# Feature Function 1 Tap Selector Adjust each speaker to the appropriate tap setting: For 70V: 3.7W, 7.5W, 15W or 30W For 100V: 7.5W, 15W or 30W Or select 8 (to bypass the transformer when connecting directly to an amplifier without using the 70/100V array option), see Figure 4 2 Tweeters 2 pivoting tweeters, reproduce the higher frequency sounds 3 Woofer Driver Reproduces low frequencies 4 Speaker Grille Protects the internal components of the speaker from foreign objects.
4 Installing the Yarden 6-ID This section explains how to: 4.1 Choose the best location for your speakers (see Section 4.1) Cut the wall (see Section 4.2) Install the speaker wires (see Section 4.3) Mount onto the wall (see Section 4.4) Setup an array installation (see Section 4.5) Choosing the Best Location Before installing the speaker make sure that: The desired location is free of obstructions, such as electrical piping, AC ducts or water lines, and so on 4.
Figure 3: Yarden 6-ID Cut-out Template 4.3 Installing the Speaker Wires To install the speaker, do the following: 1. Prepare the wires for the speaker: Cut the wires to similar lengths For achieving high quality sound Measure the length from each speaker to the receiver, and cut the wires accordingly, adding some access wire length to let you easily remove the speakers from the bracket without having to disconnect the input wires 2.
Figure 4: Adjust Tap Selector Stereo Mode (see Figure 2) Mono Mode (see Figure 8) 5. Set the selector switch to STEREO. Set the selector switch to MONO. 6. Push the grille firmly in place. Push the grille firmly in place. 7.
4.4 Mount onto the Wall To mount the speaker to the wall: 1. Insert the speaker into the opening in the wall. 2. Tighten the mounting tabs (6) by turning the screws counter clockwise (see Figure 5). Turning one quarter of a circle rotates the tab outwards; after that the screw is turned to tighten the tabs to the rear side of the wall surface When tightening the mounting tabs, the tabs automatically turn outward, thus clamping the speaker to the wall from its rear side. i Do not over-tighten the screws.
Figure 6: Square Layout Figure 7: Hexagonal Layout You can set the power on each speaker to get the desired power level in different installation areas. i We recommend that you set the Mode switch to MONO for an array installation.
