return for repairs, you must email customer service at [e-mail] for a Returned Merchandise
Authorization (RMA) number# then the unit must be shipped to OSD at the owner's expense, along with
a note explaining the nature of service required. Be sure to pack the speaker(s) in a corrugated container
with at least 3 inches of resilient material to protect the unit from damage in transit.
This Warranty Does Not Cover:
Damage caused by abuse, accident, misuse, negligence, or improper operation (installation) • Any
products that have been altered or modified • Any product whose identifying number of decal,
serial #, etc. has been altered, defaced or removed • Normal wear and maintenance.
Step 1
Evaluate the location of the speakers.
Project the length of speaker wire you
will run.
Note: when purchasing additional direct
burial speaker wire, make sure the wire
gauge is consistent.
Omni speakers reproduce sound in a full
360 degree and a few speakers will cover
a large area with sound if properly placed
Step 2
Once you have decided on the locations
for your in ground speakers, dig a trench
about 5” leading from the speakers to the
input source for the speaker cables.
For the OS850 omni speaker, dig a trench
hole approximately 16” in diameter and
10” deep for the speaker enclosure.
Step 3
Place the omni speaker in the hole you
have dugged. Run the direct burial wire
through the trench to the location of the
amplifier or receiver.
Please note: When connecting the
additional wire be sure to use water tight
wire connectors.
Step 4
Connect the wires from the omni
speakers to the amplifier or receiver.
Please make sure the polarity on the
cables and the speakers are in sync.
Optional: Using an outdoor volume
control makes it convienet for you to
adjust the volume outside.
Step 6
Turn on your amplifier or receiver to test
the speakers. If the speakers sound fine,
refill the wire trench and cover the
submerged part of the speaker.
