Cerwin-Vega! CVP-2153 & CVP-1152 Loudspeaker Systems
6. HIGH FREQUENCY FAST REACTION PROTECTION CIRCUIT
Your CVP speakers offer a fast reacting suppression limiter that senses input voltage and reduces potentially
damaging voltage levels that would otherwise reach your high frequency drivers.
7. ROTATABLE HORN
The high frequency horn in the CVP series is installed in a 60 degree horizontal and a 40 degree vertical
orientation. The horn can be rotated to provide 40 degrees vertically and 60 degrees horizontally for an
alternative high frequency dispersion pattern which is useful in certain install situations or when using the
CVP-1152 as a floor monitor.
Remove the screws, then rotate the horn 45 degrees, and replace the screws being careful not to apply too much
torque pressure.
8. USING THE CVP-1152 AS A FLOOR MONITOR
The CVP-1152 can be used as a floor monitor. Typically, you will want more high frequency coverage from left to
right across your stage or performance area. Follow the instructions earlier in this document to rotate the horn.
Note that you can even rotate the grill to orient the Cerwin-Vega! logo in the correct position! How cool is that?
To rotate the grill, first remove the grill screws. Pull the grill out and turn it 90 degrees. Replace the screws being
careful with the torque pressure applied.
9. WARNING ABOUT SUSPENDING LOUDSPEAKERS
The CVP Series uses forged M10 eye bolts.
Only use eye bolts that are professionally certified for the proper 10x load requirements.
Suspending loudspeakers is serious business! Injury or death can occur if loudspeaker systems are not
suspended correctly! Read and follow these instructions carefully!
Speaker suspension must take place in accordance with instructions provided by Cerwin-Vega! and under the
supervision of a licensed, professional sound/rigging engineer or structural engineer. Only use attachments,
mounts, accessories, or brackets specified by Cerwin-Vega! or only specified products rated for overhead
suspension. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way.
WARNING! Before placing, installing, rigging, or suspending any speaker product, inspect all hardware, suspension, cabinets,
transducers, brackets and associated equipment for damage. Any missing, corroded, deformed or non-load rated component
could significantly reduce the strength of the suspension, placement, or array. Any such condition severely reduces the safety
of the suspension and should be immediately corrected. Use only hardware which is rated for the loading conditions of the
suspension and any possible short-term unexpected overloading. Never exceed the rating of the hardware or equipment.
Consult a licensed, professional engineer when any doubt or questions arise regarding a physical equipment installation.
Cerwin-Vega! is not responsible for damage or liability for improperly installed or maintained mounting and/or rigging systems.
