Flange Installation:
1.
Choose the appropriate mounting
location for each speaker.
NOTE
When deciding upon a location, consider
the following:
• Be certain your speaker wires can be run to or
are accessible from these locations.
• Make certain the wall or ceiling material is
sturdy enough to support the weight and
vibration of the speakers.
• It is recommended that our pre-construction
rough in brackets (part number *RB-17) be used
whenever possible in new construction.
• Be certain the area behind the speaker is free
of obstacles such as wall studs, electrical
wiring, pipes, etc.
• Each speaker should be positioned properly,
relative to the listening area for good coverage.
• Audio performance and room-to-room isolation
will be improved if there is some fiberglass
insulation placed loosely behind the speaker.

Speaker Installation:

4.
Connect the speaker wires to the
spring-loaded input terminals on the rear of
the speaker, making sure no loose strands
are exposed. If connecting the CI 6.2s

Using the supplied cutout template,
carefully mark the area to be cut out. Using
a drywall knife or saw, cut a hole in the
drywall and prepare the speaker wires for
connection to the speaker terminals.
5.
Carefully place the speaker/baffle in the
flange making certain that the four V-shaped
index marks on the outer radius of the baffle
and the inside radius of the flange line up.
Attach the speaker/baffle to the flange with
the four pre-installed 1" mounting screws on
the baffle. CAUTION Do not over-tighten.
Stereo Point Source
FIG.2
8 ohms:
Use this configuration to combine left
and right channels for full fidelity sound

Remove the grille from the mounting
flange by pressing it from behind. Insert the
mounting flange into the hole. Loosen the
flange clamping screws one turn (counter
clockwise) to release the clamp. Next,
tighten all four flange clamp screws evenly
to secure the flange to the wall. It is best to
tighten each screw with the same amount of
force (torque). CAUTION: Do not over-tighten.

Using some familiar source material,
listen to the tweeter's balance with the level
control in each of its three positions to find
your favorite.
