Product Description
The Bose® Panaray® MA12 Modular Line Array Loudspeaker System is a modular system used
for mid/high frequency sound reproduction. It is a vented enclosure design using 12 full range
drivers housed in a closely spaced line.
The loudspeaker provides a means for mechanical attachment of two units to form a rigid single
line source by using the CB-MA12 coupling bracket (see table below). Each loudspeaker has
two Neutrik® connectors and one barrier style terminal so that multiple units can be connected
as a system in series and parallel.
The Bose Panaray MA12 Loudspeaker can be used with the Bose Panaray MB4 Modular Bass
Loudspeaker for dynamic full range reproduction.

Note: Refer to the figure below for the
following procedures.
1. End Cap Removal
1.1 Using a Phillips-head screwdriver,
remove the six screws (4) that secure the
steel end cap (5) to the housing and grille
trim.
1.2 Gently pull the end cap away from the
housing.
Re-assembly Note: When replacing the end
cap, ensure that it is fully seated against the
housing for an airtight seal. Replace all six
screws to prevent air leaks.
2. Grille Assembly Removal
2.1 Remove the two screws at the front of
each end cap.
2.3 Gently pull the grille assembly away
from the housing. Be careful not to mark
the surface of the grille or the housing.
3. Driver Removal
3.1 Perform procedure 2.
3.2 Using a Phillips-head screwdriver,
remove the sixteen screws (8) that secure
the baffle to the housing.
3.3 Lift the baffle with the six drivers (7) out
of the housing.
3.4 Unplug the driver cable wires from the
driver you wish to remove.
3.5 Using a Phillips-head screwdriver,
remove the four screws (9) that secure the
driver to the baffle. Lift out the driver.
2.2 Take the grille trim (14) along with the Urubber channel (13) away from the end of
the grille (11).

INPUT OUTPUT
Figure 5. Panaray® MA12 Test Setup Diagram
1. Air Leak Test
1.1 Set up the system for test as shown in
Figure 5.
1.2 Apply a 100 Hz, 10 Vrms sine wave to
the input connectors.
1.3 Listen carefully for any air leaks from
around the end cap, drivers and the baffle.
Air leaks will be heard as a hissing or sputtering sound. All repairs must be hidden.
Test duration should be 5 seconds minimum.
2. Rub and Tick Test
2.1 Perform disassembly procedure 3. It is
not necessary to unplug the wires at the
driver assembly terminals.
2.2 Connect a signal generator directly to
the terminals of the driver under test.
If the noise stays the same, it is normal
suspension noise and the driver is fine.
Suspension noise will not be heard with
program material.
3. Phase Test
3.1 Momentarily apply 10 VDC to the loud-
speaker input connector. Apply the positive
to pin “1+” and the negative to pin “1-” of the
®
Neutrik
connector.
3.2 When applying the DC voltage level,
observe the driver cones. They should all
move outward when the DC level is applied.
3.3 Rewire any incorrectly wired driver.
4. System Sweep Test
4.1 Set up the system for test as shown in
Figure 5.
2.3 Apply a 20 Hz, 5 Vrms sine wave to the
driver assembly.
2.4 Listen carefully for any extraneous
noises, such as rubbing, scraping or ticking.
Note: To distinguish between normal suspension noise and rubs or ticks, displace the
cone slightly with your fingers.
4.2 Apply a 10 Hz, 10 Vrms sine wave to the
loudspeaker input connector.
4.3 While listening to the output of the
system, sweep the input frequency slowly
from 10 Hz to 20 kHz.
4.4 Listen carefully for any extraneous
noises such as buzzing or ticking.
