SAFETY WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES These speakers are intended for indoor use only. Do not expose these speakers to water or moisture of any kind. If operating these speakers in a humid environment, ensure that no condensation occurs. Condensation could cause damage to the speaker cones and voice coils. Power off and unplug all Audio/Video components when making wired connections. Only apply power after all connections have been made.
INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing these In-Wall/In-Ceiling Speakers! In-wall/In-ceiling speakers are the ideal combination of sound quality and styling. Rather than cluttering the room with large box speakers trailing speaker wires, the speakers are virtually invisible, while filling the room with high fidelity audio.
PACKAGE CONTENTS Please take an inventory of the package contents to ensure you have all the items listed below. If anything is missing or damaged, please contact Monoprice Customer Service for a replacement.
SPEAKER BREAK-IN In the same way that a new car requires a break-in period before it can be safely operated at high engine RPMs, speakers require a break-in period before they can be safely operated at maximum volume levels. Proper break-in ensures that the moving parts of the speaker (the cone and cone suspension) are allowed to flex and soften, losing the initial stiffness and allowing the speaker to move through its full intended range.
stray wire strands shorting the connections, allow for use of heavier gauge speaker wire in most cases, and it is much easier to identify the polarity from a color coded ring on a plug then from a subtle marking along the length of a wire. Because the speaker wires will necessarily be run through your walls, you must use in-wall rated wire. This is required by fire safety codes and ensures that the wire jacket will not act as an accelerant in the event of a fire.
When you are ready to prepare your speaker wires, first separate about 4" of wire, then strip about 1/4" (6mm) insulation from the end and twist it to prevent stray strands. If you plan to use banana or pin plugs (highly recommended), install the plugs on the wire. PAINTING The grille and frame can be painted to match your walls, making the speaker even less noticeable. Perform the following steps to safely paint them without damaging the speaker. 1.
INSTALLATION Perform the following steps to install the speaker onto a wall composed of drywall. Note that the same procedures apply to ceiling installations. The speaker can be mounted to a surface that is between 3/8" and 1-1/4" thick, with at least 4" internal clearance. 1. Determine where you will be installing the speaker. Use a stud finder to ensure that there is sufficient space between the desired location and the adjacent studs. Be sure and check for horizontal framing members, as well.
. Once you know your installation location is clear, use a drywall or keyhole saw to cut along the cut lines. 11. If you have not already done so, prepare your speaker wire in accordance with the guidelines in the Speaker Wire Preparation section above. Important! Because the speaker wire will necessarily be routed through your walls, you must use in-wall rated speaker wire. 12. Route your speaker wire from the back of your amplifier, through the wall, to the installation location. 13.
HIGH-FREQUENCY ROLL-OFF This speaker is equipped with a high-frequency roll-off option, which can be used to attenuate the high-frequency response. If the speaker sounds too "bright", perform the following steps to set the high-frequency roll-off. 1. Pull the edge of the grille to remove it. 2. Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, turn the high-frequency roll-off switch to the -3dB or -6dB position. The default is 0dB (no attenuation). 3. Replace the grille onto the speaker body.
