B. “Trim-out” 

steps: 

 

1.  After drywall and/or painting is complete, push the speaker wire 

through hole, center template over hole, mark with a pencil and cut 
out with a dry-wall knife. 
 

2.

 

Hold the speaker with one hand, (if speaker grill is off, pay careful 
attention 

not 

to push on the woofer’s cone, this can cause 

permanent contortion of the voice coil, thus producing a 
mechanical rubbing sound or speaker failure), push in the speaker 
terminal connectors and insert wires; remove speaker grill.  Be 
sure to have the positive wires in the RED terminals and the 
negative wires in the BLACK terminals.  

 

NOTE: Wiring both drivers of this speaker identically as the 
above instruction states will yield a speaker whose drivers are 
“in phase”.  If one speaker driver is wired opposite of the 
other, the speaker drivers will be “out of phase” with one 
another.  If the speaker drivers are “out of phase” the sound 
might appear smeared (canned) and a significant loss of bass 
might be noticeable due to phase cancellation.  Make sure 
every installed speaker is correctly phased. 

 

3.   Rotate the speaker driver towards the listening area and use 

one hand to push the speaker into the cut out (again, pay 
careful attention 

not

 to push on the woofer’s cone, this can 

cause permanent contortion of the voice coil, thus producing 
mechanical rubbing sound or speaker failure) and the other to 
turn the screws that engage the installation tabs (see

 Figure 

5

). Tighten the tabs in a cross or X-pattern until “snug”.  Be 

careful not to over tighten the tabs or damage could result. The 
speaker should appear flush to the surface.  
 

NOTE: If using a cordless drill/screwdriver, it is suggested 
that the screws be turned until almost tight, then finish 
tightening via a hand screwdriver. 
 
NOTE: A strip of grill adhesive is provided to more securely attach the speaker grills on final 
installation. Simply insert several short strips evenly around the grill slot prior to installing the 
grill cover. Prior to final installation of the grill, adjust the tweeter for optimum sound at the 
listening area.
