Thank you for purchasing Phase Technology CI Custom
Installation speakers. This eighth generation of high
performance in-wall models features the same superb
sonic performance as our acclaimed PC-Series cabinet
speakers in addition to great flexibility and easy installa-
tion, thanks to Phase Tech's patented QuickMount™
tool-free clamping system. All CI-Series speakers include
self-resetting solid-state PTC protection circuits. This
unique system is able to detect when the speaker is being
over-driven and lowers the speaker volume until the
problem is corrected. The PTC device then resets itself for
normal operation. Other features include liquid-cooled
tweeters for greater power handling, moisture-resistant
materials in all of the critical speaker components, galva-
nized steel speaker grilles and stainless steel hardware
for improved corrosion resistance, tweeter level controls,
and flexible configurations for Bi-Pole/Di-Pole or one point
stereo operation.

Flange Installation:
1. Choose the appropriate mounting location for each speaker.
NOTE – When deciding upon a location consider the following:
•Be certain your speaker wires can be run to or are accessible from these
locations.
•Make certain the wall or ceiling material is sturdy enough to support the
weight and vibration of the speakers.
•It is recommended that our re-construction rough in brackets (part number
RB-18) be used whenever possible in new construction.
•Be certain the area behind the speaker is free of obstacles such as wall
studs, electrical wiring, pipes, etc.
•Each speaker should be positioned properly relative to the listening area for
good coverage.
•Audio performance and room-to-room isolation will be improved if there is
some fiberglass insulation placed loosely behind the speaker.
2.
Remove the speaker and flange/grille assemblies from their boxes. Using
the supplied cutout template, carefully mark the area to be cut out. Using a
drywall knife or saw, cut the hole in the drywall and prepare the speaker wires
for connection to the speaker terminals. Use a level to insure that the flange
is square. (Fig. 1a)
