Step 1
Evaluate the location of the speakers. Project the length of speaker wire you will run. Note: when purchasing additional direct burial speaker wire, make sure the wire gauge is consistent. Omni speakers reproduce sound in a full 360 degree and a few speakers will cover a large area with sound if properly placed and spread out.

Step 2
Once you have decided on the locations for your in-ground speakers, dig a trench about 5″ leading from the speakers to the input source for the speaker cables. For the FORZA850T Omni speaker, dig a trench hole approximately 16″ in diameter and 1 O” deep for the speaker enclosure.

Step 3
Place the Omni speaker in the hole you have dug. Run the direct burial wire through the trench to the loca­ notion of the amplifier or receiver. Please note: When connecting the additional wire be sure to use water-tight wire connectors.

Step 4
Use the Tap switch located on the speaker to select the appropriate setting best suited for your application.

Step 5
Connect the wires from the Omni speakers to the amplifier or receiver. Please make sure the polarity on the cables and the speakers are in sync. Optional: Using an outdoor volume control makes it convenient for you to adjust the volume outside..

Step 6
Turn on your amplifier or receiver to test the speakers. If the speakers sound fine, refill the wiring trench and cover the submerged part of the speaker.
