Introduction
8” Full range loudspeaker cabinet
The XENO series is a loudspeaker range specifically designed for fixed audio installations
in modern environments, offering two different sizes of contemporary and elegant
designed products. What makes them so unique is their full-range audio design, allowing
them to be used without additional an bass cabinet.
The XENO 8 is the 8” version, equipped with a 1” dome tweeter and a 8” Mid / Low
frequency driver, ensuring a high-fidelity sound. This wooden cabinet is fitted with a
slim and elegant front grill.
This makes the loudspeaker suitable for environments where the music is the key
element, but without making any compromises on its design.
This ranges from modern and trendy clubs to pubs and dance bars where that little extra
punch and depth in the music is appreciated. The sleek and elegant design guarantees
the loudspeaker to blend in with any environment.
It delivers a powerful full-range sound with an RMS rating of 120 Watt, and a maximum
of 240 Watt. The advanced integrated protection circuit avoids the tweeter from suffering
damage in case of overload. The included mounting bracket makes it possible to mount
the loudspeaker in both horizontal and vertical position, making it suitable for every
application.
The connections can be made on the rear side of the loudspeaker with a Euro Terminal
Block connector.
All Xeno series speakers are available in Black (/B) or White (/W).

Installing the XENO
Revolving mounting bracket
Every XENO speaker is standard delivered with a two-way revolving bracket, making it
possible to install the speaker at each location and focusing it into the desired direction.
By using this bracket you can install the loudspeaker both in a horizontal and vertical way.
The vertical installation method provides an additional advantage when the installation
height on the wall or ceiling is limited by focussing the loudspeaker more directly downwards.
The two-way revolving bracket is made out of extra strong zinc-alloy material which
ensures a solid and secure mounting of the loudspeaker. One horizontal and one vertical
revolving point ensure easy focusing of the loudspeaker into any direction.
To realise an optimal installation, distribution of the forces on the revolving points and
freedom in focusing of the loudspeaker, it is recommended to install the swivel points of the
loudspeaker in a way that the revolving point on the wall plate is positioned in a horizontal
direction and the revolving point on the speaker plate is positioned in a vertical direction.
The speaker plate has to be be fixed to the loudspeaker cabinet by inserting the 4
supplied mounting screws into the pre-drilled and threaded holes at the back of the
speaker cabinet.
The wall plate has to be fixed to the wall by four screws. The fasteners that are
used, depend on the mounting surface (brick, concrete, wood, ...). The holes should
be provided in a quadrangular shape with a mutual distance of 45 mm, as shown in
following drawing:

Rotatable logo
Depending on the mounting direction of the loudspeaker (either horzontally or vertically),
the logo on the front grill of the loudspeaker that is held in place by a spring loaded
mechanism can be rotated into the direction the speaker is mounted.
By placing a flat object between the logo and the recessed surface in the grill and the
logo, the logo will move forward because of the spring loaded mechanism and can be
rotated into the right position.
Connecting
For connecting the XENO loudspeaker, the wires coming
from the amplifier have to be connected to the 4-pin
Terminal Block connector at the back of the unit. The
wires coming from the amplifier have to be connected to
the ‘In +’ and ‘In -’ terminals. The other two terminals
‘Out +’ and ‘Out -’ can be used for linking the signal
coming from the amplifier to other loudspeakers,
resulting in a parallel network of multiple loudspeakers.
Mind the polarity markings when wiring the loudspeaker cables.
