SPEAKER INSTALLATION

The unique integral six foot mounting system incorporated into each AccuFit IW7 speaker allows for a quick installation by following these easy steps:

1.Remove the grille. It may be necessary to push one or two of the mounting screws and its attached foot towards the baffle and against the inside surface of the grille to force the grille out of its retaining groove.

2.Attach the speaker cable observing the proper polarity with your amplifier: + (red speaker input) to + and (black speaker input) to . Make sure the left channel of the amplifier is connected to the left speaker, and the right channel is connected to the right speaker.

3.Make sure the mounting feet are turned inward to clear the opening, and insert the speaker into the wall. Position the speaker into the hole. NOTE: The flange of the speaker is designed to flex and conform to any small imperfections in the wall’s surface. Tighten the six screws on the front of the baffle only enough to make the flange become snug against the wall. As you tighten the screws, the feet will automatically flip into an outward position (Figure 3), thereby clamping the drywall between the feet and the flange.

CAUTION: Over tightening may warp the baffle, crack the ceiling, cause flange to distort, and make the grille difficult to install.

SPEAKER ADJUSTMENTS

Pivoting Tweeter Adjustment

Your AccuFit IW7 Series speakers come from the factory with the tweeter facing straight out from the baffle. This will result in the overall smoothest response. However, depending on your particular primary area, room acous- tics, or personal preference, you may find the sound more pleasing by point- ing the tweeters in a particular direction. If additional treble is desired in the primary listening area, point the tweeter towards that area; and if less treble is required, point the tweeter away. Push gently at the edge of the tweeter to point it in the desired direction. (Figure 4)

CAUTION: Avoid touching tweeter dome as damage WILL occur on metal dome tweeters (AccuFit IW7 Three).

Adjusting the Frequency Response (AccuFit IW7 Three)

The output of the tweeter on the AccuFit IW7 Three can be adjusted to suit any environment. In general, we recommend leaving all of the adjustments at the flat (0dB) setting. To determine which settings will be appropriate for your speakers, you may need to experiment until the desired sound is achieved. Use the chart to determine the result of the setting you select.

Selecting a Setting on AccuFit IW7 Three

To select a setting, simply use a finger to move the switch mounted on the inner side of the speaker to the desired setting (Figure 5).

Frequency Settings

When selected, the settings will have the following result:

-3dB:Reduces the loudness of the selected frequency

0dB: The selected frequency remains at neutral level

+3dB: Increases the loudness of the selected frequency

PAINTING THE SPEAKERS

If you plan to paint your speakers, we recommend that it be done prior to installation. If you plan to paint your speakers sometime in the future, it is best to remove them by simply reversing the steps for “SPEAKER INSTALLATION”. If it is necessary to paint the speakers while they are still in the wall, the paint masks provided in the carton must be installed in place of the grille while the flange is being painted with the ceiling. The grilles can also be painted, however, great care should be taken not to clog the holes, as this will greatly reduce the sound quality of the speakers. SpeakerCraft recommends only light spray painting using 5 parts thinning agent to 1 part paint. Do not paint the grilles while they are attached to the speaker. If it is necessary to paint the under grille material, follow the same procedure used to paint the grilles.
