Definitive Technology RSS II Gasket requirements and application, Connecting the speaker

•In-Ceiling installation, 90 degrees to joists spaced 16" on-center (or more)

–Place template at least 11/4" away from existing joists (to clear lock arms).

–Template dose not need to be centered between joists.

–Trace around template with pencil.

–Cut hole.

–Install framing material inside cavity, running 90° to existing joists, leaving 97/8" between frame sides.

See Diagram 5, page 12 for reference.

Gasket requirements and application

•There are two sizes of gasket strips included in the accessory pack with the owner’s manual.

–5 short gaskets.

–2 long gaskets.

•For ALL installations where cavity depth is 4" or less, the gaskets are to be applied as follows:

–3 SHORT gaskets are to be applied across the back of the wooden enclosure.

•For In-Ceiling and In-Wall installations where the side of the enclosure ends against a joist, stud or installed framing material:

–One SHORT gasket is to be applied to each side of the enclosure that will be against the framing material. The SHORT gasket is designed

to fit behind the bezel, between the lock arm openings.

–One LONG gasket is to be applied to each side of the enclosure that will be against the framing material.

Connecting the speaker

• Run color-coded wires between the speaker cavity and amplifier unit. When running the wires inside the ceiling to the opening, leave a minimum of 18" of additional length in the cavity to facilitate speaker connection.

• Fish wiring out of hole.

• Connect the speaker wires to the UIW RSS II taking care to make red to red (+) and black to black (-) terminal connections.

• Refer to your amplifier or receiver loudspeaker wiring instructions, turn off the unit and connect the speaker wires to the appropriate colored out- put terminal on the unit, again making red to red (+) and black to black (-) connections. This will ensure absolute phase throughout the system.
