Remove the grille from the
speaker frame by pulling on the
paper tab. If the tab is missing,
to avoid scratching the grille or
baffle you may unfold a paper
clip, insert the straight end
through one of the holes in the
grille, and gently pull up.
Cut the drywall.
Screw down each of the four
Phillips head screws. The
locking tabs will swivel into
place and secure the unit to the
rear surface of the drywall.
Determine the correct speaker
location.
Note: Remove the inner tem-
plate, which is the paint shield,
at the perforation. Use the
outer template when cutting
the drywall.
Connect the speaker wires to
the speaker.
The SoundPoint speakers fea-
ture unique swivel mounts for
the tweeters that enable you to
aim the very directional high
frequencies toward the listen-
ing position, at ear-level height.
Before installing the speaker
grille, gently press on the outer
edge of the tweeter mount to
adjust the position of the
tweeter. The tweeter will not
swivel more than 15 degrees in
any direction; do not attempt to
force it to move further. You
may also rotate the tweeter to
orient the JBL logo as desired.
