Before You Begin
The Cerwin-Vega CVE powered speaker series, which consists of our tower speakers CVE-10, CVE-12,
CVE-15 and also our CVE-18S high powered subwoofer is covered in this guide.
The CVEs are designed for both mobile and some fixed applications where the speakers will be
appropriately installed on a tripod stand, pole, flown using the CVE wall bracket, or stacked on a
sturdy platform such as a floor or stage.
Cerwin-Vega does not support suspension of the subwoofer model CVE-18S covered by this guide
nor are these models intended for outdoor or high-moisture fixed installations. Moisture can
damage the speaker cone or surround and cause corrosion of electrical contacts so avoid exposing
the speakers to direct moisture.
Cerwin-Vega speakers are capable of producing a lot of acoustical energy. The speaker might be
prone to movement if placed on a slick surface like polished wood or linoleum because of its own
vibrations. To ensure that the speaker doesn't fall off a stage or table that it is put on, safety
precautions should always be implemented to prevent this from happening.
Our CVE speakers include a pole cup to allow mounting of a satellite speaker on top of the subwoofer
using a standard speaker pole shaft. When using a standard speaker pole shaft, be sure to observe
the following precautions:
• Check the speaker pole shaft specs to be certain it can support the weight of the speakers.
• Observe all safety precautions specified by the speaker pole shaft manufacturer.
• Always verify that the subwoofer is placed on a flat, level, and stable surface.
• Route cables so that foot traffic will not trip over them, toppling the speaker.
• Always be cautious in windy conditions as the stability of the entire system may be compromised.
Cerwin-Vega speakers are easily capable of generating sound pressure levels (SPL) of sufficient
magnitude to cause permanent hearing damage to performers, production crew and audience
members. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to SPL more than 90 dB(A).
