What me, read a manual?  
Before you begin, please make sure you read the Safety Instructions on page 2 and  
Getting Started on page 4.  
Your new TAPCO® Series 69 loudspeakers are designed to set up quickly and operate  
easily. We know it’s often seen as a sign of weakness to read a manual, along with asking  
for directions when lost, but we hope you will read the rest of the manual, at least while  
nobody is looking.  
It is important to keep your receipt in a safe place, and not a bad idea to write your  
product information here for future reference (i.e., insurance claims, tech support, return  
authorization, etc.).

Introduction  
Thank you for choosing TAPCO Series 69 sound reinforcement loudspeakers. The TAPCO  
product line hails back to the days of TAPCO Corporation, Greg Mackie’s first company.  
TAPCO revolutionized the audio industry back in 1969 with the very first 6-channel mixer  
specifically designed for keyboards and rock ‘n’ roll.  
In essence, TAPCO redefined the price/performance ratio and made high-quality  
professional audio equipment accessible to virtually anyone. Today, TAPCO is reborn  
with the same ideals and is backed by the world-class engineering and manufacturing  
horsepower of LOUD Technologies. The Series 69 were designed by the same experts  
responsible for Mackie’s best-selling SRM450 active loudspeakers and tweaked by the  
expert loudspeaker engineers at EAW.  
The TAPCO Series 69 loudspeakers feature precision low-frequency woofers and 1-inch  
high-output compression drivers (except for the subwoofer) with built-in protection circuitry.  
These versatile loudspeakers can be used in a variety of applications, including live  
sound reinforcement and music playback.  
Here’s a quick look at the TAPCO Series 69 features:

Getting Started  
The following steps will  
help you set up your  
loudspeakers quickly.  
1. Make all initial connections with the power  
switches OFF on all equipment. Make sure the  
master volume, level, or gain controls are all the  
way down.  
4. If you are using the 6918s subwoofer with one of  
the full-range loudspeakers, connect the 1/4" OUT  
or the Speakon LINK EXTENSION to the subwoofer’s  
input.  
ꢀ. Connect the line-level outputs from your mixing  
console (or other signal source) to the inputs of  
your power amplifier.  
5. Turn on your mixing console (or other signal  
source).  
6. Turn on the amplifier. Turn up its volume or gain  
3. Connect the “Speaker Output” from your  
power amplifier (or powered mixer) to the INPUT  
connector on the Series 69 (1/4" or Speakon jack).

Placement  
•
Highly reverberant rooms, like many gymnasiums  
and auditoriums, are a nightmare for sound system  
intelligibility. Multiple reflections off the hard walls,  
ceiling, and floor play havoc with the sound.  
Depending on the situation, you may be able to  
take some steps to minimize the reflections, such as  
putting carpeting on the floors, closing draperies to  
cover large glass windows, or hanging tapestries or  
other materials on the walls to absorb some of the  
sound.  
Your new Series 69 loudspeakers are  
designed to sit on the floor or a tabletop. In  
addition, the 6912 and 6915 are designed to  
be pole-mounted or fit on a standard tripod  
speaker stand. The 6925 and 6918s ARE NOT  
designed to be pole-mounted.  
Warning: The Series 69  
enclosures have no rigging  
points and are not suitable  
for rigging. NEVER attempt to  
suspend any of the Series 69  
However, in most cases, these remedies are not  
possible or practical. So what do you do? Making  
the sound system louder generally doesn’t work  
because the reflections become louder, too.  
The best approach is to provide as much direct  
sound coverage to the audience as possible. The  
farther away you are from the speaker, the more  
prominent will be the reflected sound.  
enclosures by its handles.  
As with any loudspeakers, protect them  
from moisture. If you are setting them up  
outdoors, make sure they are under cover if  
you expect rain.  
Room Acoustics  
Use more speakers strategically placed so they are  
closer to the back of the audience. If the distance  
between the front and back speakers is more than  
about 100 feet, you should use a delay processor  
to time-align the sound. (Since sound travels about  
one foot per millisecond, it takes about 1/10 of a  
second to travel 100 feet).  
The Series 69 loudspeakers are designed  
to sound as neutral as possible. However,  
room acoustics play a crucial role in the  
overall performance of a sound system.  
Here are some placement tips to get  
the best performance from the Series 69  
loudspeakers:  
ADDITIONAL TIDBITS OF WIDSDOM:  
•
Avoid placing loudspeakers in the corners of a  
room. This increases the low-frequency output and  
can cause the sound to be muddy and indistinct.  
•
Never listen to loud music for prolonged periods.  
Please see the Safety Instructions on page 2 for  
information on hearing protection.  
•
Avoid placing loudspeakers against a wall. This,  
too, increases the low-frequency output, though  
not as much as corner placement. However, if you  
do need to reinforce the low frequencies, this is a  
good way to do it.  
•
When you shut down your equipment, turn off the  
amplifiers first to prevent thumps and other noises  
generated by any upstream equipment from  
coming out the speakers. When powering up, turn  
on the amplifiers last.  
•
•
Avoid placing the speakers directly on a hollow  
stage floor. A hollow stage can resonate at  
certain frequencies, causing peaks and dips in  
the frequency response of the room. It’s better to  
place the loudspeakers on a sturdy table or tripod  
stands.  
•
Save the shipping boxes and packing materials!  
You may need them someday. Besides, your cat  
will love playing in them and jumping out at you  
unexpectedly. Remember to pretend like you are  
surprised!  
Position the loudspeakers so the high-frequency  
drivers are two to four feet above ear level for  
the audience (make allowances for a standing/  
dancing-in-the-aisles audience). High frequencies  
are highly directional and tend to be absorbed  
much easier than lower frequencies. By providing  
direct line-of-sight from the loudspeakers to the  
audience, you increase the overall brightness and  
intelligibility of the sound system.  
•
•
Save your sales receipt in a safe place.  
Also record the serial numbers in the space  
provided on page 3, along with where and when  
you bought them.

