Painting the speakers
While the speaker and grille can be painted after it is
installed, painting it beforehand is much easier.
It is recommended to use spray paint, as brushed paint
may clog the holes in the grille and reduce the sound
quality significantly.
1 Remove the fabric scrim from the inside of the
grille.
Carefully peel off the fabric scrim and lay it down flat so
as not to get it wrinkled.
2 Use the supplied paint mask to cover the speaker.
If you don’t have the paint mask, use paper and masking
tape.
3 Paint the speaker and grille the desired color.
As previously mentioned, it is strongly recommended
that you paint before installation and that you use spray
paint.
4 After the speaker and grille have dried completely,
remove the paint mask and carefully replace the fabric
scrim on the back of the grille.
Before installing
• Before installing the speakers, run the speaker
cables to the installation location.
• To maximize sound quality, choose the correct
speaker gauge cables from the table below.
If the resistance of the speaker cable is too high, the
signal will be attenuated and the speakers’ frequency
response will be degraded.
How to install
Make sure you have read and understood all the
information above, For the installer on page 3 and Before
installing above.
1 Once you have decided on the installation location,
prepare the supplied template.
Cut out the inside of the template along the dotted line
and discard the inner section.
2 Attach the template (outer section) to the wall/
ceiling using tape.
Make sure the template is aligned properly.
3 Trace a line onto the wall/ceiling, following the
inner perimeter of the template.
4 Cut a hole where you have drawn the outline.
Be careful when cutting the hole, and use a proper
cutting tool.
5 Pull the speaker cable through the hole that has
been opened.
Be careful not to apply to much force when pulling on the
speaker cable or bend the cable at sharp angles.
6 Connect the cable wire to the speaker as shown
below.
When connecting the speakers, be careful not to touch
the diaphragms of the drivers.
