Installation Tools needed for installation - Pencil - Drill - Tape Measure - Wire cutter - Philips-head screwdriver - Sandpaper Quick installation guide - Where is the best place to install the speakers - Where do the speakers sound the best - Try to separate the speakers 6-10 feet apart. - When placing the speakers in the wall, try to locate them so that the sound is projected towards the general listening area. - If you intend to paint the grilles, try to do so before installation. STEP 1 Trace along the inclusive template. Cut along the traced line using a drywall saw or rotary drill. A simple, inexpensive drywall saw (about $10 at your local hardware store) is the best choice for beginners. Caution: This is the most important part of the entire installation. If you are not certain whether any obstructions exist behind the desired mounting area, you should start by cutting a small hole in the center of your penciled mounting hole with a drywall saw. Use a piece of sandpaper to sand down the cut out edge for a smoother contour. (See Diagram 1 and Diagram 2) STEP 2 ---------------- -------------- - - Utility knife - Safety eyewear - Gloves Diagram 1: Cutout tracing Run the cable into the cut out location while leaving an extra two feet to make the connection to the speaker easier. Strip back approximately ½ of the speaker cable insulation and twist the copper wires tightly for easy insertion. Speaker wire To determine the length and the gauge of speaker wire, you will need to measure the distance between your receiver/amplifier and the speakers. - Measure the distance from the receiver/amplifier to the speakers. - Always buy more than you think you would need. - Equal wire lengths should always be used to maintain an equal balance in sound volume. - Sound quality is lost when using thin wire gauge over a long distance. 18AWG minimum - for distances up to.. 10 ft 16AWG - from. 10 to 50 ft 14AWG - from 50 to 100ft STEP 3 Tighten the dog-ear brackets by simply turning the screws on the slowly clockwise. The quick-turn mounting system and frame will "sandwich" or clamp around the wall to hold the speaker securely in place. (See Diagram 3) Diagram 3: Mounting Dog Ear Loose Closed STEP 4........ dog ear Loose...... Closed Tighten the four mounting screws with the same amount of force until the speaker is aligned and held securely to the wall surface. Caution: do not over tighten! (See Diagram 4) On the back of the speaker, press down on the gold-plated compression terminal to reveal the "eye" and insert the speaker cable through the eye for secure connection. Release the compression terminal to lock each cable securely. ---------------- Diagram 2: Cut Out Diagram 4:
- - Next, individually turn each of the screws (Diagram 5) that operate the dogears counter clockwise a few turns until you feel the dogear is loose from the resting position. Then turn the scew clockwise until you feel the dogear makes contact with the wall surface. Diagram 5: comparable to the speaker s power handling. Please refer to your owner s manual for reference. TIP: Blown-in insulation can sometimes work its way into the moving components of the speaker and negatively impacting performance. It is best to replace about a one square foot section directly behind the speaker with rolled-in (bat) insulation. (See Diagram 5) (See Diagram 7) Diagram 7: Subwoofer Amplifier Diagram 6: Terminal identification Note: The speakers wire should be about the same lenght. if excess wire behind the wall Note: Speaker terminals have corresponding () and (-) terminals. It is important to connect both speakers in phase. Out of phase will result in thin sound and weak bass.
