SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

VEGAS 4 is a miniature, externally powered loudspeaker ideal for high-quality distributed sound systems and short-throw applications.
The loudspeaker features a single 4”-inch ferrite magnet woofer mounted in a sealed box, providing a full range frequency response from a single diaphragm which delivers the best phase coherence, optimal vocal presence, intelligibility and clarity.
Only high-quality Italian-made components are used in this low distortion loudspeaker.
The cabinet is coated with a high-tech black textured polyurea scratch-free finish and the grill has an epoxy powder coating. Custom RAL color repainting options are available for installations with specific cosmetic requirements.
The ultra-compact, high tensile strength, lightweight enclosure is equipped with two NL4 speakON connectors, with selectable input pins via a switch on the rear panel, and a 4-pin Euroblock connector. Both connectors offer production quality pass-thru for multiple loudspeakers in parallel.

AMPLIFIER CONNECTION

Vegas 4 is using one driver. The unit requires just one amplification channel. The connections are available on:

• two NL4 connectors, with a switch to select which speakON poles to use (1+/1- or 2+/2-) in order to simplify the connection between various elements through the same cable.
  For example, multiple loudspeakers can be wired on a 4-pole cable and then divide the load into two amplification channels just by acting on the switch;

•  a 4-pin Euroblock socket, that is independent of the switch and therefore always works with the same poles.
  Both connectors are in parallel to facilitate wiring on portable and installed systems. The system shall be used with the suggested Outlineamplifier and presets DSP.

RIGGING INSTRUCTIONS

This system offers two M6 threaded inserts, one on each side, which allow to properly use rigging bracket to hang the speaker.

Always place the washers between the cabinet and the bracket, as shown in the figure.
There is another M4 threaded insert on the center of the rear panel to use weatherproof cable protection or safety cable attachments. Please note that for this insert screws longer than 25 mm cannot be used and it must always be covered, when it is not used, to protect the loudspeaker from dust or anything else.

The bracket has rails in correspondence with two inserts to perfectly fit the cabinet in any case and an M10 threaded insert for stand mounting.

ACCESSORIES

A weatherproof cable protection plate (WPCON-04
– optional) is available to ensure the normal operation also in extreme conditions (IP55).
Attach the neoprene gasket following the outline of the cap.
Beware to start and finish on the bottom edge.

Pass the wires through the cable glands before installing the accessory, then fix the plate and secure the screw (no longer than 25 mm) into the threaded insert in the center of the rear panel as shown in the picture.

PHYSICAL

APPENDIX – PERIODIC CONTROLS

All the loudspeakers, before the shipment, are fully tested at the end of the production line, but before the system is installed an overall check shall be performed to ensure that the system has not been damaged during the shipment. Periodic controls shall be performed at regular time intervals. The following table represents an ideal check.

Outline carries out ongoing research for product improvement. New materials, manufacturing methods, and design upgrades are introduced to existing products without prior notice as a routine result of this philosophy.
For this reason, any current Outline product may differ in some aspect from its description, but will always equal or exceed the original design specifications unless otherwise stated.
