1.

 

Use the included cardboard template to trace the outline of the hole for the 
speaker and carefully cut to the line.  

2.

 

Carefully remove the magnetic grille, tipping it off from one side to the other 
(not from one end to the other), to avoid damaging the grille. Set it aside, 
laying it at. 

 

3.

 

Push any insulation in the wall to the side. If there is no insulation in the 
wall, loosely fill the stud bay with insulation to reduce cavity resonances 
and improve performance. 

 

4.

 

Using assistance to hold the speaker away from the wall, connect the 
speaker cable to the + and – connectors on the rear of the speaker, paying 
attention to proper polarity. 

5.

 

Make sure all the speaker clamps are retracted in their “ready-to- mount” 
position at the tops of the mount towers, tucked within the mounting 
opening's border.  

6.

 

Insert the speaker straight into the mounting opening. Tighten the speaker 
clamp screws on the front of the speaker baffle. The speaker clamps will 
automatically rotate into position and begin clamping the speaker.  

7.

 

When you notice resistance on the screws the speaker has been clamped 
successfully. 

IMPORTANT:

 

Always use low-torque settings. NEVER over-

tighten the clamp screws.  

The P4m and Subwoofers 

All Insight Series loudspeakers are optimized for use with subwoofers, with a 
crossover of 80 Hz. (This is the most common frequency below which subwoofers 
are used.)  

When properly installed in the wall, your P4m has inherently at response to 80 Hz, 
without the common “bass bump” that characterizes most in-wall speakers and is 
placed there to yield the impression of “more bass” than there really is. This makes 
it easy to blend seamlessly with a high-quality subwoofer such as one of Wisdom 
Audio’s Regenerative Transmission Line™ (RTL™) subwoofers.  

You should setup your surround processor speaker bass management to “Small” 
and or with an 80 Hz crossover to maximize the speaker’s output. Doing so 
ensures that all content below 80 Hz is directed to the subwoofer(s) for reproduction.
