Before Installation
1. Determine the location for the speaker.
2. Perform an obstruction survey using a stud nder to be
certain that there are no obstructions.
3. Position the included cutout template where the speaker is
to be located and pencil an outline on the wall. The cut-out
for the R1 and R1CSUR are 7 1/2” x 20 1/2” (191mm x
521mm). The cut-out for the R2 and R2CSUR are
7 1/2” x 33 1/2” (191mm x 851mm).
4. Cut the mounting hole using a keyhole or drywall saw and
run the speaker wires from the mounting hole to the
amplier location.
NOTE: CONSULT LOCAL BUILDING CODES BEFORE RUNNING
SPEAKER WIRES THROUGH WALLS.
Installation
Reference Series speakers feature an integral RotoLock
®
mounting system for quick installation.
1. Strip 1/4” – 1/2” (6mm – 12mm) of insulation from each
speaker lead.
2. Twist the strands or tin the exposed wire with solder to
ensure that there are no stray strands.
NOTE: STRAY STRANDS THAT TOUCH EACH OTHER CAN CAUSE
A SHORT-CIRCUIT THAT CAN DAMAGE THE AMPLIFIER/RECEIVER.
4. The speaker’s positive spring terminal is labeled with a red
dot; the negative spring terminal is labeled with a black dot.
5. Make sure all the RotoLock
®
toggle feet are retracted so
that they are tucked within the speaker frame. Insert the
speaker into the hole in the wall (see Figure 2).

The RotoLock
®
toggle feet will automatically rotate into
position and begin clamping the speaker (see Figure 4).
When you notice resistance on the screws the speaker has
been clamped successfully.

®
SYSTEM CAN ACCOMMODATE A WALL
MATERIAL THICKNESS OF 1 1/4” (32MM). WITH THE TOGGLE
FOOT CAP REMOVED, THE SYSTEM CAN ACCOMMODATE A WALL

8. The micro-trim grille is held in place by several small,
powerful magnets on the speaker frame. Carefully place the
grille against the speaker and the magnets will hold it rmly
in place. When properly installed, the grille trim should make
contact with the wall all the way around the speaker.
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS USE LOW-TORQUE SETTINGS; NEVER OVER
TIGHTEN. NOTE: ADJUSTING THE TENSION OF THE ROTOLOCK
®
CLAMPS SO THAT THE SPEAKER FRAME IS FLAT WILL HELP
ENSURE THAT THE GRILLE CONTACTS THE WALL ALL THE WAY
AROUND THE SPEAKER FOR A PROPER FIT.
6. When installing into double drywall or other thicker wall
materials, you may need to remove part of the two-piece
toggle feet. Use a small screwdriver to gently release the
two locking levers (Figure 3).
