable low-pass filter: 150 Hz / OFF
- Suitable for 70/100 V and low-impedance lines
- Power selector 60/30/15/7.5 W and 8 Ohms
- Euroblock input connector
- Can be installed in suspended ceilings, partition walls or on walls, etc.
- Support for suspended ceilings and grille included
- Installation system included
- Available in black
CONNECTION
The TRAILSB6T operates into high or low impedance. For this reason, it has a
rear panel fitted with a 5-position switch for operating-mode selection. The
first four positions enable the system to operate into high impedance mode,
and the fifth is for low impedance.
The four positions of the power selector for the 70/100 V line allow the
maximumpower configuration at which each unit operates. Therefore, the lower
positions are used in areas requiring low SPL (7.5 W or 15 W) and the upper
positions are for areas requiring higher levels (30 W or 60 W).
Note: if the loudspeaker is used in 70V installations, the corresponding
powers for the 100V position will be reduced to half those indicated on the
switch. To one quarter for 50V installations.
The fifth position corresponds to low-impedance operation (8 Ω) and a maximum
power of 60 W. If this setup is adopted, consideration must be given to
amplifier limits when several loudspeakers are connected to its output,
especially if the overall impedance is below 4 Ω. Furthermore, it is important
that the cable connecting the amplifier outputs to the loudspeakers is of good
quality and as short as possible; this is of special significance when long
distances have to be covered and loudspeaker impedance is low.
Note: The loudspeaker distribution along a 70/100V line historically
arises from the technical requirement to mix loudspeakers of different
impedances and/or powers on the same amplification line or channel, but
without any need to worry about the total impedance of the full assembly.
Moreover, this solution enables long cable runs with significantly smaller
sections that those usually employed in low-impedance installations, but with
minimum power losses.
WARNING! If the system is accidentally connected with the switch in the
100 V/60 W position to a low-impedance amplifier, no damage will be caused to
the loudspeaker, but its performance will be well below its specifications. If
the loudspeaker is accidentally connected to a 70 V/100 V network, in the 8 Ω
position, it will be seriously damaged.
LOCATION AND INSTALLATION
TRAILSB6T provides various installation systems. The packaging contains all
the accessories required for the various options. Installation in suspended
ceiling, on a flat surface (wall or ceiling) and behind partition walls.
In general, the following rules will be followed:
- The unit must always be installed on firm, solid surfaces when the installation is on a flat surface (wall or ceiling).
- Suspended ceiling installation: TRAILSB6T can be installed in suspended ceilings with 60 cm wide profiles.
- For good sound reproduction, there must not be any obstacles between the loudspeaker and the audience.
- The sound-pressure levels must be adapted to the reproduction needs. Despite its reduced size, TRAILSB6T provides a much higher performance than domestic loudspeakers.
Note: the TRAILSB6T loudspeaker may be adapted in several ways to your needs by means of the supplied installation accessories. The procedures described in this manual are examples, but there are other installation options that can be executed by following the instructions in this manual; at corners, walls with angles, on the floor, concealed in furniture, etc.
6.1 Procedure for installation in a suspended ceiling
Before commencing with the securing of the metal fittings, consideration must
be given to the coupling bar because a 68 mm hole must be made in the ceiling
for its installation and that of the trim grille.
- Screw the metal fittings to the TRAILSB6T using the supplied screws. This can be executed by using several of the holes in the supports for the coupling bar installation in the desired position. See figure 1.
- Execute a 68 mm hole for the coupling bar in the suspended ceiling.
- Check that the system is stable and then carry out the necessary connections and adjustments before installing it over the suspended ceiling.
- Install the loudspeaker with the metal fittings already in place over the suspended ceiling and leave the system resting on the profiles.
- Install the coupling bar with the trim grille, passing it through the 68 mm hole. Push the bar towards the loudspeaker until the grille is flush with the suspended ceiling.

6.2 Flat surface installation procedure
- Screw the lower metal fitting to the wall at the required height. Remember that the lower part of the TRAILSB6T will rest on this angle. See figure 2.
- Check that the system is stable and then carry out the necessary connections and adjustments before installing the upper support.
- Screw the upper support to the TRAILSB6T with the supplied screws (Figure 2) and then screw it to the wall, leaving the loudspeaker resting on the lower support.
- Lastly, secure the TRAILSB6T to the lower support using the supplied screws.

6.3 Procedure for installation behind a partition wall
- Before commencing with the securing of the metal fittings, consideration must be given to the coupling pipe because a 68 mm hole must be made in the partition wall for its installation and that of the trim grille.
- Execute a 68 mm hole for the coupling pipe in the wall.
- Screw the lower metal fitting to the wall at the required height. Remember that the lower part of the TRAILSB6T will rest on this angle and that the coupling pipe has to pass through the hole. See Figure 3.
- Check that the system is stable and then carry out the necessary connections and adjustments before installing the upper support.
- Screw the upper support to the TRAILSB6T with the supplied screws (Figure 3) and then screw it to the wall, leaving the loudspeaker resting on the lower support.
- Secure the TRAILSB6T to the lower support using the supplied screws.
- Install the coupling bar and trim grille by passing it through the 68 mm hole. Push the bar towards the loudspeaker until the grille is flush with the wall.