Protection  
HF Protection  
Assuming you want to use the full  
capability of the loudspeaker, and the  
program contains at least some momentary  
peaks, we recommend that you use  
an amplifier that is rated at twice the  
continuous power rating of the loudspeaker  
(into 8 ohms). For the 6912s, this would be  
250 watts x 2 = 500 watts per channel into  
8 ohms. This insures that the amplifier can  
reproduce peaks that are 6 dB higher than  
the continuous (rms) power-handling rating  
before clipping occurs.  
A protection circuit is built into the  
6912, 6915, and 6925 to protect their high-  
frequency compression drivers from excessive  
power. When tripped, the protection circuit  
substantially reduces the power to the  
HF driver. After the driver cools to a safe  
operating temperature, the protection  
circuit resets and normal operation resumes.  
However, if the protection circuit senses  
excessive power, it will trip again. In this case,  
it is necessary to reduce the power to the  
loudspeaker by either turning down the gain  
controls on the power amplifier or turning  
down the master volume control on the mixer  
or other sound source.

CAUTION: The protection  
circuit is designed to

conditions. Should you  
choose to ignore the warning  
Preventing Loudspeaker Damage  
Speaking of clipping, this is likely  
signs (i.e., frequent clip LED indications on  
the mixer or power amplifier, excessive  
distortion), you can still damage the drivers  
in the Series 69 loudspeakers by overdriving  
them past their recommended amplifier  
power-handling ratings, or past the point of  
amplifier clipping. Such damage is beyond  
the scope of the warranty.  
the number one cause of damage to  
loudspeakers. Clipping occurs when the  
signal at the output of any device in the  
system (not just the amplifier) reaches its  
maximum level. The input signal to the  
device may continue to increase, but the  
output simply stops, and is characterized by  
a “flat-top” appearance to the waveform.  
Amplifier Power  
Normal Sine Wave Signal ☺  
We give you two power-handling  
numbers for the Series 69 loudspeakers:  
continuous amd program. So how much  
power do you really need to drive the Series  
69 loudspeakers?  
The answer to that question depends  
on what type of program material you are  
running through the system and how loud it  
needs to be.  
Clipped Sine Wave Signal ꢀ  
Some audio signals have lots of  
momentary peaks whose amplitudes  
extend far above the average overall level  
of the program. Percussion instruments are a  
good example of this. Other types of signals,  
like highly compressed rock music, have  
a higher average signal level with fewer  
peaks. Speech reinforcement requires less  
power overall, but involves large moment-  
to-moment variations in level.  
Clipping interrupts the motion of the  
transducer, creating distortion and excessive  
heat in the driver, which can damage it  
over time.

Some folks think that if they use a power  
amplifier whose power rating is below  
the maximum power-handling rating of  
the loudspeaker, then they can’t possibly  
damage the loudspeaker. But if the amplifier  
is driven into clipping, even a lower power  
amplifier can damage the loudspeaker.  
The bottom line is that to prevent  
damage to the loudspeakers, you must  
have a properly operating sound system.  
Proper operation of a sound system includes  
being aware of the types of audio signals  
being reproduced, controlling the output  
levels accordingly, and operating all the  
devices in the system so that no clipping  
occurs within the signal chain.

