2) Painting the Grille
In some situations the speakers
may look better if the color
matched the walls, ceiling, or
trim in the room. This can be
accomplished by painting the
grille. The grille must be paint-
ed with spray paint, and most
hardware stores will mix a can
of paint to match whatever col-
or you need.
Before painting, carefully
remove the thin cloth on the
underside of the grille. Lightly
spray the front of the grille
with the paint from a distance,
being careful not to plug any
of the holes. Diluting the paint
with paint thinner will lessen
the risk of filling any holes. If
a hole is plugged, use a can of
compressed air to open it. Once
the paint is dry, put the cloth
back on the grille.
3) Cutting the Hole
When you’ve decided on the locations for all of the speakers, use
the template to trace a rectangle lightly in pencil where the hole
should be. If you’re unsure on whether there may be obstacles
(such as pipes or wires) where you plan on installing the speaker,
drill a ⅛ inch hole in the center of the rectangle, then put a bent
coat hanger through the hole to feel around. If there are no obsta-
cles, use a keyhole or drywall saw to cut the hole.
4) Connecting the Wires

Figure 9.1: Connecting the Wires
Push down on the top of the
connector and insert the wire,
making sure that the positive
is being attached to the red
connection and the negative
is being attached to the black
connection. If the negative and
positive wires are switched,
speaker performance will be
drastically impacted.
