Grille Removal and Driver Rotation
The DDX full range cabinets may be used in portrait or landscape orientation. For the loudspeaker to perform correctly when in landscape
orientation it is necessary to rotate the driver through 90° to preserve the asymmetric dispersion. The loudspeakers are designed to make
this as straightforward as possible with spring-loaded grilles which are easily removed, and with drivers secured with hexagonal head
screws. It is also possible to rotate the Martin Audio badge on the grille.
Grille Removal
No screws are used to hold the grille in place. The grilles are manufactured with a natural spring which holds them in place within slots
on each side of the cabinets.
Insert the screwdriver blade into one of the gaps, either at the
top or bottom of the cabinet.
Gently push the handle down. This will ease the grille out of the
slot, it may have bitten into the paint surface so you just need to
make sure it is free to be lifted clear.
Now lift the handle up. This will ease the grille forward slightly
to prevent the return on the grille dropping straight back into
the slot.
The grilles have two or three gaps in the sides into which an
appropriately sized flat-bladed screwdriver can be inserted to
remove the grille.
Repeat this process for the remaining gaps in the grille to ease it out of the slot all the way up one side of the cabinet. When you get to the
final gap the grille should pop out and away from the front of the cabinet.
To replace the grille, first insert one side into the slot on one side of the cabinet. Make sure the return on the grille is completely engaged
in the slot. Push on the front of the grille with the flat of your hand, which will encourage the other edge of the grille to locate on the side
of the cabinet close to the slot. Now push the edge of the grille back starting at the top or the bottom to engage the return in the slot. You
may need to do this a little at a time, working down the length of the grille until it pops into place.
