Ground Stacking
Safety Warning: Only authorised
personnel shall design and rig the ground
stacked configuration, following the instructions and
procedures in the manual supplied with the fly grid
or downloaded from turbosound.com. Failure to
follow these instructions may lead to death or
permanent injury.
Example: an MV212 groundstack. The MAN-FG fly
grid comes with an adaptor that attaches to the
rear mounting point on MV212 speakers for ground
stacking. The MV212 speakers can be attached to
each other with 2 front mounting points and one rear
point. The rear mounting plate adjusts the angle of
the speakers in the groundstack.
Example: a hybrid MS215/MV212 groundstack.
The MAN-FG fly grid may be connected to the top
of an MS215 subwoofer, and then MV212 speakers
connected to the top of the fly grid.
