WIRING

Please use Diagram 1 below to familiarize yourself with the rear panel of your outdoor speaker.
Attach the speaker cable, observing the proper polarity with your amplifier, + to + (red) and – to – (black). Either channel may be attached to either terminal set, however, be sure that polarity (+ and –) is correct on each channel or the performance of the speaker will be seriously affected as one channel will cancel out the other.

PLACEMENT

Placement Under Eaves and Outdoors
When mounting your speakers outdoors, the eaves of the roof provide an ideal location. They reduce the exposure to constant direct sunlight, salt spray, and precipitation. If installing speakers on a boat, the wheelhouse provides the best location for the same reasons.
Following these suggestions will help to ensure that your speakers will last a lifetime.

Placement on a Wall or Bookshelf
When placing your speakers on a wall or bookshelf, the optimal sound will be achieved if they are mounted at ear level or slightly higher. The usual listening area should be no closer to the speakers than the distance between the speakers themselves.

ADJUSTING THE PIVOTING TWEETERS

Depending upon your listening area, you may find the sound more pleasing by pointing the tweeters in a particular direction.
If additional treble is desired, simply point the tweeters towards that area; if less treble is required, point the tweeters away.

LIMITED TEN-YEAR WARRANTY

Proficient Audio Systems (“Proficient”) warrants to the original retail purchaser only (“you”) that this product will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of ten years (the “Warranty Period”), subject to the limitations and exclusions set out in this Limited Warranty. This warranty is not transferable to subsequent owners of the product. If you discover a defect in material or workmanship within the Warranty Period, you can obtain warranty service by contacting Proficient during the Warranty Period at 800.472.5555 or techsupport@proficientaudio.com or by contacting the dealer from whom you purchased the product. Defective products must be shipped, prepaid, and insured, together with proof of purchase. Warranty service requests made without proof of date of purchase will be denied. Freight collection shipments will be refused. It is preferable to ship this product in the original shipping container to lessen the chance of transit damage. In any case, the risk of loss or damage in transit is to be borne by the purchaser.
If upon examination by Proficient or its authorized dealer, it is determined that the unit is in fact defective, Proficient will, at its option:

  • Repair or replace the product at no additional charge; or
  • If the model is no longer available and can not be repaired effectively, replace the unit with a current model of equal or greater value. In some cases where a new model is substituted, a modification to the mounting surface may be required. If mounting surface modification is required, Proficient assumes no responsibility or liability for such modification.

Proficient will bear the cost of returning the repaired or replaced product to you, freight prepaid. All replaced parts and products become the property of Proficient Audio Systems. The foregoing is your sole and exclusive remedy for breach of warranty. If the product is not found to be defective, Proficient will contact you to arrange for the return of the product to you, at your expense.

EXCLUSIONS:

  • This Warranty does not include service or parts to repair damage caused by accident, disaster, misuse, abuse, negligence, inadequate packing or shipping procedures, commercial use, voltage inputs in excess of the rated maximum of the unit, or service, repair, or modification of the product by unauthorized dealers. This Warranty also excludes normal cosmetic deterioration caused by environmental conditions.
  • This Warranty will be void if:
  • the Serial Number on the product has been removed, tampered with, or defaced.
  • the product was not purchased from an authorized dealer.

THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESSED AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES. PROFICIENT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL SUCH OTHER WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
In no event will Proficient be liable for any incidental or consequential damages arising out of the use or inability to use the product, even if Proficient has been advised of the possibility of such damages, or for any claim by any other party. Notwithstanding the above, if you qualify as a “consumer” under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, then you may be entitled to any implied warranties allowed by law for the Warranty Period. Further, some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied Limited Warranty lasts or allow the exclusion or limitation of consequential damages, so such limitations may not apply to you.

ATTENTION TO OUR VALUED CONSUMERS:
To ensure that consumers obtain quality pre-sale and after-sale support and service, Proficient products are sold exclusively through Authorized Installing Dealers and Authorized Internet Sellers. Please be advised that Proficient warranties are void if the product is purchased from an Unauthorized Internet Seller.
