installation preparation
Use the supplied template to outline the mounting hole. Cut the mounting hole and remove any debris from the area. Take the necessary steps to keep debris from falling into the back of the speaker.
Route the wires from the amplifier to the speaker installation location. Strip about 1/2" of the insulation from the wire conductors. Twist the wire strands of the conductors into neat bundles. Insert the wires into the provided gold spring connectors to secure the wires.
final installation
The speaker is held in place with four mounting clamps that are part of the assembly. When shipped from the factory the clamps are pivoted so they will fit into the mounting hole. When the mounting hole clamp screws are turned, the clamps pivot outward and are then drawn downward until they press against the back of the mounting surface.
Insert the speaker/mounting bezel assembly into the mounting hole. Hold the speaker in place in the mounting hole and evenly tighten the four mounting screws to draw the mounting brackets against the backside of the wall. Gradually tighten the screws, moving from one to another, until the speaker is firmly clamped in place.
custom painting
•Paint the speaker frame and grill before mounting to the wall; paint grill and frame separately.
•Before painting, mask the recessed area of the speaker to completely protect the speaker drivers.
•After painting the grill, gently blow through its perforated holes to prevent paint clogging.
operation
checking the system
Listen carefully to each speaker. If you hear buzzing or rattling noises, remove the speaker and check for a speaker wire or other objects touching the speaker assembly. Adjust the tweeter level and aim the tweeter for the desired effect. When you are satisfied with the installation press the grills into place.
tweeter protector
If a speaker sounds "dull", or "lacks "brilliance", you may have activated the tweeter protector. If high power operation causes the tweeter to stop playing, turn down the volume control until normal sound resumes.
