ALL WEATHER DESIGN

The OutBack Speakers from Russound have the features that a true outdoor speaker requires. From rain to snow, saltwater to the sun’s harmful UV rays, OutBack speakers are meant to be placed OutBack with the worst Mother Nature can dish out! Along with the gold-plated binding posts, solid brass and stain- less steel hardware and rust-proof aluminum grille the reso- nance-free, mineral filled composite cabinet can withstand extreme temperature fluctuations from –50F to 200F. OutBack speakers were created with harsh environments in mind.

CONNECTING YOUR SPEAKERS

The gold-plated binding posts on the OutBack speakers are color-coded for polarity; red is positive and black is negative. The binding posts are designed to accept either bare wire or "Banana Plugs." Turn off the amplifier prior to making connec- tions to avoid possible damage from accidental speaker wire shorting. Make sure that all connections are tight and there is no shorting of wires from one terminal to another. Check that the polarity is correct on both speakers, otherwise bass response and imaging will suffer from cancellation.

CONNECTING YOUR OB-SOLO

Attach each pair of wires to the red and black speaker ter- minals. Press down on the gold plated binding post and insert the wire into the hole. Release binding post. Make sure that no stray strands of wire have gotten detached and are touching the other main wire.

MOUNTING

DO NOT mount the speaker with the front facing up as water can directly enter the cabinet through the port opening.

Mounting Using Standard Bracket (included):

The OutBack speakers are equipped with mounting brackets that will allow either vertical or horizontal mounting. The brackets should be mounted using a level to assure correct positioning. Always make sure that the mounting surface and fasteners will support the speaker safely. Connect the speaker wiring to the speaker, assuring correct polarity. Secure the speaker to the bracket using the supplied knobs. Adjust the speaker for opti- mum sound. Hand-tighten the knobs only! Use of power tools can cause damage to the threaded inserts, causing them to break free of the cabinet.

Mounting Using Aftermarket Bracket:

Dual 1/4-20 brass inserts are for use with various aftermarket mounting systems. Follow directions included with aftermarket product.
