1.1 Introducon

Thank you for purchasing a Blaze Audio CCA10i-BA loudspeaker. The CCA10i-BA is a constant curvature, arrayable

point source loudspeaker, designed for medium-sized venues to large distributed systems that require a exible and

scalable loudspeaker soluon. Mounted horizontally with ght acousc centres to minimize comb ltering, each

CCA10i-BA enclosure provides xed 20° vercal and 160° horizontal coverage. CCA10i-BA loudspeakers are designed

to be own with addional enclosures in vercal arrays.

The CCA10i-BA features a coaxial compression driver employing individual midrange and high-frequency polymer ring diaphragms.

The driver delivers extremely wide bandwidth from 420 Hz – 18,000 Hz. For low frequencies, dual 10” high-excursion drivers deliver

ecient and accurate bass down to 52 Hz (-3 dB) with minimal distoron and power compression.

Note: Rigging accessories are supplied complete with the appropriate

bolts, nuts, washers and other necessary aachment items.

Note: A steel Rigging Grid is available to order for installaons where

specic structural and regulatory demands require it.

2. Applicaons and Deployment

Basic CCA10i-BA Array Assem-

bly

IMPORTANT: In all cases, when rigging

loudspeakers together, aach the boommost

unit to the loudspeaker directly above it, moving

up the array to the topmost unit, ending with the

Rigging Grid.

WARNING: The CCA10i-BA weighs 83lbs / 37.65kg. Use proper

liing techniques to avoid serious injury. Please see Secon 2.4

for Maximum Suspended Load.

2.1 Applicaons

The CCA10i-BA can be congured as an individual point-source loudspeaker or in a vercal array with mulple

CCA10i-BA loudspeakers. Integrated rigging enables easy and secure box-to-box deployment. Flying CCA10i-BA

loudspeakers, requires the CCA10i-BA Rigging Grid. This separately sold item enables the suspension up to ve

(5) CCA10i-BA loudspeakers. Arrays of greater than ve CCA10i-BA loudspeakers are possible but will require

customized Blaze Audio rigging accessories. The basic CC10i-BA rig, array and suspension principle is illustrated below

however for all supported rigging conguraons, see the chart in Secon 2.3.

WARNING: When assembling or disassembling arrayed

loudspeakers, make sure that all components are properly

supported throughout the enre process to avoid damage or

injury.

WARNING: To ensure secure aachment, verify that the

loudspeakers are properly aligned for box-to-box vercal

aachment. If loudspeakers are not properly aligned, physical

damage, and personal injury may occur. The top of each

loudspeaker must be parallel to the boom of the unit above it.

For suspension, the topmost unit must be securely aached to

the CCA10i-BA Rigging Grid.

2. Applicaons and Deployment

• Read these instrucons.

• Keep these instrucons.

• Heed all warnings.

• Follow all instrucons.

• Before installing or suspending any CCA10i-BA loudspeaker,

inspect all hardware, the enclosure, and associated equipment

for damage. Missing, corroded, or deformed components, or

components without correct load rangs, could signicantly

reduce the strength of the installaon or placement and should

immediately be repaired or replaced.

• Always make sure that the structure the loudspeaker is to be

suspended from has been approved by the building or structural

engineer and will support the weight of all the components

of the speaker system including speakers, speaker cable, wire

rope, etc.

• Consult a licensed professional structural engineer regarding

physical equipment installaon.

• Do not suspend loudspeakers directly over people.

• Use only hardware that is rated for the load condions of

the installaon and that allows for a possible short-term,

unexpected overload. Never exceed the rang of the hardware

or equipment.

• Blaze Audio strongly recommends that the system be inspected

at least once a year and logged. If any sign of weakness

or damage is detected, remedial acon should be taken

immediately.

• All installaon crew members must be trained for loudspeaker

rigging and mounng.

• Make sure that all relevant health and safety regulaons

are known, are followed by the installaon crew, and follow

applicable local laws. Local government oces can help with

this informaon.

• Suspended installaons must be completed or supervised by a

cered rigger.

• The system should be designed so that it is a stac suspension.

There should be no dynamic or shock loading.

• Personal protecve equipment (hard hats, steel-toed footwear,

safety glasses, etc.) should be always worn by the installaon

crew.

• If called for in the design, make sure all installaon personnel

are trained to work at height and have cercaons for scissor

lis, theatrical hoists, etc.

• Make sure all liing equipment (slings, span-sets, deck chain,

scaolding, etc.) is in good working order. Thoroughly inspect all

components prior to use.

• Inspect all the components associated with the project

for damage before assembly. Any parts with damage or

suspected damage should not be used. Contact the component

manufacturer for replacement parts if necessary.

• Keep a dy workplace. Do not leave tools, rigging items, etc., on

top of loudspeakers during installaon. Loose items can fall and

cause injury.

• Never leave the system unaended during the installaon

process. Make sure that the workspace is isolated from

public access. No one should be allowed to pass beneath the

loudspeakers during installaon.

• Do not suspend any other components or loudspeakers other

than the supported conguraons described in this manual.

• If secondary steel safees are required, they should be installed

once the enre system is at operang height and before public

access is allowed.
