The unique integral six-foot mounting system incorporated
into each Inwall Speaker allows for a quick installation by
following these easy steps:
1. Remove the grille from the speaker baffle.
2. Attach the speaker cable (observing the proper polarity with
your amplifier, + to + and – to –). Make sure the left channel
of the amplifier is connected to the left speaker, the right
channel is connected to the right speaker, etc.
3. Make sure the mounting feet are turned inward to clear the
opening, and insert the speaker into the wall. Position the
speaker into the hole. Note:
The speaker is designed to flex
and conform to any small imperfections in the wall’s surface.
Tighten the six screws on the front of the baffle only enough
to make the speaker become snug against the wall. As you
tighten the screws, the feet will automatically flip into an
outward position (See Diagram 2), thereby clamping the dry-
wall between the feet and the speaker.
CAUTION: Over-tightening may warp the baffle, crack the
wall or cause difficulty in aligning the grille.
4. Reattach the grille onto the speaker baffle.

Mounting Feet
The Inwall Speakers come from the factory with the tweeter
facing straight out from the baffle. This will result in the overall
smoothest response. However, depending on your particular
primary listening area, room acoustics, ceiling height, or
personal preference, you may find the sound more pleasing
by pointing the tweeters in a particular direction. If additional
treble is desired in the primary listening area, point the tweeter
towards that area; and if less treble is required, point the tweeter
away. When used in a home theater environment as side or rear
channel speakers, the best result will be obtained by pointing
the tweeters toward an adjacent wall. Push gently at the edge
of the tweeter to point it in the desired direction. (See Diagram 3)
NOTE:
The tweeters on the W667 do not pivot.
CAUTION: Avoid touching metal dome tweeters, as damage
may occur (W852, W802, W692 & W682).
Tweeter Adjustment (W852, W802, W692 & W682):
The switch labeled TREBLE allows for 3dB of treble adjustment.
Your speakers were shipped with the treble switch in the “–”
position, providing the most linear frequency response. If you
desire more treble, move the switch to the “+” position, and the
tweeter will play 3dB higher. To return to the neutral setting,
push the switch back to the “–” position. (See Diagram 4)
Woofer Adjustment (W852, W802, W692 & W682):
The switch labeled BASS allows for 3dB of bass adjustment.
Your speakers were shipped with the bass set to “–”. This set-
ting provides the flattest bass frequency response. If you desire
more bass, push the switch to the “+” position and the bass
will play 3dB higher. To return to the neutral setting, push the
switch back to the “–” position. (See Diagram 4)
SPEAKER ADJUSTMENTS
We recommend painting your grilles prior to installation. If
you decide to paint them in the future, it's best to remove the
grilles by simply detaching them from the speakers. Do not
paint the grilles while they are installed on the speakers.
Before painting, be sure to remove the cloth material from
beneath the grille. Once painted, place the cloth back to its
position beneath the grille.
When painting, be careful not to clog the holes of the grille.
The sound of the speaker will be dramatically reduced if the
perforations in the grille are covered in paint.
Proficient recommends only light spray painting using five
parts thinning agent to one part paint.
