Thank you for purchasing the Imãge Series In-Wall Speaker systems, one of
Earthquake's most valued in-wall speaker lines. With the proper installation and
operation, the Imãge speakers will provide a lifetime of durability and high-end
performance.
It is very important to follow all installation/mounting instructions and recommendations
in this manual closely and carefully to insure optimal performance operation and
longevity.
Features:
- Elaborate crossover networks with
±
3dB tonal adjustments
- High quality capacitors and no distortion steel core inductors
- Easy Turn-N-Lock™ installation mechanisms
- 1” (25mm) silk dome NEO swiveling tweeters
- Low mass woven poly fiber woofer cones with extra wide rubber surrounds

Painting Guidelines:
The Imãge speakers are paintable and can accept virtually any type of paint. Spray and
roller paint applications typically provide the best results. When you are ready to begin
painting, remember to shield the driver and tweeter from the paint. Also, be sure to
remove the inner grille cloth prior to painting and replace it once the paint has
completely dried.
Speaker Placement:
The Imãge speakers are designed to be flush mounted in the walls or ceilings. To
optimize their acoustics you should follow these simple guidelines:
For best stereo reproduction the speakers should be placed an equal distance from
your listening position and separated so that the angle between them is between 40
and sixty degrees. The units should be placed with the tweeters near the ear level of
the seated listener.
