Installation of Round Ceiling Speakers
1. Check ceiling area for concealed obstructions such as wiring, plumbing, heating ducts, etc.
2. Use a "stud finder" to locate positions of joists or rafters. Make sure that your intended locations for your
speakers is unobstructed and that the hole will be at least 1 inch away from joists or rafters.
3. Use the supplied compass or cut-out template/paint mask to draw a circle with the diameter that corresponds
to the model of your speaker on the chart below, and carefully cut out the hole.
4. Remove the grille from the speaker assembly using the included grille remover tool.
5. Before installation, turn the "Angle Lug Installation Clamps" (Item A) so they are positioned as in image be-
low. This way, they will clear the cut out hole for installation.

6. Prior to inserting the speaker assembly into the cut-out hole, attach speaker wires. Make sure to observe po-
larity (the "+" and the "-"). Speakers wired out of phase will exhibit an apparent loss of bass response. The
wires will be held in place by the "Spring Clip Terminals" (Item B). Wires should be stripped about 1/2
7. Insert the speaker assembly into the hole and begin to tighten installation screws. As you start to turn each
screw, the "Angle Lug Clamps" will rotate outward to engage ceiling material (Item C). CAUTION: DO NOT
OVER-TIGHTEN THE CLAMPS. Too much torque may snap off the lug, causing the speaker not to seat
securely. A snug fit is all that is necessary to assure proper performance.
8. If speaker assemblies are to be painted, either before or after installation, use the paint masking template
(cardboard disc) to cover the speaker driver(s) to prevent damage. DO NOT TRY TO PAINT THE GRILLE
AND FRAME ASSEMBLY TOGETHER. The grille should always be painted separately. Use thin coats
taking care not to block perforations with excessive paint.
9. If your speaker includes an "eyeball" type tweeter it may be aimed to achieve better imaging. Tweeter output
should be directed toward the typical listening position. USE CARE TO AVOID DAMAGING THE DOME OF
THE TWEETER DURING AIMING!!
