SweetSpot in-ceiling speakers are paintable and can accept virtually any type of 
paint. Spray and roller pain applications typically provide the best results. Be 
sure to remove the inner grille cloth prior to painting. When you are ready to 
begin painting, remember to shield the driver and tweeter from the paint. Let the 
paint dries completely prior to replacing the inner grille cloth.

SweetSpot in-ceiling speakers are designed to be flush mounted in the walls or 
ceilings. To optimize their acoustics, you should follow these simple guidelines:

For best stereo reproduction, the speakers should be placed at an equal 
distance  from  your  listening  position  and  separated  so  that  the  angle 
between them is between 40° and 60° (please refer to figure 1 on page 3). 
The units should be placed with the tweeters near the ear level of the seated 
listener, as illustrated in figure 2 on page 3.
