- Separate the speakers 6 - 10 feet apart.
NOTE: This is the most important part of the entire installation.
If you are not certain whether any obstructions exist behind the
desired mounting area, you should start by cutting a small hole in
the center of your penciled mounting hole with a drywall saw.
Using the Cut Out dimensions measure and trace a template on the
wall in the desired location. Cut along the traced line using a drywall
saw or rotary drill. Use a piece of sandpaper to sand down the cut out
edge for a smoother contour. (See Diagram 2.)
There are many options for proper speaker placement depending
upon speaker type and application. It’s important to carefully plan the
placement of your speakers, as installation requires that you cut a
hole in your wall or ceiling.
(See Diagram 1.) Typical speaker placement for a 5.1 and 7.1
speaker system.
Tighten the mounting brackets by simply turning the screws on
the front of the speaker baffle slowly clockwise. The quick-turn
mounting system and frame will “sandwich” or clamp around the
dry-wall to hold the speaker securely in place once fully tightened
to the locked position. (See Diagram 3.)
When connecting any speakers to the amplifier or receiver, always
make sure the power is off. Locate the connection terminals
on the back of your receiver or amplifier. Always make sure to
connect audio out from the back of your receiver or amplifier to the
speakers. (See Diagram 4.)
NOTE: Not all Amplifier/Receivers can safely play more than one
pair of speakers at once. Please refer to your owner’s manual for
impedance and wattage compatibility.
On select models a front mounted 3 position ±3dB treble & or
bass contour switch can be used to tailor high frequencies
according to speaker placement or the listeners preference.
(See Diagram 5.)
Your Black series speaker comes from the factory with the
tweeter centered in the neutral position. This will provide the
smoothest response. However, select models come with a
pivoting tweeter so you can focus the sound directly towards the
listening area if needed. In order to do this, carefully press on the
edge of the tweeter baffle in the direction you wish to focus the
sound. (See Diagram 6.)
CAUTION: When adjusting the pivoting tweeter be sure not to
touch the dome as you may cause damage to the speaker.
