Connection

The connection cable between the amplifier outputs and the loudspeakers should be of good quality, sufficient gauge, and as short as possible. This is especially important for long distances and low loads (4-8Ω): up to 10m, a gauge of at least 2.5 mm² is recommended, and for longer distances, 4 or 6 mm².

A simple way to determine the required gauge, assuming approximately 4% loss, is using the following formula:

Section (mm²) = Length (m) / Impedance (Ω)

Always respect polarity. All models include a Euroblock connector, and some models also include a second Euroblock or Speakon® connector, facilitating parallel connection of acoustic cabinets.

6.1 ARQISSB6Ti

The ARQISSB6Ti supports both high and low impedance operation. It features a 3-position switch on the rear panel to select its operating mode.

The 8Ω/120W position corresponds to low impedance operation at a maximum power of 120W. The two power selector positions for 70/100V lines allow configuring the maximum power each unit will operate at (60/120W @ 100V | 30/60W @ 70W).

Note: When using the loudspeaker in 70V installations, the power ratings for the 100V position will be halved. When adopting this configuration, consider the amplifier's limitations when connecting multiple loudspeakers to its output, especially if the total impedance drops below 4Ω. It is also important that the connection cable between the amplifier outputs and the loudspeakers is of good quality and as short as possible, particularly for long distances and low loudspeaker impedance.

ATTENTION! If the system is accidentally connected with the switch in the 100V/60W position to a low impedance amplifier, it will not damage the loudspeaker, but its performance will be significantly reduced. If the loudspeaker is accidentally connected to a 70/100V line in the 8Ω position, it will be severely damaged.

• ARQIS105i: 140W RMS
• ARQIS106i: 240W RMS
• ARQIS108i: 300W RMS
• ARQIS205i: 280W RMS
• ARQIS208i: 600W RMS
• ARQIS110i: 600W RMS
• ARQIS112i: 1000W RMS
• ARQISSB6Ti: 240WRMS @ 8Ω
• ARQISSB10i: 300W RMS
• ARQISSB12i: 600W RMS
• ARQISSB15i: 1200W RMS

Location

General guidelines are as follows:

Place the acoustic cabinets on solid and firm surfaces. Bass reinforcement units (subwoofers) placed directly on the floor and horizontally will perform better than when hung, elevated, or placed vertically on the floor. There should be no obstacles between the acoustic enclosures and the audience. Unlike bass frequencies, treble frequencies are highly directional, and any obstacle will cause attenuation in their response. For large audiences, better sound propagation at a distance will be achieved by elevating the cabinets.

Installation

For the ARQISi series, the optimal installation method has been studied for each model. The ARQIS106i, ARQIS108i, ARQIS205i, ARQIS208i, ARQIS110i, and ARQIS112i models can be installed horizontally or vertically thanks to the included accessories and the rotatable 1" compression driver.

Note: The compression driver is factory-installed with the same orientation as the speaker grille logo (horizontal or vertical).

Each model in the ARQISi range is supplied with the optimal installation system. ARQIS205i / ARQIS208i / ARQIS110i / ARQIS112i / ARQISSB10i / ARQISSB12i / ARQISSB15i also feature integrated nuts that accept standard M8 metric screws for suspended installation using steel cables, compatible with a structure or truss.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Never suspend the equipment using its transport handles (if equipped); use the appropriate accessories for each task. When using wall or ceiling anchors, a redundant fixing system is mandatory as a safety measure. Use steel cable, slings, or chains of adequate section to prevent the acoustic cabinet from falling if any element of the main hanging system becomes detached.
