Features

One switch for any line
Above the wiring connector, a rotary switch chooses between low impedance and 70/100 V distributed lines. It leaves the factory on low impedance. The 60 W line transformer is built in, and the connector has pins for additional loudspeakers on the line.
Ready for outdoor installation
For outdoor jobs, a cable entry cover is included with the product. Being a true point source, it performs the same mounted horizontally or vertically. A yoke bracket ships with it, and the packed quantity is 2.
