Painting the Speaker Frame and Grille

FM Series loudspeakers can be painted to match any style of decor. If you wish to change their color, the satin finish on the grille and frame will func- tion as a primer coat. Before painting install the paint guard (in the assembly kit) securely into the recess in the baffle.

This will protect the speaker components and baffle from paint residue.

Use a high-quality spray paint, and apply a thin coat of color.

Be certain the grille perfora- tions remain free of paint. Filling them with paint will diminish the sound quality.

Note: Gently remove the acoustical blanket from the back of the grille before paint- ing. Reattach the acoustical blanket after the paint has dried.
