SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Use Only As Directed • Observe all warnings on the speaker and in this manual. • Please check the speaker for damage before use. • Carefully consider the proper location before beginning the installation • Observe the correct polarity when connecting these speakers, according to the instructions in this manual. Location • Speakers should be mounted close to, or slightly above ear level whenever possible. • Allow at least 1.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT Once installed, In-Wall speakers are not easily repositioned or moved. Please take a bit of extra time to carefully consider the best speaker locations before you begin. Each room is unique, so decide what works best for you. As a general rule • Speakers should be mounted close to or above ear level whenever possible • Speakers should always be directed toward the primary listening position. • Speakers should be mounted at least two feet from the corners of the room or ceiling.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT - continued Set-up Diagram #2 – Rear Channel Left and Right Surround Speakers • The rear-channel speakers should be located behind the main listening position and above ear level, if possible. • These speakers can be either wall-mounted or ceiling mounted, depending on the specific requirements & limitations of your listening rooms design. • These speakers should be mounted so the tweeter is “aimed” directly at the main listening position.
INSTALLATION Hooking Up The Wires • For shorter distances up to 25 feet, 18 gauge speaker wire will be sufficient. For longer distances, 16 gauge speaker wire should be used. The speaker terminals will accommodate up to a 14-gauge speaker wire. Leave two feet of extra speaker wire at the speaker end to make installation easier. Do not use nails, staples or other metal objects to secure the speaker wire.
INSTALLATION - continued • Attach the speaker cables to the speaker terminals, observing the correct polarity • Remove the grille from the speaker frame. The grille is held on by magnetic attraction. To remove simply hold the edge of the grille and gently pull toward you. • With the grille removed, the speaker can be inserted into the mounting hole. First make sure all the tabs are rotated inwards and then connect the speaker wires.
