Elura Red Label Series Quick Start Manual

Congratulations on choosing an Elura In-Wall Loud-
speaker. Like all Elura products, great care has been taken
in their design. Their combination of advanced engineer-
ing and state-of-the-art materials will provide you with
years of listening pleasure, while blending smoothly into
your home's decor. Before you get started, it is a good
idea to identify all the parts and hardware (See FIG. 1).

Where To Place Your In-Wall Speakers

Placement can make all the difference in how your sound
speakersd, and how easy they will be to install. Carefully consider
where your speakers should be positioned. For optimum performance, speakers should
be mounted to the left and right of the main listening area and a minimum of 8 to
10feet apart (See FIG. 2). Avoid mounting speakers in stud cavities containing electrical
wiring, heating ducts, water pipes, etc. Make sure the ceiling materials are sturdy
enough to support the weight of the speakers.
In-Wall Placement: Optimum performance will be achieved when your speaker's
tweeters are mounted at your seated ear level (usually about 30˝ - 40˝ from the floor
depending on your seating) or slightly higher. If you desire to mount them higher in the
wall, turn the speaker over so the tweeter is closer to the listening area.

Pivoting Tweeters

The tweeters in all Elura Series speakers may be adjusted, allowing you to focus the
speakers' high frequency output to better fit the listening area. The overall smoothest
response is achieved with the tweeter facing straight out; however, you may find the
sound more pleasing by aiming tweeters toward a particular listening area. To adjust the
tweeter, apply pressure on the ring surrounding the tweeter with your thumb or finger.

Tweeter Level Adjustments

The tweeter level control allows you to tailor the speaker's frequency response to better
match the room's acoustics. As an example, if a room has a hardwood floor, which
makes it acoustically brighter sounding, you may want to adjust the tweeter level down
to compensate. You can experiment to find the sound that's most pleasing to you in
your particular listening environment.

Speaker Installation In Existing Construction

Once you have selected the location for your speakers, you are ready to install them.
You will need the following:
• Stud Finder • Drill & Drill Bits
• Pencil • Phillips Screwdriver
Elura recommends the use of 16-gauge wire minimum. For wire options consult your
retailer or custom audio contractor.
1. Elura Speakers are designed to be installed in the ceiling or wall area between studs.
Using a stud finder, make sure you are between two studs. Tape the supplied template to
the wall and lightly trace around it with a pencil.
2. Cut the hole using your drywall saw.
You may want to start with a small
hole in the center of the outline.
This will allow you to check for
any obstructions that may exist
behind the desired location.
