PAINTING THE GRILLE AND FRAME

Each StageFront FX and LCR frame and grille may be painted without the need for primer. For best results when painting the grille, use a spray gun or airless sprayer, thin the paint to prevent clogging of the grille holes, and apply several light coats instead of one heavy one.

1.Install loudspeaker into wall.

2.Carefully peel adhesive-covering strips off of paint mask and align over magnets on loudspeaker baffle. Gently press into place.

3.Paint the frame of the loudspeaker.

4.Paint the grille separately from the loudspeaker frame.

5.Reinstall grille after paint dries on all surfaces and the paint mask has been removed.

CHECKING LOUDSPEAKER PHASE

Usually, the wire is marked for your convenience, but the marking can be done in the following different ways:

Stripe on one wire

Ribbed area you can feel on one conductor

Different colors of metal wire on each conductor

Fabric strand or string wound into one of the conductors (CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE)
