[. . . ] When placed on a smooth surface such as polished wood or linoleum, the speakers may move due to acoustical energy output. Precautions should be taken to assure that the speaker does not fall off the stage or table on which it is placed. Optional accessory items are available from JBL Professional and after-market suppliers to facilitate suspension and wall /ceiling mounting of EON speakers. When using these items, review all enclosed documentation and carefully follow all instructions and safety precautions. CAUTION: Suspension of EON speakers should be done by qualified persons following safe rigging standards and practices. Unsafe mounting or overhead suspension of any heavy load can result in serious injury and equipment damage. CAUTION: When suspending this product carefully follow JBL instructions and local ordinances. Do not attempt to use unless you have read and understood all instructions including the JBL User's Guide. Attachment of the loudspeaker to a supporting structure should be referred to a qualified professional. Stand Mounting Safety Precautions EON series full range models include a 36 mm receptacle cup to allow mounting on tripod stands or on a pole over subwoofers. When using stands or poles, be sure to observe the following precautions: · EON speakers include a thumb-screw that must be tightened to secure the speaker to the tripod stand. Before mounting the speaker on the stand, be sure to loosen the screw so that it doesn't prevent the pole from fully penetrating the socket. Power "on" is indicated by the illumination of the logo on the front of the enclosure and the power "on" LED. · First, switch on the power to the mixer, audio sources, or musical instruments that are feeding your EON. SET VOLUME · If you are using an audio mixing console, refer to the manufacturer's instructions to properly set gain structure. · Turn up your sources to the level that will be used in performance and talk, sing or play into the system. · Bring the INPUT 3 control up (clockwise) until the desired volume has been reached. If you are using a microphone, turn the INPUT 3 control up slowly to avoid feedback. · If you are using the INPUT 1 and INPUT 2 inputs, bring the INPUT 1 and INPUT 2 controls up until the desired volume has been reached. CHECK THE LIMIT LED The LIMIT indicator flashes when the loudspeaker's on-board amplifiers are approaching maximum output. However, if the LIMIT LED stays illuminated, the sound may be distorted and it is an indication that more speakers or a lower performance volume may be required for your specific application. 9 Section 4: About the CS1014T CS1014T represents the natural evolution of a product whose creators have advanced the state of the art in professional audio for more than 60 years. With almost 1 million EON speakers in the world, more than any other powered loudspeaker, EON embodies "the survival of the fittest". The CS1014T was engineered for durability, high performance and ease of use. [. . . ] · Re-route audio cables away from AC power and lighting cables. · Use the balanced outputs (if available) of your mixer or source equipment to drive your EON speakers. · Use a "DI" (direct injection) box to convert your unbalanced equipment output to a balanced output. Reduce the INPUT level controls and increase the output level of your source devices. [. . . ]
