Speco SP-5MA Owner's Manual

Wall Mounting:

Once the wattage tap is determined for the speaker, and you have pre-run speaker
wire through the ceiling, the speaker system can be connected through the push
terminals on the back of the speakers. A 14 gauge, shielded UL listed wire is recom-
mended for in-ceiling use. You will connect your positive wire through the red push
terminal on the back of your speaker, and the common speaker wire to the black push
terminal on the back of the speaker.
For a commercial application, the speaker wiring technique must utilize a parallel run.
Never use a series run with commercial speakers.
After connecting the speaker to the wires of the pre-wired ceiling, it is very important
that you mount speakers correctly when installing in the ceiling.
First, take the accompanying die-cut out and trace the outline on ceiling where
speaker is desired. Making absolutely sure that the speaker location is free of
electrical wires, phone wires, cable wires and other construction concerns, carefully
cut out the pre-traced speaker circle in your ceiling to establish the
mounting hole.
On drop ceilings, where ceiling tile is used as the mounting base, it is critical that you
support the weight of these speakers. Speco Technologies has ceiling brackets
supports specifically made for this reason, the RBC-6F for the SP-5MA/T and the
RBC-8F for the SP-6MA/T. Not using bracket supports in the ceiling could result in
drooping ceilings and/or serious injury. Speco Technologies is not responsible for
injury or liability resulting for mis-installed speakers.
For both sheetrock and tile applications, a metal security loop is provided on the back
of the speaker where a safety cable can be run through and secure all the speakers
to a sturdy anchor in the ceiling.
Once the speaker is placed in the ceiling, tighten the four screws on the faceplate
clockwise. This will secure the clamps down behind the speaker and secure it for use.
Upon securing your speaker system, replace the grille.
Warranty:
Speco Technologies offers a limited 15-year warranty on their indoor speakers.
Please reference the enclosed warranty card for complete details of
