Using the CVXL-112 as a floor/stage monitor 

 
The CVXL-112 can be used as a floor monitor by orienting it as shown below.  This places it at a fixed 45-degree angle 
toward  the  performers.    It  is  recommended  to  use  MONITOR  mode  for  this  application,  as  it  reduces  the  volume  of 
frequencies that are prone to feedback.  Be sure that the loudspeaker and cables are not located where they can become 
a tripping hazard.  It is recommended to use right-angle XLR or right-angle ¼” jacks where possible to avoid cable binding 
between the loudspeaker and the stage.