If your loudspeaker needs service, follow these  
instructions:  
If you think your TAPCO Series 69 loudspeaker has  
a problem, please do everything you can to confirm  
it before calling for service. Doing so might save you  
from the deprivation of your loudspeaker and the  
associated suffering.  
1. Review the preceding troubleshooting suggestions.  
Please.  
These may sound obvious to you, but here are  
some things you can check. Read on.  
2. Call Tech Support at 1-877-827-2669, 7 am to 5  
pm PST, to explain the problem and obtain a  
Service Request Number. Have your loudspeaker’s  
serial number ready. You must have a Service  
Request Number before you can obtain factory-  
authorized service.  
Troubleshooting  
No sound  
•
Are the level controls on the mixer or amplifier  
turned all the way down? Follow the procedures  
in the “Getting Started” section on page 4 to  
verify that all the volume controls in the system are  
properly adjusted.  
3. Keep this owner’s manual. We don’t need it to  
repair the loudspeaker.  
4. Pack the loudspeaker in its original package,  
including endcaps and box. This is VERY  
IMPORTANT. When you call for the Service Request  
Number, please let Tech Support know if you need  
new packaging. TAPCO is not responsible for  
any damage that occurs due to non-factory  
packaging.  
•
•
Is the signal source working (and making union  
scale)?  
Are all the connections good and sound? Make  
sure all the connecting cables are in good repair  
and securely connected at both ends.  
One side is way louder than the other!  
5. Include a legible note stating your name,  
shipping address (no P.O. boxes), daytime phone  
number, Service Request Number, and a detailed  
description of the problem, including how we can  
duplicate it.  
•
Are the level controls set the same for both  
channels on the mixer and amplifier?  
•
Check the PAN control on the signal source. It  
may be turned too far to one side. If you’re using  
a stereo signal source, it may be delivering an out-  
of-balance stereo signal.  
6. Write the Service Request Number in BIG PRINTon  
top of the box. Units sent without the Service Request  
Number will be refused.  
•
Try swapping sides: Switch the speaker cables  
coming from the amplifier at the amplifier end. If  
the other side is louder now, the problem is with  
the amplifier, the mixer, or the signal source.  
7. Tech Support will tell you where to ship the  
loudspeaker for repair. We suggest insurance for all  
forms of cartage.  
8. You will need to contact the authorized service  
center for their latest turn-around times. The  
loudspeaker must be packaged in its original  
packing box, and must have the Service Request  
Number on the box. Once it’s repaired, the  
authorized service center will ship it back, pre-paid  
(if it was a warranty repair).  
Poor bass performance  
•
Check the polarity of the connections between  
the amplifier and the loudspeakers. You may have  
your positive and negative connections reversed  
at one end of one cable.  
Bad sound  
Note: Under the terms of the warranty, you must ship  
or drop-off the unit to an authorized service center.  
The return ground shipment is covered for those units  
deemed by us to be under warranty.  
Note: You must have a sales receipt from an  
authorized TAPCO dealer to qualify for a warranty  
repair.  
•
•
•
Is the input connector plugged completely into  
the jack? Make sure it is plugged all the way in.  
Is it loud and distorted? Reduce the signal level at  
the mixer.  
If possible, listen to the signal source with  
headphones plugged into the preamp stage. If it  
sounds bad there, it’s not the loudspeaker.  
10• Keep practicing.

Care and Maintenance  
Your TAPCO loudspeakers will provide many years  
of reliable service if you follow these simple guidelines:  
voice coils slowly by sending a low-level signal  
through them for about 15 minutes prior to high-  
power operation.  
•
•
Avoid exposing the loudspeakers to moisture. If  
they are set up outdoors, be sure they are under  
cover if you expect rain.  
•
Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to  
clean the cabinets. Avoid getting moisture into  
any of the openings of the cabinet, particularly  
where the drivers are located.  
Avoid exposure to extreme cold (below  
freezing temperatures). If you must operate the  
loudspeakers in a cold environment, warm up the  
Appendix B: Connections  
NL4-Type Plugs and Jacks  
Use heavy gauge, stranded wire for connecting  
a speaker to the output of a power amplifier. Do not  
use a guitar cord to make this connection. They  
aren’t designed to handle the high currents produced  
by a power amplifier and can overheat.  
This connector is compatible with the popular  
Neutrik® Speakon® 4-pole plugs. These connectors  
are designed to handle the higher currents produced  
by amplifiers, and have a locking feature to prevent  
accidental disconnections. Simply line up the tabs  
on the plug with the jack on the Series 69 connector  
panel, push it in, and rotate it 1/4 turn to the right to  
lock it in place.  
As the distance between the amplifier and  
speakers increases, the thickness of the wire should  
also increase. Speaker wire has resistance, and when  
electricity passes through a resistor, power is lost. The  
thicker the wire, the less resistance it offers, and the  
more power actually gets to the speaker.
