  • Consider adding a powered subwoofer to your system.
  • In Dolby Digital Of DTS modes. make sure your receiver/processor is correctly configured. When using a subwoofer, make sure the subwoofer output of the receiver/ processor has been enabled. If no subwoofer is being used, make sure the left and nght front and rear speakers have been configured as “LARGE.” See your receiver/processor’s owner”s manual for futner information on correct speaker configuration in Dolby Digital, DTS and other surround sound modes.

IN-CEILING

Proper placement of the speakers is an important step in obtaining the most realistic soundstage possible. These recommendations are for the optimum placement of the loudspeakers. Use these placement recommendations as a guide. Slight variations will not diminish your listening pleasure. The front speakers should be placed the same distance from each’ other as they are from the listening position. They should be placed at about the same height from the floor as the listener’s ears will be, with the tweeters aimed toward the listener at ear-level height. In a home theater configuration, the two surround speakers should be placed slightly behind the listening position and ideally should face each other and be at a level higher than the listener’s ears. If that is not possible, they may be placed in a wall (or in the ceiling) behind the listening position, facing forward. The surround speakers should not call attention to themselves. They should provide a diffuse, ambient sound accompanying the main program material heard in the front speakers. In Dolby Digital and DTS systems, aim the tweeters toward the listening position at ear-level height.

SPEAKER CONNECTIONNS

CONNECTION TIPS

The wires for both speakers should be the same length. If one speaker is placed closer to the amplifier than the other, hide the excess wire behind the wall. Speakers and electronics terminals have corresponding (+) and (-) terminals. We use red to denote the (+) terminal and black for the (-) terminal. It is important to connect both speakers identically: (+) on the speaker to (+) on the amplifier and -) on the speaker to (-) on the amplifier. Wiring “out of phase” results in thin sound, weak bass and a poor stereo image. With the advent of multi-channel surround sound systems, connecting all of the speakers in your system with the correct polarity remains equally important in order to preserve the proper ambience and directionality of the program material.

EXISTING CONSTRUCTION

IN-CEILING SPEAKERS

  1. Cut the drywall.
    Note : Always allow at least one-half inch between a wall stud and the speaker cutout the locking tabs will not be able to swivel into place.

  2. Connect the speaker wires to the speaker.

  3. Place the frame assembly in the wall.Pyle-PDIC81RDBK-8-Inches-Ceiling-Wall-Mount-Speakers-fig-8

  4. Screw down each of the four Phillips head screws. The locking tabs will swivel into place and secure the unit to the rear surface of the drywall. Put in the strips of adhesive to secure the grille. The in-celing speakers feature unique swivel mounts for the tweeters that enable you to aim the very directional high frequencies toward the listening position, at ear-level height. Before installing the speaker grile, gently press on the outer edge of the tweeter mount to adjust the position of the tweeter. The tweeter will not swivel more than 15 degrees in any direction; do not attempt to force it to move further.

  5. Replace the metal grille.

  6. After installing the speaker grille, gently press on the mesh of the tweeter to adjust the position of the tweeter.
