New Construction and Retrofit Installations

Note: A new construction rough-in kit and back box kit are optionally available from Atlantic Technology. Please refer to the instructions included in those kits for their use. If the rough in kit has been used please go directly to Step 2 below.

1Cut an appropriately sized opening in the ceiling material.Be sure that the ceiling material can support the weight of the speaker.Also be sure that the sides of the opening are at least 1 ½ inches away from any beams or joists within the cavity. If it is not, the rotating clamps will be restricted in their movement and may not clamp properly.

Figure 1

2Be sure that all foreign material in the ceiling is kept out of the speaker assembly,particularly the back of the woofer cone.There is a cloth shield on the rear of the woofer, but please use care anyway.

3Mount the white frame in the ceiling.Using the red arrows on the frame as a guide (see Figure 2), roughly orient the frame towards the listening area. This will assure that the woofer is aimed correctly at the listener. Remember: This is not critical.An approximate orientation is fine,since the 6 LCR’s tweeter—which can be precisely adjusted—carries most of the directional information.

4Tighten the mounting screws one at a time. As you tighten the screws, the clamps on the back of the assembly will turn and lower, grabbing the back of the ceiling and sandwiching the ceiling between themselves and the frame’s circular trim ring.

Figure 3

5Snug all four mounting screws in this manner.Be careful not to overtighten them.

6You may now install the grille into the frame by gently pushing it into the recess and paint the ceiling and the grill/frame assemblies at the same time to assure a neat, uniform appearance.

7(If you have painted the grill/frame assembly, remove the grille from the frame with a pick or awl.) Attach the previously installed audio feed wires to the speaker terminals.Simply remove 1/2 inch of insulation from the end of each input wire. Push down on the terminal connector and a large opening will appear in the shaft of the connector that is capable of holding up to 10 gauge wire. Insert the bare wire into the opening and release the terminal. Be sure to observe correct polarity, connecting the positive (+) leads to the red terminals and the negative (-) leads to the black terminals. Also be sure that no stray strands of wire touch across any terminals.

8Screw the black driver/crossover assembly into the white frame housing so the woofer points in the direction you selected. The screw bosses are “keyed” for easy attachment.

9IMPORTANT: After aiming the tweeter at the listening location, use the high frequency level adjustment, located on the tweeter assembly, to increase (+)or decrease (–) the level of high frequency sound produced by the tweeter. See Figure 6.
