Painting Guidelines:

SweetSpot in-ceiling speakers are paintable and can accept virtually any type of paint. Spray and roller pain applications typically provide the best results. Be sure to remove the inner grille cloth prior to painting. When you are ready to begin painting, remember to shield the driver and tweeter from the paint. Let the paint dries completely prior to replacing the inner grille cloth.

Speaker Placement:

SweetSpot in-ceiling speakers are designed to be flush mounted in the walls or ceilings. To optimize their acoustics, you should follow these simple guidelines:

For best stereo reproduction, the speakers should be placed at an equal distance from your listening position and separated so that the angle between them is between 40° and 60° (please refer to figure 1 on page 3). The units should be placed with the tweeters near the ear level of the seated listener, as illustrated in figure 2 on page 3.
