DESCRIPTION
The THX In Wall Speaker Series is known for its high level of accuracy and its ability to faithfully recreate the music and soundtracks of the top home theaters. Each speaker has been given a THX certification, which guarantees a frequency response, dispersion, and distortion level that are all at their best. The THX accreditation guarantees that the sound coming out of the speaker is exactly how the audio engineer envisioned it. You have never before experienced home theater sound from an in-wall speaker that is as dynamic, detailed, or immersive as the sound produced by the THX-365IW. This is because the THX-365IW is equipped with premium drivers, is THX-certified, has an advanced crossover network, and is housed in an HDF cabinet.
PREMIUM DRIVERS
Woofers with a High Excursion. Silk Dome Midrange. Silk Dome Tweeter.
The THX-365IW has two 6.5″ drivers, both of which have been carefully chosen to ensure that they offer a frequency response that is flat within the listening window. Woofers, a 2″ silk dome midrange, and a 1° silk dome tweeter. The silk dome midrange functions in the region of 550 Hz to 19 kHz, and its operation improves power handling, reduces distortion, and enhances polar response, which enables the speaker to produce a greater SPL. The 6.5-inch high excursion woofer has been constructed with shorting rings and a long fiber pulp cone to reduce distortion to an acceptable level as much as possible. Because of the integrated driver design, each speaker is able to reach sonic heights and offer precise sound, which results in the highest home theater dynamics and detail possible.

CONNECTION
Follow these procedures to successfully connect the in-wall speaker model THX-365IW sold by Monoprice:
-
Get the presenter ready by:
Make sure that you have all of the components required for installation, such as speaker wire, a speaker mounting bracket (if one is required), and any equipment that may be required for the task. -
Figure out where the speaker is located:
Determine the location in the wall in which you intend to install the THX- 365IW in-wall speaker. It should be hung at the proper height and placed in an area that is complementary to your audio system. -
Make a hole for the speaker:
Find a place on the wall that will work well for mounting the speaker by using a stud finder and a pencil. Before moving further, make sure there aren’t any obstacles in the way, such as electrical lines or piping. Put a mark on the wall following the outline of the cutout template of the speaker. -
Remove the top layer:
Make cuts along the outlined area with a drywall saw or another appropriate cutting tool in a careful manner. Be very careful not to nick any of the current wiring or pipes that are located behind the wall. -
Install the speaker wire:
Make the connection between the terminals on the speaker and the speaker wire. In the event that your speaker is equipped with binding posts, you will need to loosen the posts, place the bare wire ends into the appropriate holes, and then screw the posts back into place to ensure a solid connection. If your speaker uses spring clips, you can establish a secure connection by inserting the wire into the clip and pushing it in. -
Install the speaker by:
If your THX-365IW speaker comes with a mounting bracket, you should use the screws that come with the bracket to attach it to the speaker.

Join the wires for the speakers:
Connect the opposite end of the speaker wire to the amplifier or audio source you are using. Remove the insulation from the wires so that the bare wire ends are exposed, and then connect the exposed wire ends to the proper terminals on your audio source or amplifier. Check to see that the polarity (+/-) is matched up correctly. -
It is necessary to repeat for any additional speakers:
If you are installing several THX-365IW speakers, you will need to repeat the instructions above for each speaker. While doing so, make sure that the speaker cables are connected correctly and that the correct polarity is maintained. -
