" Make sure the material into which you plan to
mount
the speakers
(plaster, drywall, paneling, stone, etc.) can support the weight of
the speakers
(see
specification page
for
the weight of your model).
" Make sure the locations you select do not conceal studs, electrical
wiring or plumbing. Prior
to
installation, hold the speaker with
grille
on
in your chosen location to make sure it safely clears
obstacles such
as
studs, comers, beams, lighting fixtures and
door/window frames.
Your
cutout must be at least
2"
(SO
mm)
from adjoining walls or ceiling, internal studs or plumbing.
" Using
the
supplied template, trace the installation location with a
pencil.
You
can do this by holding the template in your preferred
location
and
tracing around it.
Use
a bubble level to square
and
level the template. [figure

" Carefully cut the hole with the appropriate cutting tool
for
your
wallar
ceiling material. Start the hole by drilling a hole
on
the
inside of the tracing (with the drill bit just inside
the
line).
Use
this hole to insert the saw or knife and begin cutting [figure
9].
" Once you have cut the hole, pull the speaker wire out of the hole
and connect the speaker. Strip
'/z"
(12 mm) of insulation from each
of the two conductors of the wire to expose the bare metal and
twist each of the conductors into a single unfrayed strand. Note
that
one of the terminals
on
the rear of each speaker
is
marked red
(+)
and
the other black
(-).
Make certain that you connect the wire
from the red terminal
(+)
of your amplifier or receiver to the red
terminal
(+)
on
your speaker and the wire from the black terminal
(-)
of your amplifier or receiver
to
the black terminal
(-)
on
your
speaker. Most wire has some indicator (such
as
color-coding,
ribbing or writing)
on
one of the two conductors to help you
maintain consistency [figure
