7. The speaker has black and red
spring-loaded connectors attached
to the Rear Wave Control enclosure
(Figure 3). Black is for the negative
(
–) wire and red for the positive (
+
). It
is important to observe correct wiring
polarity. This is especially important
for the Stereo Input (SI) Loudspeaker.
If you have wire other than black and
red, make sure you connect it the same
on the amplifier end as the speaker
end. Failure to do so will adversely
affect the loudspeakers’ performance.
Supports are provided to secure the
speaker wire with wire ties.
8. A safety wire anchor is provided on
the Rear Wave Control enclosure
should you be required to secure the
loudspeaker assembly to a roof beam
or rafter (Figure 4).
9. Once the speaker wires and safety
wire are connected, carefully slide the
loudspeaker with attached Rear Wave
Control enclosure into the opening hole
(Figure 5). While holding the speaker
in place, tighten the mounting
screws to secure the speaker to
the drywall. We recommend
using a motorized screwdriver.
Be careful not to over tighten.
ICS loudspeakers feature spring
loaded mounting clamps that
allow the speaker to remain
flush with the ceiling, even if the
drywall shifts or expands.
NOTE: DO NOT CARRY THE SPEAKER
BY THE TWEETER OR TWEETER BRIDGE.
THIS MAY DAMAGE THE SPEAKER.
