VANCO W5VB-BSC 5.25 Inch On-Wall Indoor-Outdoor Speaker
Introduction
Congratulations and thank you for purchasing Beale Basics Series speakers from
Beale Street Audio! Beale Basics speakers install with ease for fast, clean
installations.
Please follow the instructions in this manual to assure proper installation
and to achieve the full performance and satisfaction you would expect from
Beale Street Audio.
Speaker Wire
For the W5VB-BSC, pull one run of 16-2 stranded speaker wire from the
amplifier location to each speaker location OR can pull one run of 16-2
stranded speaker wire to the FIRST speaker, can cascade out to the other
speakers running in parallel.
If in pre-wire, while the walls are open and it’s easy, pull extra wire to any
location that may be desirable to add speakers at a later date. Leave extra
length of wire on each end to allow making connections and installing/removing
speakers.
Installation
-
Use the bracket to find the appropriate mounting location and position
NOTE: Ensure the location is made of sufficient material to withstand the weight of the speaker. For example, wood/metal studs or other wood structures -
Fix the bracket to the wall
-
Attach the speaker to the bracket using the provided
Angled Mounting Bracket
The W5VB-BSC comes with an angled mounting bracket and screws to attach to the speaker. This allows the speaker to be angled as needed while being mounted and secured to a flat surface.
Tap Dial
The tap dial on the rear of the speaker allows for setting the wattage output of the speaker if using with a 70V/100V amplifier, or sets the speaker(s) up to be used with an 8ohm amplifier.
70V/100V Configuration
The total number of speakers multiplied by the tap value cannot exceed the
output power (in watts) of the 70V/100V amplifer. The example below shows 3
total speakers. Using the 10W taps, you will need an amplifer with at least
30W (3 speakers x 10W tap).
A good rule of thumb is to select an amplifer with 20% greater power; in this
case, an amplifer that delivers about 36W.
8ohm Connection
The speaker terminals on the speaker are red on one side and black on the other. Connect to the red terminal of the amplifier to the speaker (+), and connect the black terminal of the amplifier to the speaker (-). Connect each speaker to make sure there is not inverted polarity (+ goes to -). If the polarity of the speakers is reversed, the sound will be unnatural and will play without bass.

Limited Lifetime Warranty

Limited Warranty
Vanco warrants to you, the original consumer purchaser of speakers, that under proper use and conditions, and subject to the other conditions provided below, your speakers will be free from defective materials and workmanship for the life of the speakers. This warranty only applies to passive speakers. Active products, such as amplifiers, electronics, and powered subwoofers are not covered under the Lifetime Warranty. Please review the individual manual provided with each specific product for the warranty information.
What Vanco Will Do
If a speaker proves defective in either material or workmanship, Vanco, at its
option,
will either (a) repair and return it to you, or (b) replace and ship you a new
speaker of the same model, unless your model is no longer available, in which
case Vanco may replace your speaker with a current model of comparable value.
In either case, Vanco will pay the shipping charge of sending you (US only) a
replacement speaker or your repaired speaker. If a current model is
substituted for your speaker, a modification to the mounting surface may be
required. Vanco is not responsible or liable to make, account for or pay the
cost of any such modification.
How To Make A Warranty Claim
The first step in making a claim under this limited warranty is to contact the Vanco authorized distributor/dealer where you purchased the speaker, or if you are unable to contact the distributor/dealer, you can contact Vanco directly, for instructions on what action to take. If it is necessary to return the speaker, it must be shipped in appropriate packaging to the destination given to you, prepaid with signature required for delivery, and be accompanied by (1) a document providing your name, address, phone number and email address, and a statement of why you believe the speaker is defective, and (2) a copy of your original receipt or bill of sale that identifies you as the original purchaser of the speaker and the authorized distributor/dealer you purchased it from (“Proof of Purchase”). You have the risk of loss or damage in transit to the destination, and therefore you are responsible for insuring the shipment for the full value of the speaker. Freight collect shipments will be refused. If Vanco determines this limited warranty does not cover your claim, your speaker will be returned to you freight collect.
