DOCUMENTATION CONVENTIONS This document contains general safety, installation and operation instructions for the Revel® C283, C263, C283LP, C263LP in-ceiling loudspeakers. It is important to read this document before attempting to use this product. Pay particular attention to: WARNING: Calls attention to a procedure, practice, condition or the like that, if not correctly performed or adhered to, could result in injury or death.
LOUDSPEAKER PLACEMENT FOR DISTRIBUTED SOUND s Since distributed sound is general sound throughout an area, place the loudspeakers as uniformly as possible for even sound coverage throughout the area. s Place the left and right loudspeakers roughly the same distance from the primary listener locations. s To avoid “hot spots” where the sound is too loud, plan to use more loudspeakers, with each set to play at a lower volume.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CONNECTING TO THE AMPLIFIER CAUTION: Do not use the tweeter-mounting baffle as a handle to move, carry or position the speaker. Doing so can damage the baffle. Such damage is not covered by the speaker’s warranty. CAUTION: REMOVE POWER You must connect the speaker wires before the speaker is fully installed.
MOUNTING THE SPEAKERS For New Construction If you wish to pre-install a rough-in frame for the speakers before the drywall is installed in new construction, you will need to purchase the correct rough-in frame kit for your loudspeaker model from your authorized Revel dealer. Detailed mounting instructions are supplied with the rough-in kit. After the drywall is installed, follow the installation instructions in For Existing Construction, below. 4.

The speaker clamps will automatically rotate into position and begin clamping the speaker. s 7HEN YOU NOTICE RESISTANCE ON THE SCREWS THE SPEAKER HAS BEEN clamped successfully.
