Chapter 2: Setups

This chapter shows how to set up and power your GSR

speakers, and provides audio connection diagrams of a few

typical setups.

Speaker Positioning

GSR10 and GSR12

GSR speakers can be positioned standing upright, as a floor

wedge monitor, flown, or mounted on a standard speaker

stand (not included).

Standing

When positioned on the floor standing up straight, the speak-

ers can be stacked (never stack more than two GSR speakers).

When stacking a speaker, make sure its feet align properly on

the top of the lower speaker using the interlock feature on the

tops of the GSR10 and GSR12 cabinets.

Floor Wedge

The GSR10 and GSR12 also have 45° angled sides that let you

lean it back on itself, like a typical “floor wedge” monitor.

Flown

For suspension mounting or “flying” your GSR10 and GSR12,

there are five (5) M10 flypoints located on the top, bottom,

and back of the cabinet. Simply thread in a corresponding

M10 eye-bolt, and you’re ready for “flying” your GSR

full-range cabinets.

To access the M10 flypoints:

 On the top, bottom, and rear of the cabinet, remove the

threaded caps that cover the M10 inserts.

Mounted

Each GSR10 and GSR12 features a 36mm pole mount recepta-

cle on the bottom, enabling you to mount the speaker on any

standard 1 3/8-inch speaker stand. After mounting a speaker

on any pole or stand, be sure to hand-tighten the rear stabiliz-

ing screw on the back of the cabinet. This ensures the cabinet

does not move or turn during performance.

The GSR18 subwoofer has a 1 3/8-inch pole mount on its top,

letting you use a standard speaker pole to mount a GSR10 or

GSR12 directly on top of a GSR18.
