Placement Considerations
Speaker Placement
The ECS Edgeless In-Ceiling Speakers are designed to be flush mounted in
walls or ceilings. For optimal acoustical performance, simply follow these
guidelines:
1. Place speakers at an equal distance (left/right) from listener.
2. Speakers must be spaced at a 40 - 60° angle from listener (Figure 1).
3. Aim tweeter towards the listener's ear when in listening position.

Easy Installation Steps
1
Cut the hole:
using the provided
cut out template
2
Wire the speaker:
using the non-obtrusive
spring-loaded speaker
terminals
3
Mount the speaker:
by utilizing the
Turn-N-Lock™
installation mechanisms
Simply tighten the screws by hand using a
screwdriver to prevent the mounting ears
from snapping. Some resistance may occur
the first few turns of the screw as it makes its
path through the plastic.
Grille Painting Guidelines
The ECS Edgeless In-Ceilingl Speaker grilles are paintable and can accept
virtually any type of paint. We strongly recommend the following:
1. Remove the grilles from the speakers prior to painting them.
2. Thin the paint prior to application, if needed. Spray and roller paint
applications typically provide the best results. Note that you may need to
apply multiple thin layers of paint to achieve the desired shade without
losing sound quality due to clogging of the grilles.
3. Let the painted grilles fully dry before mounting them back on the
speakers.
