Fender knows the importance of sound reinforcement. From the loudspeaker enclosure
to today's professional touring concert systems, the need to communicate, to make the
connection between the person speaking and the audience is foremost in our mind.

Moreover, we understand that how your message is delivered is just as important as
the message itself. You see, your sound system is more than just a combination of
dials, wires and speakers. It plays an integral part in ensuring that your thoughts and
ideas are heard. Thus, your sound system should be treated with special care and
attention to detail.

At Fender, we know what building quality musical instruments and sound reinforcement
equipment is all about. In fact, many of the world's best sounding electric musical
instruments and sound reinforcement equipment proudly wear the Fender name.

Whether you simply need loudspeaker systems to compliment your existing setup or a
complete sound system, Fender has the sound reinforcement equipment that will meet
your needs. Likewise, your decision to purchase Fender pro audio gear is one you will
appreciate with each performance for years to come.

Wishing you years of enjoyment and a heartfelt thank you,

Bill Schultz

Thank you for purchasing a Contractor Series CS­215 Professional Subwoofer from Fender®Pro Audio.
We are sure you will find it both a unique and effective
sound reinforcement product, providing years of
trouble-free service.

Designed for the most demanding sound
contracting requirements, the cabinet’s multiple
cavities and internal wood bracing helps eliminate
side wall movement. This design results in low
distortion, very high power handling and very high
SPL output. Likewise, large ports on the CS-215
cabinet prevent compression at high SPL due to
large exit velocities.

Housed in a sanded unfinished cabinet, the CS-215
offers the flexibility of painting and varnishing the
cabinet to your specifications. Also, a black
annodized pole (p/n 071-1359-000) is available for
placing a mid or high range enclosure over the CS-

215.

-Only use Fender Mounting Pole (P/N 071-1359-

000) to support the full range cabinets.

CAUTION:

-Almost all speakers produce strong magnetic
fields which may interfere with the normal
operation of nearby electronic devices,
including televisions and computer video
monitors. To reduce or eliminate interference,
increase the distance between this product and
other nearby electronic devices.
