- 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.
IF THE SYSTEM PLAYS AT LOW VOLUMES BUT SHUTS OFF AS VOLUME IS INCREASED:
- Check all wires and connections between receiver/amplifier and speakers. Make sure all wires are connected. Make sure none of the speaker wires are frayed. cut, punctured or touching each other.

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.

FAQs
Can you mount Pyle PDIW87 in wall speakers in ceiling?****
In most cases, in-ceiling speakers may easily be mounted in a wall, and vice versa, and they will sound the same.
Should Pyle PDIW87 ceiling speakers be enclosed?****
Yes. The sound quality of your in-ceiling speakers will be diluted if a back box is not installed, and this will cause noise pollution in other rooms in your house.
How close can Pyle PDIW87 ceiling speakers be to the wall?****
As far apart as speakers on a typical sound system would be, speakers should be placed at least 18 inches from the wall.
How far from Pyle PDIW87 ceiling should speakers be mounted?****
The left and right speakers in the front should be separated by roughly the same amount as the surround speakers. We advise keeping in-wall and ceiling speakers at least 18 to 24 inches away from one another.
Are Pyle PDIW87 in wall speakers a fire hazard?****
It is not regarded as a fire hazard for fibreglass insulation to come into contact with our in-wall or in-ceiling speakers. To lessen the likelihood of unwelcome noise, it may still be a good idea to remove the speaker from the fibreglass insulation.
How do Pyle PDIW87 wall speakers work?****
In-wall speakers only affect the quality of the sound in one way: their restricted depth and width limit the cabinet’s volume to that which can be adjusted by adjusting the enclosure’s height. Even some in-wall speakers use “infinite baffle” designs, in which the wall acts as the speaker box.
Are Pyle PDIW87 in-wall or on wall speakers better?****
On-wall speakers are essentially quite identical to their in-wall counterparts, with a few minor exceptions. The biggest benefit of on-wall speakers is that they take up little room, making them the ideal option if you have space restrictions.
How long do Pyle PDIW87 in wall speakers last?****
High-quality speakers typically survive up to 40–50 years before displaying any indications of degradation, depending on the materials they are composed of and the climatic conditions where the equipment is utilised.
Where should Pyle PDIW87 wall mounted speakers be placed?****
Keep in mind that walls also reflect sound. At least two to three feet should separate speakers from the closest wall (especially if your speaker is in a corner). Many speakers have bass ports that face the back. A rear bass port that is too close to a wall will reflect sound waves, blurring time.
Do Pyle PDIW87 in wall speakers vibrate?****
Rigid aluminium frames are a feature of in-wall speakers that prevent reverberations from extending past the speaker. The diaphragm, which is the part of the speaker that does move, is positioned in the middle to further confine the vibrations. Therefore, there is no need to be concerned about drywall cracks.
Are Pyle PDIW87 in wall and in-ceiling speakers the same?****
Simply said, ceiling speakers are positioned down-firing from the ceiling above, whilst in- and on-wall speakers are mounted front-firing with the woofers pointing horizontally across the room.
Can Pyle PDIW87 in-wall speakers be used for Dolby Atmos?****
The majority of speaker manufacturers who produce high-quality in-room speakers also provide a solid selection of in-ceiling and in-wall speakers that acoustically complement their in-room speakers. These built-in speakers are frequently used as surround and Dolby Atmos height speakers.
Do I need to build a box for Pyle PDIW87 in wall speakers?****
In-wall and in-ceiling speakers often do not require the construction of boxes or the restriction of space. These speakers were created with the homes in America in mind.
