2. CONNECTIONS
2.1. Connection description
A) SPEAKON: All models use two NL4MPR Speakon terminals and are duly
prepared for a perfect connection in a parallel system. Terminal Pins +1/-1 must be
always used, disregarding the +2/-2 which are not internally connected. Respect
always the polarity +/-.

Fig. 1. NITID (passive) connectors
It is strongly recommended to use a two-conductor high quality wire, non-
shielded and two-coloured. We recommend using a minimum section of 4
mm2for each conductor. Avoid long wire distances as they induce to
important power and quality losses.
2.2. Configurations
2.2.1. Full-range stereo configuration
Connect each output of the amplifier
LEFT/RIGHT to each cabinet using two
independent wires.
Fig. 2. Full-range stereo configuration
2.2.2. Full-Range parallel stereo configuration
Connect the amplifier's output to the Speakon’s input of the first cabinet, always
respecting the polarity positive +1, negative -1. Then, make a bridge from the first
cabinet to the second one.

2.2.3. Passive configuration with
subwoofer
There will be times when you will be
interested in reinforcing your NITID Systems
with subwoofer units, in passive mode. In
this case only one amplifier will be used for
the whole system.
Connect one of the outputs of the amplifier
to the subwoofer through a wire. Then,
make a bridge from the link Speakon
connector of the subwoofer to its respective
mid-high top unit, always respecting the
correct polarity between both systems. Do
the same with the other channel.
It is also correct, if the installation requires
so, to make the connection in the opposite
way, that is, from the amplifier to the top
cabinet and then to the subwoofer.

2.2.4. Bi-Amplified configuration with
Subwoofer
A wire with the maximum available section
(4mm2minimum) should link the low
frequencies output channel of the amplifier
to one of the subwoofers. Two subwoofers
can be also connected by bridge one to
another, as long as the polarity is strictly
respected.
Connect the other output of the amplifier
to the Full-Range cabinets.
It is also possible to use only one amplifier
for the low reinforcement, connecting each
one of the subwoofers to the two outputs
of the amplifier and consequently,
connecting the Full Range cabinets to a
second amplifier.

In order to allow a bridge connection between cabinets, each one of them
has been provided with two Speakon connectors that allow the Input /
Output function indistinctly. Terminal Pins +1/-1 must be always used,
disregarding the +2/-2 which are not internally connected.
3. MOUNTING AND PLACEMENT
For a proper installation of the acoustic cabinet systems, it is strongly recommended
to carefully read the following advices.
3.1. Placement
When possible, cabinets should be located in a high position, slightly inclined to the
audience. If the loudspeakers are located too low, the listeners at the end of the
room will not hear a good sound quality.
Fig. 7. Flying placement
3.2. Use with subwoofer or tripod
All models are equipped with a 35 mm socket for
mounting the speaker on a subwoofer or tripod.
Be careful not to use this system on non-flat
surfaces as it may become unstable.

3.3. Asymmetrical and rotatable horns
The N12P incorporates an asymmetrical dispersion horn which will optimise
coverage.
To rotate the horn, unscrew the frontal grille, and then, unscrew the four fixing
screws of the horn. Rotate it 180 degrees taking care of the wires. Screw the horn
again and finally place the frontal grille in its right position.
Good coverage of audiences often is a conflicting combination of:
wide coverage for the closest audience (short throw)
narrow coverage for distant areas (long throw)
The asymmetrical dispersion horn coverage varies from "short throw" to "long throw"
along the vertical axis (keeping a constant vertical directivity). In conclusion,
directivity feature of (50º to 100º(H), 55º(V)) can be seen as if the horn itself had
"two" horizontal directivities, which depend on the distance. For short distances the
horn should be used with its "wide" dispersion (100º). For long distances the horn
should be used with its "narrow" dispersion (50º). We suggest you to pay attention
to the following examples.
3.3.1. Vertical-Positioned Cabinets (Flown and aiming to the audience)
We need wide coverage (100º) for the closest listeners and narrow coverage for the
distant audience.

distant audience.
Fig. 10. Horizontal position The horns have the "Nearfield" mark
printed on the 100º horizontal
coverage side.
3.3.3. Stage monitor use
Case 1
We need wider coverage (100º) when musicians are closer to the cabinet than when
they move away from it (50º).

allows for use as onstage monitor without
the need of incorporating any other
accessory.
