Introduction

Universal wall speaker

The WXMK2/O are powerful 2-way performance speakers, which are especially

designed for outdoor use, ensuring true-to-nature, high fidelity reproduction of music

and speech in every environement, ranging from modern residential applications to the

most demanding outdoor applications in parks, stadiums, hotels and even clubs.

It features a stunningly designed and elegant looking ABS housing which is fitted with

high quality components. The speaker is available in three sizes, 3”, 5 1/4” and 8”, and

can be used in standard ow impedance systems as well as 100V PA installations. A

special treatment with powder coating provides the necessary protection for all weather

conditions. Because of this, the powder coated aluminum bracket and grill can pass

the 720 hours salt-spray test. A drain hole behind the aluminum grill allows water to

flow out and the rotatable 5 pole waterproof connector with power tap selection makes

sure that the speaker meets the IP55 standard. The included mounting bracket allows

horizontal and vertical mounting as well as focusing of the speaker, and an integrated

advanced protection network protects the tweeter against overload.

Installing the WX802MK2/O

Step 1: Mount the loudspeaker

The loudspeaker can be mounted both horizontally and vertically by means of the sup-

plied mounting bracket. For mounting the loudspeaker on the desired mounting location,

the mounting bracket should be removed from the loudspeaker. This can be done by

loosening the thumbscrews on either side of the loudspeaker. After this is done, the

mounting holes should be indicated.

For a stable mounting of the loudspeaker it should always be fastened by two screws.

The position of the mounting holes depends on the mounting orientation, horizontally

or vertically. After this, the bracket can be mounted on the desired location. Always use

the proper fasteners depending of the mounting surface. Once the bracket is mounted

on the desired location, the loudspeaker can be fixed to the bracket.

ATTENTION

To make sure that no rain or other liquids can enter the loudspeaker when mounted

outside, a special construction is provided at the inner side of the bass port. This

construction is only functional when the loudspeaker is mounted in the correct position.

The loudspeaker must be mounted according to the woofer orientation as shown below.

When mounting upright, the tweeter shall be on top of the woofer, when mounted

sideways the tweeter shall be on the right side of the woofer.

Step 2: Power settings

The power tap of the WXMK2/O speakers can be selected depending on the orienta-

tion of the waterproof connector on the rear side of the loudspeaker. A white dot is

displayed on the cable part of the connector. Depending on the direction of the white

dot, the desired power tap is connected. The corresponding power taps are shown

on the sticker on the rear side of the loudspeaker. The power / impedance of the

loudspeaker can be set in 3 adjustable steps of impedance for 100V and 1 step for

standard low impedance applications.
