Positioning the Auro D12/D15

Speaker Placement

Whenever possible, it is a good idea to 

raise the speakers above the heads of 

the listening audience. The Auro enclo-

sures feature standard 1 3/8” pole mount 

receptacles with locking bolts, which are 

compatible with speaker stands from a 

variety of manufacturers. In a smaller set-

ting (such as a school cafeteria, library, or 

a mall kiosk) you can instead use the Auro 

loudspeakers in the tilt back monitor posi-

tions, which will improve the projection of 

the speakers, and may eliminate the need 

for speaker stands.

Note: When using a speaker pole mount, be 

sure the pole is capable of supporting the 

weight of the Auro loudspeaker.

Note: Always have another person assist 

when mounting the Auro speaker onto a 

speaker stand, or when adjusting the stand 

while the speaker is mounted.

Using the Auro D12/D15 as a Floor Moni-

tor

The Auro D12/D15 is an ideal solution for 

stage monitoring. Thanks to its unique 

design, two wedge monitor positions are 

possible. When placed on its side with the 

high frequency horn facing to the left of 

the enclosure, the Auro is tilted at a 30° 

angle, optimizing performance when used 

on a large stage. When placed on its side 

with the high frequency horn facing to the 

right of the enclosure, the Auro is tilted at 

a 45° angle, optimizing performance when 

used on a smaller stage.
