Elements 2.0
1 The ELEMENTS principle
All ELEMENTS systems comprise active and passive components
as well as customized accessories. Active components include an
built-in amplifier with class D output stages, which power the passive
components. No additional amplifiers are required. For special
installation and voice applications, in which only passive loudspeakers
are used, a separate EA 600 amp element is available.
The interconnecting of passive components and the connection to
active components is cable-free for mid/high elements via E-connect,
while passive bass elements are connected with a conventional
Speakon NL4 cable. Active components are interconnected with an XLR
microphone cable.
This means ELEMENTS system components can be combined with
numerous different systems. The following diagram shows how many
passive elements can be powered by a single active component.

The following generally applies: You can reduce the number of passive
components connected to an active element to suit your needs. The
smallest ELEMENTS system accordingly consists of an E 110 Sub A
and a E 435 mid/high element. Alternatively, even just an EA 600 amp
element and an E 435 mid/high element for pure voice communication.
However, there is a limit to the number of passive components you
can connect to an active element, even if the active element provides
more power than required, depending on the combination! The key here
is not the power, but the total impedance of the passive components
connected to an active element. Since both E-connect and Speakon
are connected as parallel ports, the total impedance declines with each
additional passive element. If the impedance is too low, the electronics
of the active elements may be damaged due to overheating.

2 Assembly and connection of
elements
When assembling, please ensure the active system components are
switched off, otherwise there is a risk of damage! Set the bass gain
knob in the middle position with (0 dB / click center). Always start by
assembling the complete system together with cabling and only then
connect the active components. When disassembling: first switch off all
active system components.
Caution: Be careful to ensure that the voltage data shown on
the active components corresponds to the local mains voltage.
Connecting to excess mains voltage may destroy the electronic
equipment.
Bass elements
When using an individual bass element, always ensure it is placed on a
firm and level surface. Depending on the operating mode and system
configuration, E-connect allows bass elements to be installed on either
the short or long sides, while four rubber feet at the base ensure vertical
stability. When installing horizontally, one long side of the housing has
two runners, while the opposite housing side has appropriate grooves,
which allow multiple bass elements to be safely stacked on top of each
other.
When using more than one bass element, it is advisable to start with the
passive bass horizontally, and then stack the active bass on top, so that
it can power the mid/high element via E-connect.
Mid/high elements
E-connect facilitates the swift and secure signal connection of the
element, by establishing the electrical and mechanical connection to the
nearest mid/high element, bass, spacer stem, or the foot. The durable
bayonet system ensures a safe mechanical connection when installing
simply by clicking the components together and also transmits the
loudspeaker signal.
Connecting the elements
Push!
Position the components to be connected such that the respective tube
joints are over each other. To fix the individual components together
securely, insert the tube joint of the upper element completely into the
adjusting sleeve of the lower element. Be careful to ensure that the
release button snaps into the relevant adjusting hole.
