Cerwin-Vega! CVP-2153 & CVP-1152 Loudspeaker Systems 3. BEFORE YOU BEGIN: SAFETY AND CARE FOR YOUR CVP LOUDSPEAKERS Positioning High and upper mid frequencies are a crucial part of the audio spectrum, and have much to do with how we perceive clarity and intelligibility. Whereas these frequencies are the most easily located, they are also the first to be acoustically blocked. Taking the coverage angles of the models used into consideration, be sure to set up your speakers so that the MF and HF dr

Cerwin-Vega! CVP-2153 & CVP-1152 Loudspeaker Systems Cable Selection The quality and characteristics of the speaker cables used also greatly effect speaker performance. Always use high-quality cables made with professional-grade wire and connectors that are correctly and carefully fitted. Selection of the appropriate wire gauge is especially important to system operation. A cable that is too light or low-gauge will result in amplifier power being wasted due to the series resistance of the cable

Cerwin-Vega! CVP-2153 & CVP-1152 Loudspeaker Systems Powering Up To avoid damage to your speaker and other parts of your system, when you turn On your system, always turn On the power amp last! This will avoid loud, damaging pops that will annoy your audience, and blow your speakers. When you power down, the amplifier should always be turned Off first to avoid the same problems. Polarity When using two or more speaker systems, be sure to match the polarity (+/-) of the speaker system connectors

Reinstall the grill with all twelve screws. To change the system back to Full Range mode see steps 1-5 above, but move the wire harness from “BI AMP” to “FULL RANGE” on the input circuit board and the crossover circuit board. Please check (Figure 2, Bi Amp Mode), displayed on the next page. 7

CONNECTING AND DAISY CHAINING SPEAKERS The inputs of the connectors are paralleled to the “through” connectors in both Full Range and Bi Amp modes so that either connector will work. The other connector can then be used to send the signal to another speaker. Refer to the following diagrams for the proper impedance values (stated in Ohms) when daisy chaining speakers.

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 degre

Cerwin-Vega! Sistemas de altavoces CVP-2153 y CVP-1152 El uso de un filtro de paso alto en la trayectoria de la señal se recomienda especialmente cuando se usan bandejas tocadiscos y/o equipos de CD como fuentes de la señal. Los reproductores de CD generan a menudo frecuencias extremadamente bajas, lo cual puede causar un desplazamiento excesivo del diafragma. El uso de un limitador para limitar el nivel de salida, insertando el limitador entre la salida de la consola de mezclado y el amplificad
