LEA DETENIDAMENTE LAS SIGUIENTES INSTRUCCIONES DE INSTALACÍON DEL PRODUCTO. Los terminales positivo y negativo de entrada están ubicados uno en cada extremo de la carcasa. Este montaje separado previene de posibles cortocircuitos de la señal a altos niveles de volumen.
Para un buen funcionamiento las paredes del recinto han de ser rigidas y sin flexión a altas presiones de aire. Recomendamos usar un espesor de 1.9 cm de conglomerado de alta densidad o fibra de media densidad. Si el recinto es muy grande es necessario reforzarlo internamente.
VEUILLEZ LIRE LES INSTRUCTIONS SUIVANTES POUR L'INSTALLATION DE CE PRODUIT. Les bornes positives et négatives sont fixées de part et d'autre du saladier. Cette séparation permet d'empêcher les courts-circuits entre les fils lors des reproductions sonores élevées.
Pour fonctionner convenablement les parois du caisson doivent être rigides lorsqu'elles sont soumises aux hautes pressions dues au fonctionnement du haut-parleur. Nous vous recommandons d'utiliser des panneaux de bois aggloméré à haute ou moyenne densité de particules de type “MDF”.

D EUTSCH Um das Gehäuse so präzise wie möglich zu bauen, sollten die Gehäusewände sehr steif und luftundurchlässig sein, um dem entsehenden Luftdruck des Lautsprechers standhalten zu können. Wir empfehlen 1,9 cm mittelverdichtete Faserplatte (MDF), die in den meisten Baumärkten angeboten wird.
LEGGERE CON ATTENZIONE LE SEGUENTI ISTRUZIONI PRIMA DELL'INSTALLAZIONE DEL PRODOTTO. I connettori di ingresso positivi e negativi sono montati sul cestello in posizioni speculari. Il montaggio separato impedisce al segnale musicale di cortocircuitarsi ad altissimi livelli di volume.
Per ottenere le prestazioni massime, le pareti della cassa devono essere rigide e non flettere sotto la sollecitaxione della elevata pressione generata dal woofer. Noi raccomandiamo l'impiego di MDF con uno spessore minimo di 19 mm, materiale facilmente reperibile in tutte le falegnamerle.
