Built-in speaker head base Audac CHB196/B — 35 mm, black

The Audac CHB196/B is a built-in speaker head base designed to accept 35 mm speaker poles. Constructed from metal and plastic components and finished in black, this mounting accessory integrates into loudspeaker enclosures to provide a secure, flush-mounted connection point for speaker heads or stands. It is intended for professional and installation-grade speaker cabinets where a stable pole interface is required for either fixed or mobile audio setups.

Advantages

The integrated design ensures a low-profile, flush installation that preserves cabinet aesthetics while offering mechanical stability. Metal contact surfaces provide reliable load-bearing capacity and durability, while plastic elements reduce weight and simplify mounting. The standardized 35 mm diameter compatibility allows use with a broad range of speaker poles and stands commonly used in pro-audio environments.

Suitable for

• Mounting speaker heads on installation-grade loudspeaker cabinets
• Creating portable PA or mobile audio rigs with pole-mounted tops
• Fixed venue installations requiring a flush pole interface
• Replacement or upgrade of existing pole sockets in enclosures

Key specifications

• Compatibility: accepts 35 mm speaker poles
• Material: combination of metal and plastic components
• Finish: black
• Mounting type: built-in / flush-mounted into speaker cabinet
• Application: professional and installation-grade loudspeaker enclosures

How to use

Cut or prepare an appropriately sized recess in the speaker cabinet front or top panel to accept the built-in base. Position the CHB196/B into the cavity so that the flange sits flush with the cabinet surface, then secure it using screws through the mounting holes into the enclosure structure. Insert the 35 mm speaker pole or stand into the socket and ensure it seats fully and aligns correctly. Verify mechanical stability and load-bearing before attaching speaker heads and operating the system.

Usage recommendations

For safe installation, use proper wood or metal screws compatible with the cabinet material and tighten evenly to avoid deformation. Confirm that the chosen speaker pole and mounted load are within the mechanical capability of your cabinet construction. Periodically inspect the mounting for signs of loosening or wear, especially after transportation or heavy use.
