IC2-FR Assembly (Fixed Installation)

IC Squared array modules and their matching subwoofers are often floor stacked using the subwoofers as a

mounting base for the array modules.

Typical floor stacks include two or three array modules plus one or two matching subwoofers. Floor stacks can

be built without the subwoofers, but the stack isn’t as stable as one built with one or two subwoofers as the

base.

To assemble an IC2-FR floor stack:

1. Remove the loudspeaker (subwoofer or array module) that will be used as the base and its associated

hardware (M10 bolts, joining biscuits and wrench) from their shipping carton. Place the loudspeaker in position.

2. Install the four joining biscuits in the metal channels on the ends of the cabinet using the M10 bolts with the

Nylon thread lock included in the hardware package and tighten with the tool provided. The circular hole on the

end of the biscuit marked “1” is the correct hole to use.

2. Remove another array module and its associated hardware from their carton. Place the array module in

position on top of the first cabinet making sure the steel channels on both ends of the cabinet are aligned with

the joining biscuits on the lower cabinet.

3. Insert and tighten the M10 bolts with the Nylon thread lock using the tool provided

4 Repeat the procedure until all of the array modules are securely fastened together. Note that if a second

subwoofer had been included to form the base, the two subwoofers would have been joined together in the

same fashion

Flying Arrays

The procedure for assembling flying IC2-FR arrays is similar to the one used to assemble ground stacks,

except that the order is reversed. Ground stacks are assembled from the bottom up while flown arrays are

usually assembled from the top down using the RHANG-IC2 Flybar assembly to fly the first array module or

subwoofer.

To assemble an IC2-FR flying array using the RHANG-IC2 Flybar

1. Insert the flybar’s 2 heavy attachment arms into the metal channels on the top module and secure them in

place using the M10 bolts with the Nylon thread lock and the tool provided in the hardware package.

2. Attach the lifting device (chain hoist, fork lift, etc) you will use to raise the array to the flybar. One commonly

used arrangement is shackles and a sling.

3. Raise the array high enough to let you roll or slide the next array module into position beneath it. Insert the

joining biscuits into the module being added and insert and tighten the M10 bolts with the Nylon thread lock

4. Lower the array array assembly into position on the array module being added and secure it into position by

inserting the and tightening the M10 bolts with the Nylon thread lock

5. Repeat the procedure until the array is complete. Then check to make sure all the M10 bolts are tight.
