OSD Audio BLACK Series Install Manual

Preparation:
Tools For Installation
- Pencil - Wire Cutter
- Drill - Phillips Screwdriver
- Tape Measure - Utility Knife
Considerations
- Where is the best place to install the speakers?
- Where do the speakers sound the best?
- Separate the speakers 6 - 10 feet apart.
Placement
There are many options for proper speaker placement depending
upon speaker type and application. It's important to carefully plan the
placement of your speakers, as installation requires that you cut a
hole in your wall or ceiling.
(See Diagram 1.) Typical speaker placement for a 5.1 and 7.1
speaker system.
Installation:
Cut Out
NOTE: This is the most important part of the entire installation.
If you are not certain whether any obstructions exist behind the
desired mounting area, you should start by cutting a small hole in
the center of your penciled mounting hole with a drywall saw.
Trace along the included template. Cut along the traced line using a
drywall saw or rotary drill. Use a piece of sandpaper to sand down the
cut out edge for a smoother contour. (See Diagram 2.)
