Cut the appropriate size opening in the wall using the cutout template
provided. Be careful not to cut through any existing wiring or plumbing.
Note: Avoid compromising any fire stops between studs.
Run wiring to the wall opening(s). Be sure to comply with any codes that
may apply in your area.
Attach the wire from your amplifier to the terminals on the back of the
speaker. Double check the polarity of the speaker wires, amp to
s and amplifier - to speaker - proper polarity is critical in home
theater installation.
Insert the frame into the wall opening and attach to the mounting surface
by tightening the screws to engage the swinging “dog” connectors.
. The frame's mounting dogs will “sandwich” the wall and
frame together. The module is installed with the screws and the grille is
pressed into place.
PAINTING THE SPEAKERS AND GRILLES
Speaker baffle and grilles can be painted before installation, which will
eliminate the “paint scar” if the speaker needs to be removed for service.
Speakers may also be painted after installation, but before the grilles are
attached. All speakers come from the factory with paint mask included. Use
the paint mask to protect the drivers while the flange is being painted with
the wall.
Rave Technology suggests always painting the grilles separate from
the speaker. The grilles may be lightly sprayed with thin paint (5 parts
thinning agent to 1 part paint), but be careful not to plug the holes. Too
much paint will adversely affect the sound of the speaker.
Once the grilles and baffle are painted and dry, remove the paint mask from
the baffle and install the grilles.
Install the module and press the grille in place. Start the insertion of the
grill on one edge and slowly work your fingers around the grille edges.
Make sure all edges are in the groove before you apply pressure. Do not
push hard. If the grille is not going in, this means not all edges are in the
groove. Ease off grille and start over
