Sonance VP65 TL Painting The Grilles, Speaker Adjustments, Specifications, To Pivot the Tweeter

SONANCE VISUAL PERFORMANCE® 6” IN-WALL

NOTE: ADJUSTING THE TENSION OF THE ROTOLOCK CLAMPS SO THAT THE SPEAKER FRAME IS FLAT WILL HELP ENSURE THAT THE GRILLE CONTACTS THE WALL ALL THE WAY AROUND THE SPEAKER FOR A PROPER FIT.

6.The new micro flange grille is held in place by several small, powerful magnets on the speaker frame. Place the grille against the speaker and the magnets will hold it firmly in place. When properly installed, the grille flange should make contact with the wall all the way around the speaker.

Speaker Adjustments

Pivoting Tweeter

All Visual Performance Series 6” in-wall speakers have a pivot- ing tweeter that allows you to direct sound towards or away from the listening area, depending on how the speakers are being used:

•If you’re using the speakers in stereo or as the front left/center/ right speakers in a home theater, pivot the tweeter directly towards the listening area. This will help the sound from the speakers blend into a solid soundstage even if the speakers are widely separated.

•If you’re using the speakers as surround channel speakers in a home theater, you can create a more diffuse, spacious sur- round effect by pivoting the tweeter towards a wall or window, away from the listeners.
