Ceiling Mounting
Non-powered NuQ cabinets can be ceiling mounted using OmniMount™ ceiling brackets
from the 60 series and 120 series ranges. The brackets attach to the rear of the cabinet
and allow a range of angle adjustment. To install a cabinet using OmniMount ceiling
brackets:
• Remove the blanking screws from the rear panel of the loudspeaker (there are
two M6 hex countersunk screws on the NuQ-8 and NuQ-10, and four M6 hex
countersunk on the NuQ-12 and NuQ-15).
• Mount the bracket to the ceiling using suitable fixings.
• Offer up the loudspeaker using suitable lifting equipment and attach the speaker
plate to the rigging points on the rear of the loudspeaker.
• Angle as necessary and tighten all fixings.
Small Loudspeaker Arrays
NuQ series loudspeakers offer two choices of dispersion pattern, and this facility gives
considerable flexibility of coverage when assembling small loudspeaker arrays. By
rotating the Converging Elliptical Waveguides within the cabinet it is possible to obtain
either wide horizontal coverage or narrow horizontal coverage. The table below shows
the possible dispersion options for each model.

Horizontal Rigging
Where ceiling height is limited or for other aesthetic reasons it may be desirable to mount
cabinets horizontally. The NuQ-SB horizontal
swivel bracket is used for this purpose, and can
be fixed directly to a ceilings, or truss mounted
using the SC-01 scaffold clamp. The swivel
bracket is attached to the M10 rigging point at the
top of the cabinet and to the pole mount socket at
the bottom. In order to maintain a wide horizontal
coverage pattern when flying the cabinet
horizontally the high frequency horn should be
rotated through 90°. For instructions on rotating
the horn please refer to the servicing section of
