Phase-Tech MusicGarden Manual

Solaris Series | MusicGarden
Thank you for purchasing the Music Garden system from Phase Technology. When
properly installed, these speakers will provide years of listening enjoyment. Flexible
mounting options mean these speakers can accommodate almost any outdoor space to
provide full coverage and amazing audio in your private outdoor escape.
Site Preparation
There are several factors to consider when choosing mounting locations for your Music
Garden landscape speakers:
• The speakers may be mounted in the ground with the provided ground spike or they
may be mounted on walls or vertical surfaces with the optional wall mounting plate.
• There should be a direct line of sight from the speaker to the listening area.
• Position each speaker so they are all approximately the same distance away from the
listening area.
• Using high and low speaker locations will help to centralize the acoustic stage.
• Position the speakers 15' - 20' apart, but not more than 30' from the listening area.
• Be sure to select mounting locations that will not have high foot traffic or where
landscaping equipment will frequently pass by.
• Do not place the speakers in areas that are prone to flooding with standing water.
• The speakers should not be positioned directly in front of, or in direct spray from,
sprinklers.
• Do not aim the speaker at more than 45˚ from horizontal.
• A spike mount extension is available for installations requiring additional mounting
depth.
The Music Garden System comes with one 8 inch dual-voice coil subwoofer and four 4
inch satellite speakers - the MG4. It is acceptable to add up to two additional MG4 units
to one Music Garden system. For systems requiring eight or more satellite speakers, it is
recommended to purchase two complete systems. The final number of speakers and
subwoofers will depend on the coverage needed for the intended space. Sufficient
amplifier power will need to be provided to accommodate the final number of speakers in
the installation. Please call your PhaseTech dealer or email techsupport@mseaudio.com
for technical support if needed.
Included are some typical installation layouts for reference.
