Installing Your Speakers From The Rear Of The Bulkhead

A 13 Connect the speakers. Be sure the receiver or amplifier is turned OFF. If possible, disconnect the power source. Use the supplied silicone-filled wire nuts to secure the ends of each wire pair. Place the stripped end of the positive (+) right channel receiver wire together with the stripped end of the positive (+) right speaker wire. Place the wire nut over the ends of the wires and turn it in a clockwise direction. Turn it with firm pressure until it stops; there should be no uninsulated wire visible. Repeat this procedure for the remaining wire end.

Repeat the above procedure for the left speaker.

Check that all connections are made positive to positive (+ to +) and negative to negative (– to –). Tighten any loose connections before you plug in the receiver or amplifier and turn it on.

Note: Twisting the ends of the wires together is not necessary.

A 15

Tie a knot in each joined wire pair to protect the connection from being pulled apart.

Remove the perforated speaker cone shields from the enclosure cartons. Insert the tabs of the shields into the speaker ports. This helps protect the speaker cone from potential damage during the installation process.

Note: For added protection against water entering the bulkhead, you can apply a generic silicone sealant between the flange and the mounting surface.

A 16 Replace the enclosure behind the bulk head and place the mounting flange so that it interlocks with the enclosure and lines up with the drilled holes. Attach the flange to the mounting surface using six screws.

Next, install six screws through the flange into the matching holes in the enclosure.

Note: If you plan to use a screw gun to install the screws, you should first set the gun to its lowest torque setting (do not exceed 12 inch- pounds or 135.84 N-cm of torque). If the screw does not seat properly, finish installing the screw at the next highest torque setting, or by hand.
