IMPORTANT! Installation Precautions
Due to the nature of this product, there are several precautions to follow
before installation can begin.
-
Allow sufficient clearance between the speaker and any insulation that may be in the wall cavity to avoid ignition should overheating occur.
1″ (26mm) for Non-Flammable Materials 3″ (78mm) for Flammable Materials -
Ensure that all wire run inside of walls and ceiling meets or exceeds local fire codes for hidden wiring.
-
Determine wire lengths and select the proper gauge speaker wire to use based on the table under Wire Gauge by Distance.
-
Do NOT overtighten the dog legs when securing the speaker to surfaces as this may cause the speaker to come loose. If using a power screwdriver set it to the lowest settings.
-
Do NOT connect the speakers to an amplifier rated above the recommended amplifier power. Overdriving the speaker can cause an overheating condition increasing the risk of injury.
-
Do NOT connect the amplifier end of the wire until all speakers are wired and installed.
-
Determine and purchase any accessories such as preconstruction brackets before beginning the installation process. Refer to Associated Accessories for a list of available brackets.
-
Ensure that wall and ceiling board material is between ½” (13mm) and 2″ (51mm) thick and capable of supporting the weight of the speaker.
