Congratulations on choosing PSB CustomSound Series speakers. Please take
the time to read the instructions in this guide, as they will help you enjoy the full
potential of your loudspeakers in any stereo or multichannel home theater
application.
I. WARRANTY REGISTRATION
We recommend you take a few moments now to register your warranty,
preferably on-line at psbspeakers.com/w/Warranty.html or via the enclosed
registration form so that we will be able to serve you better in the future.
II. UNPACKING
The packing materials of your PSB speakers are designed to protect them from
damage during shipping. Retain the packaging in case the need arises to
transport the speakers in the future.
III. MATERIALS AND TOOLS
The only other materials necessary to install CustomSound speakers are paint
and extra fine sandpaper if you wish to change the color of Grills and/or Finish
Frames from their standard white. Of course, wire cable of appropriate length and
size will be necessary to connect speakers to amplifiers (or volume controls) in
the music system.
A. Required Tools
The following tools are needed for normal, simple installations:
Tape Measure, Pencil, and Level
Utility Knife and Wallboard Saw (and extra blades)
Philips Screwdriver and Putty Knife
Drill and Bits (smaller for lead holes and larger for cabling)
Probe Wire (a heavy coat hanger can substitute for a short fish-tape)
Flashlight
B. Other Tools
Particularly when installing a quantity of speakers, or installing in wood
paneling or other wall materials, the following tools are desirable for neater
and more efficient installations:
Stud Finder (helpful—particularly with simple, wallboard-on-studs
construction)
Metal Straight Edge (Ruler or Framing Square) and Masking Tape
Wallboard Rasp/Sanding Block (or a piece of wire lath around a block)
Awl or Worn Screwdriver (for initial, exploratory holes) and Hammer
Wire Cutters/Strippers and Electrical Tape
Battery Screwdriver and Power Drill and Extensions (with extra bits)
Jig Saw and Blades
Wallboard Router and Cutout Bits
