IN-WALL SPEAKERS Installation and Instruction Manual
Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of RBH Sound in-wall speakers! Your speakers are the result of many years of research and development dedicated to producing high quality products for home audio and audio/video systems. This manual is designed to give you, the installer or owner, basic information as to the speaker’s installation and operation. We recommend you thoroughly read through the material contained in this manual before installing your speakers.
Room Setup Suggestions With nearly endless placement options, careful consideration for placement of in-wall speakers needs to be considered, as installation requires cutting a hole in your wall or ceiling! When using speakers in home theater applications follow the guidelines illustrated below. Swivel Tweeter Adjustment The swivel tweeter allows sound to be directed toward or away from the listening area depending on the application.
Speaker Installation RBH Sound in-wall speakers are designed on an infinite baffle configuration. This means an enclosure is not required for the speaker to perform properly. However, using an RBH Sound back box will most likely improve the tightness and control the bass response. RBH Sound in-wall speakers have also been designed to make installation as easy as possible. Upon opening the speaker boxes you will notice that the screws are pre-started into the dog legs or a pinch bracket.
Speaker Installation (continued) NOTE: The frame will overlap the cutting edge by about a 1/4 to 5/8-inch (depending on model) which will mask any minor cutting inaccuracies. 5. Confirm the speaker easily fits into the hole, without any gaps. Connecting the Speaker: 6. Pull the speaker wire out of the hole and connect the speaker. Split the two conductors of the speaker wire apart about 3-inches so they form a “Y”.
Speaker Accessories Rear Enclosure The rear enclosure is a rectangular pre or post construction acoustic foam box. The FB-W can be mounted in-between standard 2x4 stud-frame construction and enhances the sound quality of in-wall speakers. It also diminishes the sound from being transferred into rooms on the other side of the wall. For post-construction install simply fold lengthwise, push in hole and expand inside then tack to studs.
