When installing Meyer Sound loudspeakers, always observe the following precautions:

  • Use all Meyer Sound products in accordance with local, state, federal, and industry regulations. Owners and users must evaluate the reliability of any rigging or mounting method for their application. Rigging loudspeakers requires trained and experienced professionals.

  • Use mounting and rigging hardware rated to meet or exceed the suspended weight.

  • Make sure to attach mounting hardware to the building's structural components (studs or joists), and not just to the wall surface. Verify that the building's structure and the anchors used for the installation will safely support the total weight of the mounted loudspeakers.

  • Use mounting hardware appropriate for the installation surface.

  • Tighten bolts securely. Meyer Sound recommends using Loctite® on bolt threads and safety cables.

  • Inspect mounting and rigging hardware regularly. Immediately replace any worn or damaged components.

Caution

This accessory is rated for vertical loading only. Do not configure the rigging bar/splay kit assembly in a manner that imposes horizontal loads on the accessory fasteners. Horizontal loading may damage the loudspeaker mounting points, the accessory, or both.

The MSK-T1 Splay Kit provides splay between two MRB-T1 Rigging Bars. The rear link is the rotation point.

30_260805_MSK_Splay_25-40.png

The front link mounting location determines the splay angle between the rigging bars.

Assembly instructions
meyer-blue-rule-line.png

Fasten the MRB-T1 Rigging Bars to loudspeakers per their assembly instructions. For all link kit configurations, secure the rigging bars to the loudspeakers in the forward position to align the front and rear splay link mounting points correctly.

40_260601_MRB-T1_x2_Forward.png

Align the upper two mounting holes of the rear link with the two holes at the end of the upper rigging bar. Secure the rear link to the rigging bar with two mini-wing screws and shoulder nuts. Orient the screws opposite each other to provide more hand space to tighten them.

110_260530_Rear_Link_Attach.png

Secure the rear link to the lower rigging bar with a mini-wing screw and a shoulder nut.

120_260530_Rear_Link_to_MRB.png

Align the mounting holes of the front link with the holes on the rigging bar for the desired splay angle and attach with two mini-wing screws and shoulder nuts, 25° splay position illustrated below.

130_260530_Front_Link_Attach.png
Configurations
meyer-blue-rule-line.png

Deploy the splay kit between two or three ULTRA-X80 series loudspeakers. The two-loudspeaker configurations below exceed 5:1 safety limits when suspended from the MRB-T1. For three-loudspeaker configurations, contact Technical Support to verify safety limits and component capacities: meyersound.com/contact.

Suspend the rigging bar from two locations to facilitate horizontal array aiming. Always suspend the array with the MRB-T1 Rigging Bar. Meyer Sound has not evaluated or qualified any other method or hardware.

140_260602_MRB_shackles.png

For arrays of two ULTRA-X80 loudspeakers, the tables below list the result tilt of the top and bottom loudspeakers when the rigging bar is suspended from a single point. The MRB-T1 row lists the suspension positions (1-13). The 1st and 2nd angle rows list the result up (+) or down (-) tilt of the loudspeakers.
