1. The VPSQ Square Adapter slides on through
the rear of the round speaker prior to
installation.
2. Place speaker through the round ceiling cut-
out, loosely tighten the Roto-Lock toggle feet,
then align the Square Adapter on the speaker
to the correct symmetry.
3. Once the Square Adapter is straight in line
with other speakers, lighting, and/or HVAC
ceiling fixtures, secure the Roto-Lock toggle
feet at a low torque setting
4. Attach the magnetic grille.
NOTE: The Square Adapter includes small screw
holes that can be used to tighten the adapter to
keep the corners flush to the ceiling in case of
heavy textures.
Note: #6 drywall screws and drywall anchors not
included. Screws will not always be necessary for
every installation.
Square Adapter Instructions
10. Strip 1/4” – 1/2” (6mm – 12mm) of insulation from each speaker
lead. Twist the strands or tin the exposed wire with solder to ensure
that there are no stray strands.
I M P O R T A N T: ALWAYS USE LOW TORQUE SETTINGS; DO
NOT OVER TIGHTEN!
NOTE: Adjust the tension of the Roto-Lock clamps so that the speaker frame
is flat. This will help ensure the grille contacts the ceiling all the way around
the speaker for a proper fit.

Installation
12. Make sure all the Roto-Lock
toggle feet are retracted so that
they are tucked within the
mounting hole’s border.
13. Insert the speaker into the hole in
the ceiling.
14. Tighten the screws on the front of
the speaker baffle. The Roto-Lock
toggle feet will automatically
rotate into position and begin
clamping the speaker. When you
notice resistance on the screws the
speaker has been clamped
successfully.
NOTE: Stray strands that
touch each other can cause a
short-circuit that can damage
the amplifier!
11. The speaker’s terminals are spring-loaded. Push the top of each
terminal down to open the connector and insert the exposed wires
into the holes in the spring terminals. The speaker’s positive spring
terminal is labeled with a red dot; the negative spring terminal is
labeled with a black dot. Double check that you connected
amplifier “+” to speaker “+” and amplifier “–” to speaker “–”.

15. The micro-trim grille is held in place by several small, powerful
magnets on the speaker frame. Place the grille against the speaker
and the magnets will hold it firmly in place. When properly
installed, the grille trim should make contact with the wall all the
way around the speaker.
