  • Page 3: Introduction

    While we expect your local Wisdom Audio dealer to take care of the setup and calibration of the system, we recommend that you review this and the other manuals for the components in your system in order to better understand the full system capabilities.
  • Page 4: Installing The Ics7A

    Installing the ICS7a The Wisdom Audio Sage Series ICS7a in-ceiling speaker is shipped fully assembled. Please use caution when unpacking the ICS7a so as not to be injured by the weight of the unit. Installation Instructions 1. Using the installation template included in the box, tack or tape the template to the ceiling where the speaker module is to be installed.
  • Page 5 Installing the ICS7a Cont. Fig. 1 IC-LAT attached to the ICS7a Planar Magnetic Hybrid Loudspeaker Installation Instructions Cont. 8. If the IC-LAT is used: Turn the laser on the IC-LAT on by rotating the thumbscrew slowly in a counter-clockwise direction until the laser is activated.
  • Page 6 Installing the ICS7a Cont. Installation Instructions Cont. 9. If the IC-LAT is NOT used: Locate the directivity indicators on the rim of the speaker module, Fig. 2. Rotate the speaker module until the directivity indicators are centered on the desired listening position. Tighten the four screws that control the dog ears until the speaker module is fixed tightly to the ceiling.
  • Page 7: Verticle Sound Dispersion

    Vertical Sound Dispersion A sound radiation pattern demonstrates how sound pressure is spread from a loudspeaker out into the room surrounding the loudspeaker. In the diagrams below the ICS7a has a normalized vertical radiation pattern that disperses sound uniformly across the field of sound radiation. The ICS7a was designed to maximize sound levels throughout the listening area.
  • Page 8: Horizontal Sound Dispersion

    Horizontal Sound Dispersion In the diagrams below the ICS7a does not have a normalized horizontal sound radiation pattern. This is caused by a principle of mathematics called a Head Related Transfer Function (HRTF). HRTF explains how our ears understand sound that comes from above us.
  • Page 9: Room Placement Multi-Channel Audio

    Room Placement Multi-Channel Audio The ICS7a was designed to give a full theater experience from an in-ceiling speaker. If used in a multi-channel configuration special attention must be taken to ensure the loudspeaker’s performance is not diminished by boundary effects. Installing the loudspeaker too close to the adjacent walls will cause the dynamic range to be amplified beyond factory recommendations.
  • Page 10: Room Placement Distributed Audio

    Room Placement for Distributed Audio The ICS7a may be used in high quality distributed audio applications. If used in this configuration special attention must be paid to ensure the loudspeaker’s performance is not diminished by boundary effects. Installing the loudpseaker too close to the adjacent wall will cause the dynamic range to be amplified beyond factory recommendation.
  • Page 11: Care & Maintenance

    Care & Maintenance To clean, with the grille on the ICS7a, use a feather duster or a lint-free soft cloth to remove dust from the grille on the speaker module. To remove stubborn dirt and fingerprints from the grille, we recommend isopropyl alcohol and a soft cloth.
  • Page 12: North American Warranty
