Note : The flange of the speaker is designed to flex and conform to any small imperfections in the wall surface. Tighten the 6 screws on the front of the baffle only enough to make the flange become snug against the ceiling or wall. As you tighten the screws, the feet will automatically flip into an outward position, thereby clamping the drywall between the feet and the flange.
The surface should be cleaned with a light solvent to remove any dust or residue. Soundavo recommends a light spray-painting using 5 parts thinning agent to 1 part paint. Do not paint the grid while they are attached to the speaker, before proceeding with installation.
