B. “Trim-out” steps:
1. After drywall and/or painting is complete, push the speaker wire
through hole, center template over hole, mark with a pencil and cut
out with a dry-wall knife.
2. Hold the speaker with one hand, (if speaker grill is off, pay careful
attention not
to push on the woofer’s cone, this can cause
permanent contortion of the voice coil, thus producing a
mechanical rubbing sound or speaker failure), push in the speaker
terminal connectors and insert wires; remove speaker grill. Be
sure to have the positive wire in the RED terminal and the negative
wire in the BLACK terminal.
NOTE: Wiring both speakers identically as the above instruction
states will yield speakers that are “in phase”. If one speaker is
wired opposite of the other, the speakers will be “out of phase”
with one another. If the speakers are “out of phase” the sound
might appear smeared (canned) and a significant loss of bass
might be noticeable due to phase cancellation. Make sure every
installed speaker is correctly phased.
3 Use one hand to push the speaker into the cut out (again, pay
careful attention not to push on the woofer’s cone, this can cause
permanent contortion of the voice coil, thus producing mechanical
rubbing sound or speaker failure) and the other to turn the screws
that engage the installation tabs (see Figure 5). Tighten the tabs in
a cross or X-pattern until “snug”. Be careful not to over tighten the
tabs or damage could result. The speaker should appear flush to
the surface.
NOTE: If using a cordless drill/screwdriver, it is suggested that
the screws be turned until almost tight, then finish tightening via
a hand screwdriver.
NOTE: A strip of grill adhesive is provided to more securely
attach the speaker grills on final installation. Simply insert several
short strips evenly around the grill slot prior to insalling the grill
cover.
