Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of a Phonic ClubX loudspeaker
system. Phonic's ClubX speaker line is exquisitely engineered
for the consummate audio professional. The ClubX achieves its
incredibly transparent sound and powerfully rich bass by using
premium components including cast aluminum baskets, 1.5",
2.5", 3'' and 4'' flatwire voice coils, and 1" or 1.75'' pure titanium
membranes.
Each ClubX component was designed from scratch to ensure
that the unit performs in perfect harmony, rather than the sum of
random parts. The ClubX's topnotch components also enable it
to operate with poise at extraordinary high SPLs. ClubX power
ratings are certified using IEC 268-5 rating system so users can
operate at high power levels without speaker failure. The ClubX's
twelve M8 suspension points, dual-angle pole mounts, rotatable
90°x60° horn, and ergonomically placed handles give the series
versatility for installation and portability.
This user's manual was designed to give you enough information
to setup and install the ClubX speakers wherever you may need.
Phonic advises that before you use the Phonic ClubX speaker
that you read the information provided in this manual, then store
the manual in an easy to remember place for future reference.

Operation & Mounting
Standalone
If you simply wish to use the loudspeaker on its own and not utilize
the M8 fly points, you can simply set the speaker on an appropriate
flat surface. The ClubX 2-way models have two possible operating
modes when running standalone speakers. The speakers can be
sat upright, where the four rubber feet sit firmly on the ground (to
prevent skidding when the speaker runs at high output levels).
2-way models also have a 45 degree slant on one side that allows
the unit to be tipped on its side and face up towards a performer.
This is called "floor monitor" mode.
Pole Mounting
The Phonic ClubX 8, ClubX 10, ClubX 12 and ClubX 15 all feature
two sockets for pole mounting. The first allows for straight, direct
coverage by simply placing the speaker on top of a 35mm speaker
stand. The second pole mount socket offers an 8 degree angle that
will position the speaker at a slight downward angle. By using this
mounting point and slightly raising the speaker stand will increase
the overall coverage by the ClubX speaker. The ClubX 18SB also
offers a pole mounting slot on top. This socket can be used to insert
a mounting pole that can carry one of the previously mentioned
2-way speakers right on top of it.
