INSTALLATION & OPERATION GUIDE

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

• If you desire music over a wide area, it is best to have a larger number of  speakers playing at low volume, rather than a few speakers playing at high volume. Keep this in mind when designing your system.
• Ideally, you should place the speakers as close to the primary listening area as possible. The perceived volume of the speaker decreases rapidly as it is moved further from the listener.

CONNECTING THE SPEAKER TO YOUR SYSTEM

1. The 4-pin Euroblock plug allows for speaker wire input as well as speaker wire output to easily daisy chain speakers in 70V applications.

2. Determine the locations for the speakers and estimate the length of the additional wire you will need for each speaker.

3. Connect the speaker wires from your amplifier to the ceiling speakers.
   IMPORTANT: Be sure not to let any stray “+” and “-” strands touch each other. Touching strands can cause a short circuit that could damage the amplifier.
   PLEASE NOTE:
   Confirm that you have connected the speaker “+” to the amplifier “+” and the speaker “-” to the amplifier “-”.

4. Turn your amplifier on and test the system with your favorite music.

IN-CEILING MOUNTING

PLEASE NOTE:
Before beginning installation, be sure to take precise measurements.

1. Select speaker location.

2. Run the speaker wire to the desired position.

3. Use the provided cut-out template to measure 6 1/4” diameter carefully and cut your hole in the ceiling in the desired position. If mounting into an acoustic tile ceiling, remove ceiling tile when attaching the speaker.

4. Unpack the speaker unit and remove the mounting ring.

5. Insert the speaker into the hole in the ceiling. Place the threaded mounting ring on the back of the speaker.

6. Rotate the mounting ring onto the ceiling speaker until it is tight.
   PLEASE NOTE:
   It is also recommended to attach the speaker unit using a safety cable. Check local safety code requirements. Cable and hardware not provided.

7. Run the speaker wire.

8. Connect the speaker wire to (+) and (-) inputs. Use the extra (+) and (-) for daisy-chaining.

9. Select the desired tap setting.

10. Your speaker should now be securely installed.

SPEAKER INSTALLATION

• Step 1: Put the mounting ring over the hole in the ceiling tile.
