TROUBLESHOOTING
A hum or buzzing sound is heard.
The sound may be caused by a ground loop in the system.
Try to eliminate this by reversing the AC plugs of other
components in the system.
Try plugging the amplifier into another outlet.
Other causes may include faulty cables.
No sound is heard.
Audio cable to the amplifier is not connected properly or the
cable is bad. Use another cable that you know is good.
Check all speaker wire connections and plugs.
Volume Limit on amp may be set too low.
The Problem
Possible Causes and Solutions
PAINTING THE GRILLE
We recommend painting your grille prior to installation. If you decide to paint it in the future, it's best to remove the grille by simply
detaching it from the speaker. Do not paint the grille while it's installed on the speaker.
Before painting, be sure to remove the cloth material from beneath the grille. Once painted, place the cloth back to its position beneath the
grille. When painting, be careful not to clog the holes of the grille. The sound of the speaker will be dramatically reduced if the perforations
in the grille are covered in paint.
Proficient recommends only light spray painting using five parts thinning agent to one part paint.
3. MOUNTING THE IWS85
The IWS85 has been specifically designed to mount to the drywall. Place the sub into the
drywall cut-out and position it. As you tighten the screws, the mounting feet turn and clamp
the sub to the drywall. See Diagram 2. CAUTION: Be careful not to overtighten the screws or
the baffle will warp, and the mounting feet may break off.
Once the sub is in place, you can gently reattach the grille onto the baffle. Due to the nature
of the system, the grille is designed to attach very tightly.
