Indoor/outdoor/all weather speaker system

Description
Thank you for purchasing these new Voyager
with the latest and best weather resistance and manufacturing methods, the Voyagers are ideally
suited to anything you can throw at them. Try outdoor use – sun, rain, snow, heat, and cold – or
marine use. They are equally at home in your home, for background music, hi-fi, or home theater.
All models in the Voyager line are true two-way designs with all acoustic parts sealed and
gasketed against penetrating weather.
Drawing from over a decade of all-weather speaker expertise, Boston built the Voyager series to
minimize exposure of acoustic parts to weather and with materials proven to resist the elements:
polypropylene cabinets with UV light and impact resistance, all-aluminum grilles and brackets,
gold-plated speaker connectors. All drivers are manufactured from high-tech plastics, rubbers,
and other materials that have been extensively tested for durability. Versatile brackets simplify
installation in many situations (and the speakers' shape makes corner placement easy). The
large, grippy knobs make adjustment to speaker angle easy.
Enjoy your New Voyager speakers!

How to Connect Your Speakers
You need to wire your speakers correctly to obtain the best sound quality and a proper stereo
image. Wiring should take a few minutes, but it's important to do it carefully, since incorrect wiring
(such as reversed connections) can result in a poor stereo soundstage or poor bass. We
recommend 18 gauge (or heavier) lamp cord or speaker wire for runs of up to 25 feet (8m), and
thicker 16 gauge for longer runs. Strip 1 /2" (12mm) of insulation off the ends of each speaker cable
to expose the two conductors, and tightly twist the wire strands. In installations where wiring is run
on or through a building, use appropriate weatherproof wire that complies with local codes. See
your dealer or other knowledgeable person for recommendations on suitable wiring.
WARNING:
To prevent electrical shock hazard, always switch off the amplifier or receiver when making
connections to the speaker. When making all connections, be sure to connect the + (red) on the
speaker to the + (red) on the amplifier, and the - (black) on the speaker to the – (black) on the
amplifier.
IMPORTANT: Typically, one side of the wire
is smooth. Connect this side to the – (black)
connection. The other side has a rib or
stripe or other marking. Connect this to the
+ (red) connection.
