  • Page 4 Tech Tips: Pre-Wiring for New Construction 1. For best results, avoid running speaker wire near AC wire, as it may induce a 60Hz hum in the audio signal. It’s a good idea to run the speaker wire after the AC wiring has already been completed, so that you can route the speaker wire at least three feet away from the AC wiring.
  • Page 5 When installled, the frame will extend out about 1 inch beyond the perimeter of the cutout to hide minor imperfections in the cutout. 5. If the NHT in-wall loudspeaker assembly and grille are to be painted to match the room color, paint them now before installing the baffle (see “Painting”).
  • Page 6 If possible, use two layers of drywall for maximum rigidity. For an easier option, use NHT’s Acoustic Foam Insert Kit. The kit contains flame retardant, dense foam blocks that stiff- en the drywall and can be added after the drywall is up. See your NHT dealer for details.
  • Page 7 The spring loaded mounting clamps provide tension once installed. 7. Connect the speaker wire to the spring posts on the back of the baffle, making sure to observe correct polarity (see “Connections”).
  • Page 8 The NHT in-wall loudspeaker is compatible with virtually all quality amplifiers. Proper wiring of the speakers is essential to good sound. At a minimum, 16AWG 2-conductor speaker wire is recommended for runs of 10 feet or less, with heavier special purpose speaker cable used for longer runs.
