Speaker Placement
Before installing your OWI speakers, consider the placement carefully, taking into effect the
location of electrical, plumbing and other fixtures.
Placement in Ceiling
OWI speakers should be located above the primary listening area.
Mounting your OWI speakers
Determine the best area to mount your OWI speakers. It will be necessary to run your speaker
wires to that location. This location must be free of obstructions, such as electrical conduits,
HVAC ducts, or water lines.
Be sure that there is at least a 5
inches clearance behind the mounting surface. Make sure
that no objects block the back of the speaker.
Remove the round cardboard disc from the template supplied and keep it for later use as a
paint mask, if you decide to paint your speakers.
Once you have determined there are no obstructions in your desired mounting location route
the speaker wires from your amplifier to your opening. Avoid routing the speaker wire near
electrical wires. If you have to run them parallel, make certain to space the speaker wires at
least 2 feet from the AC line. Do not nail or staple the speaker wire.
