    Storm Series In-wall Speakers 2. System Design/Applications ATON In-Wall speakers are designed primarily to be installed in wall composed of drywall, but it is possible to install them in other materials. Prior to installation, it is essential to determine the type of application, and, therefore, the placement of the speakers in the wall.
  • Page 5: Installation

    Look for routes through uncluttered parts of the stud wall or ceiling that allow you to group all low-voltage (video, speaker wires, Cat-5, telephone, etc.) wires wherever possible. It is a good practice to label both ends of all cables and to protect wires by tying a plastic bag over the ends.

  • Page 7 Storm Series In-wall Speakers • Five 2 conductor speaker wires run from the A/V Receiver to each surround sound speaker. Figure 3.5 - Wiring: Amplifi er to Speakers-Home Theater • One 4 conductor speaker wire runs from the A/V Receiver to the A82SW Passive Subwoofer then one 2 conductor speaker wire runs to each of two stereo speakers.
  • Page 8 Note 2: It is recommended that you use quality CL-2 or CL-3 rated stranded speaker wire when installing ATON speakers. Solid-core “Romex” type wire is not acceptable! Use at least 16AWG speaker wire for runs up to 100 feet, and at least 14 AWG speaker wire for runs up to 200 feet.
  • Page 9 In a pre-construction installation, walls and ceilings are open with no drywall installed. This is desirable and allows the installer much greater access than in retro-fi t applications. ATON model BK6W Rough-In Brackets are specifi cally designed to work with models A60W, A61W and A62W while model BK8W Rough-In Brackets are designed to work with A82W and A82SW speakers.
  • Page 10 Mounting Rough-In Brackets Once the mounting locations are decided upon, assemble the brackets and secure them to the ceiling joists using fl at-head screws or heavy-duty staples (see the ATON Ceiling/In-Wall Rough-In Brackets Manual for detailed steps). Retro-Fit Retro-fi t installations are more diffi cult to complete than pre-construction because walls and ceilings are intact.

    Setting Switches A62W/A82W TREBLE Switch Once the speakers are wired, mounted, and positioned correctly, use the TREBLE switch (if applicable) to fi ne-tune the speakers based on local environmental variables such as hardwood fl oors, thick draperies, etc. Select the “+” position to increase Treble response or select the “-” position if no increase is desired.
