A SHORT TEST DRIVE
It’s a good idea to test everything out at this
point. Also, although we’ve paid close attention to
speaker polarity, we haven’t concerned ourselves
with which wires went to left and right speakers.
m
1. Turn on your stereo system. Make sure that
the VOLUME control is turned down and
that the BALANCE control is set to center.
m
2. Activate a musical source such as FM,
a tape or CD player.
m
3. Gently turn up the volume. You should
hear music coming out of your new B.I.C
In-Wall Speakers! (If you don’t, refer to the
troubleshooting guide on the next page.)
m
4. Now rotate the stereo’s BALANCE control
all the way to the LEFT. Sound should only
come out of your left speaker. If it comes
out of the RIGHT speaker, skip to Step 6B.
m
5. Rotate the BALANCE control all the way to
the RIGHT. Sound should only come out
of the right speaker.
m
6. If this is the case, your installation is a
success. We suggest you read the section
on the next page titled
“Taking Care of
Your New B.I.C Speakers”
(for further
operating tips).
m
6B. If sound comes from the right speaker
when the stereo’s balance control is
turned to the LEFT, you’ll need to change
the connections on the back of the amp
or receiver.
• FIRST TURN OFF THE AMPLIFIER!
• Then swap the wires attached to the left
and right speaker terminals.

FINAL ASSEMBLY
1. If you haven’t done so already during
painting, remove the perforated grilles from
from your B.I.C In-Wall Speaker. To remove
the grille, just use the mounting screw
(dog leg) on the rear to push the grille off.
2. See Drawing 11. Make sure all the clamping
brackets (dog legs) are turned inward as
shown in the picture before installing.
3. Insert the speaker into the cutout hole.
4. Using a Phillips screwdriver (or powered
screwdriver, recommended), start tightening
the six screws. As you start the tightening
each of the mounting brackets (dog legs) will
swing around and follow the screw down to
the back of the wall and clamp the speaker
into place. Avoid excessive force when
tightening the screws to prevent deforming
the drywall or breaking the plastic clamp of
the speaker. Be sure to go around all six
screws and check for even tightness in the
clamping pressure.
5. Replace the grille by gently pressing it into
place. Use the supplied black grille adhesive
around the edge of the grille when pressing
it into place.
6. Repeat hookup and final assembly for
other speaker.
