Part 2
1. Locate the 12 long black machine screws included with each speaker pair. Six
screws will be used with each speaker.
2. Remove the perforated metal grill from the front of each speaker to be installed.
This is most easily accomplished by using one of the machine screws to poke
through the mounting hole on the back of the speaker plate. You may need to
poke through multiple of the mounting holes to force the speaker grill out of the
mounting frame. Take care not to press too hard against the back of the grill with
the screw, as it may bend the grill.
3. Insert the machine screws into the mounting holes in the front of each speaker (six
each), in a manner that each screw protrudes from the back of the speaker baffle.
4. Locate the rectangular mounting frame provided for each speaker. Carefully laying
the speaker on its face, place the rectangular frame on the back of the speaker in a
manner that lines up the holes in the frame with each of the machine screws
protruding from the back of the speaker baffle. Screw each machine screw
approximately 1/4” into the metal mounting frame.
5. Attach the speaker wire to the ( – ) and ( + ) connections on the rear of the
enclosure. Take care to observe correct polarity.
6. Fully insert the speaker into the wall in a manner that positions the speaker baffle
in front of the wallboard, with the metal mounting frame behind the wallboard.
7. In a circular pattern, begin to tighten the six mounting screws. Care should be
taken when tightening these screws. Make sure the screwdriver is secure in the
head of the screw and does not slip out and damage the speaker cone.
8. As screws are tightened, the metal frame will draw up against the rear of the
drywall. If using a drill to tighten screws, tighten all six until the speaker frame just
makes contact with the wall. From there, it is best to use a hand screwdriver to
fully tighten. This will prevent potential breakage of the plastic speaker frame.
9. In an alternating cross pattern, (center left, center right, top left, bottom right, top
right, bottom left) tighten all six screws, by hand, until the speaker frame is snug
against the wall. Take care not to over-tighten as this may damage the mounting
clips or the mounting frame.
10. Once all screws are tightened, the grill may be reinstalled on the front of the
speaker.
11. The other end of the speaker wire is now ready for connection to the sound source
