Placement Under Eaves and Outdoors
When mounting your speakers outdoors, the eaves of the roof
provide an ideal location. They reduce the exposure of constant
direct sunlight, salt spray, and precipitation. If installing speak-
ers on a boat, the wheelhouse provides the best location for the
same reasons. Following these suggestions will help to ensure
that your speakers will last a lifetime.
Placement on a Wall or Bookshelf
When placing your speakers on a wall or bookshelf, optimal
sound will be achieved if they are mounted at ear level or slightly
higher. The usual listening area should be no closer to the speak-
ers than the distance between the speakers themselves.

Depending upon your listening area, you may find the sound
more pleasing by pointing the tweeters in a particular direction.
If additional treble is desired, simply point the tweeter(s) towards
that area; if less treble is required, point the tweeter(s) away.
ADJUSTING THE PIVOTING TWEETER(S)
Push gently at the edge
of the tweeter to point
the tweeter in the desired
direction. Do not touch
tweeter dome.

Attach
the speaker cable to the speaker cable terminals, observing
the proper polarity with your amplifier, + to + (red) and – to
– (black). Make sure to connect the right channel to the right
speaker and the left channel to the left speaker.
AW500TTblk/wht • AW600TTblk/wht • AW800TTblk/wht:
Attach the speaker cable, observing the proper polarity with
your amplifier, + to + (red) and – to – (black). Either channel
may be attached to either terminal set, however, be sure that
polarity (+ and –) is correct on each channel or the perfor-
mance of the speaker will be seriously affected as one channel
will cancel out the other.
