INSTALLATION
For ceiling mounting, install the speakers in symmetrical
locations. For wall mounting, ensure that speakers are
equidistant from the floor.
Use the enclosed template to determine the correct cut-out
dimensions. Cut the hole or opening using a sheet rock saw,
keyhole saw or other suitable tool. Place the speaker in the
opening to verify a flush fit.
Remove speaker grille to gain access to the screws that
turn the mounting tabs, which are located by turning the
speaker over and pushing on the tab. The corresponding
screw head will protrude, indicating which screws will need
to be turned once the speaker is connected and mounted.
Run wires from the amplifier to the speakers, allowing an
extra ’ of wire at the cutout location. Strip and twist 1/” of
insulation off the wires. Wire runs should be hidden in the
wall or ceiling and should not touch the speaker basket,
wrap around the crossover network or hang loosely near a
stud. Vibration may cause poor sound quality.
Insert the speaker into the hole cut in the wall or ceiling,
and center the speaker in the opening. Attach the wires and
secure speaker in a flush position. Turn the screw heads on
the mounting tabs clockwise to tighten the tabs against the
interior surface of the wall or ceiling.
Test the system to ensure all connections are correct.
Adjustable tweeters can be rotated or pivoted to a
maximum of 0 degrees off axis. Do not force the pivots
beyond the limits of the built-in stop positions.
Replace the white grille into the speaker baffle. If a color
other than white is desired, the baffle and grille can be
painted to match any interior. Most indoor paint types
are suitable. Primer can be used when darker colors are
required. Do not paint the inner black baffle or drivers,
as this will affect sound quality and reduce performance
dramatically. When using spray method of painting, mask
the interior baffle to protect the drivers from overspray.
