PAINTING THE SPEAKER FRAME AND GRILLE

SoundPoint Series loud- speakers can be painted to match any décor. If you wish to change their color, the satin finish on the grille and frame will function as a primer coat. Before painting, install the paint shield (inner section of template in the assembly kit) securely into the recess in the

baffle. This will protect the speaker components and baf- fle from paint residue. Use a high-quality spray paint, and apply a thin coat of color.

Be certain the grille perfora- tions remain free of paint. Filling them with paint will diminish the sound quality.

Note: Gently remove the acoustical foam blanket from the grille before painting. Reattach the blanket after the paint has dried.
