INTRODUCTION  
Thank you for purchasing an X Series 1110X / 1201X  
/ 1205X Loudspeaker System from Fender® Pro  
Audio. We are sure you will find it both a unique and  
effective sound reinforcement product, providing  
years of trouble-free service day in and day out.  
High Current 1/4” Phone Jacks  
Dual Piezoelectric Horn  
Rugged Metal Grille  
X Series Loudspeaker Systems are professional, full-  
range, two-way, compact loudspeakers designed for  
the most demanding permanent or portable sound  
reinforcement requirements. Moreover, thesespeakers  
are ideal for use as a two-way system or as the mid /  
high pack in a three-way set-up incorporating a Fender  
115sA / 118sA subwoofer loudspeaker system.  
Metal Corners and Rubber Feet  
Tough Tolex® Covering  
X Series Loudspeaker Systems are designed to form  
the basis of everything from a small public address  
systemtothenightlyrigorsofaworkingband’s” sound  
system. After moisture sealing, X Series cabinets are  
covered in tough black Tolex® covering. Likewise, X  
Series cabinets also feature metal corners and rubber  
feet for a longer life and lasting looks.

CAUTION: Almost all speakers produce strong  
magnetic fields which may interfere with the  
normal operation of nearby electronic devices,

To reduce or eliminate interference, increase the  
distance between this product and other nearby  
electronic devices.

SPEAKER WIRING AND CONNECTIONS  
Parallel or series are the two basic ways which multiple Keep in mind, power and audio signal cables are the  
speakerscanbeconnectedtoasinglepoweramplifier. most common sources of sound system failure. Well  
When speakers are connected in parallel, their made and carefully maintained cables are essential to  
combined impedance decreases. For speakers wired thereliabilityoftheentiresoundsystem. Iflongspeaker  
in series the opposite is true, their combined cablesarerequired,itisimportanttoensurethecable‘s  
impedance increases. Thus, when speakers are wired gauge is sufficient to transfer all of the available  
inseries,higherimpedancespeakersintheseriesdraw amplifier power to the speakers rather than absorbing  
more power from the amplifier than do speakers in the the power itself. As a rule of thumb, larger wires are  
series with lower impedances. When speakers are better as they conduct more power to the speakers  
wired in parallel, the opposite is true. Higher (larger wire has smaller gauge numbers).  
impedance speakers will draw less power from the  
amplifier than lower impedance speakers will draw.  
Below are two charts listing speaker wire gauges and  
recommendations for best results.  
At Fender®, we recommend connecting multiple  
speakers in parallel for several reasons. First, if one  
speakerfails,theotherswillcontinuetooperate. Second,  
because in a series connection one speaker affects the  
output of the other speakers, unpredictable frequency  
response is a concern. Third, most speaker cabinets  
are already wired for parallel connections making parallel  
connections the most common wiring method.

The X Series Loudspeaker Systems’ 1/4" jacks are  
wired in parallel allowing any one of the connectors to  
be used as an input and any other as an output. This  
allows "daisy chaining" of multiple loudspeakers,  
eliminatingtheneed forseverallong, cumbersomeruns  
of speaker cable (see diagram on page 6). Their  
connections are as follows:

NOTE: When setting up your X Series enclosures, be  
sure to place the cabinets in such a way as to minimize  
overlapping radiating patterns.

A second consideration is for feedback and bass  
performance. If the speaker is placed near a large, flat  
wall, the bass output will increase by approximately 6  
dB. Placing the speaker near a wall can cause  
feedback. If this occurs, the speaker must be moved.  
If X enclosures are used as the mid / high pack in a larger  
three-way loudspeaker array, an external crossover  
may be used with the speaker and two channels of  
power amplification will be required: one for the low  
frequencies and another for the high frequencies (see  
diagram on page 7).  
A third consideration is to what degree the speaker  
should be "heard and not seen", especially in  
permanent installations. Remember, where the  
speaker cabinets are placed will effect both their tone  
and radiating patterns.  
SETUP SUGGESTIONS  
The placement of any speaker can dramatically affect  
its sound. Thus, there are several considerations to  
review when placing loudspeakers.  
CARPET COVERING CARE  
First, the range of the horizontal coverage should be  
determined. The speaker may be used as a single unit,  
as part of a pair, or as part of a group of widely spaced  
enclosures,inanycase,maximumhorizontalcoverage  
will be desired. Examples of these types of setups  
are shown. The horn in this configuration has a  
horizontal coverage angle of 70º and a vertical  
coverage of 35º.  
X Series cabinets are covered in a  
tough, black Tolex covering for long life  
and lasting good looks. To clean the  
Tolexcovering, useaspongeand alight  
soapy water solution to wipe away any  
smudges or dirt. For stubborn stains,  
a slightly more concentrated soapy solution may be  
used. Avoid spilling liquids on the input panel, grille  
and speakers.
