SAFETY WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES 

 

Turn off and unplug all equipment prior to making electrical connections, including 
speaker wire connections. 

 

Reduce the volume level prior to making any change to the audio input source, e.g., 
changing radio stations or changing CDs. 

 

When using this speaker as part of a constant voltage speaker system, ensure that 
the amplifier power is at least 20% higher than the total power settings of the 
connected speakers. 

 

Most speaker damage is caused by clipping, which is heard as distortion. If you hear 
distortion, reduce the volume level until the audio is no longer distorted. 

 

Take care to ensure that the speaker wire connections are properly polarized. 
Inverted polarization can result in unnatural or attenuated sound, especially in the 
bass frequencies. 

 

Do not use chemical cleaners or solvents to clean this speaker. Use only a soft, dry 
cloth. Moisten the cloth with warm water for particularly stubborn deposits. 

 

INTRODUCTION 

Thank you for purchasing this Coaxial In-Ceiling Speaker! 
This 2-way speaker features a built-in step-down transformer, allowing it to be used as part 
of a 70V or 100V constant voltage speaker array with four (100V) or five (70V) taps. It can 
also be configured as a conventional 8-ohm speaker for use in a standard home theater 
audio system. The speaker has a preinstalled back can, which helps deliver superior audio 
quality.
