Page 14: System Planning & Installation
9. SYSTEM PLANNING & INSTALLATION The speakers and subwoofer should be strategically placed to evenly distribute sound throughout the outdoor area. Fully plan out the locations of the amp, all speakers, subwoofer and buried wires, before beginning the installation process. The system is designed for the speakers to be evenly divided between two PARALLEL wire runs, with the subwoofer connected to both. - Page 15 III. Feed the speaker wire through the top hole of the ground stake and out the wire hole on the side of the stake. Δ The speaker can now be screwed onto the stake clockwise until tight.

- Page 16 III. If the SUB10 will be in-ground, make a hole 16'' diameter x 7'' deep and insert the subwoofer. Δ Bury NO MORE than 7'' deep. Δ Be sure the “grilles” are high enough as to not get submerged. Place subwoofer, as level as possible, not tilted, in the center of hole & use loose dirt to level the subwoofer, ensuring the subwoofer is not in direct contact with any large rocks or large empty holes.
- Page 17 9c. Positioning & Installing the Amplifier Δ Locate a shaded area for the amplifier to be installed out of direct sunlight. Δ Use a minimum of 14 AWG wire for sending a strong signal. 9d. Running Wires from the Amplifier to the Speaker & Subwoofer I.
- Page 18 Making sure to use the supplied waterproof wire nuts, connect both left and right channels to the subwoofer, making sure positive is connected to positive and negative is connected to negative. Continue down the line and connect the rest of the speakers. II.
- Page 19 Δ Extend to the 2nd RIGHT satellite speaker in the same manner. Repeat this process if using additional satellite speakers on the RIGHT channel Δ (MAXIMUM of 4 satellites on each channel). Δ Connect speakers and subwoofer, making absolutely sure you always connect positive to positive and negative to negative.

Page 22: Testing The System
11. TESTING THE SYSTEM Get the system playing, then go up close to each of the satellite speakers and the subwoofer to make sure all of them are working. If any one speaker is not working, check the connection for that speaker. If multiple speakers are not working, start by checking the connection for the disconnected speaker that’s closest to the subwoofer, then check the other connections down the line until you get all the satellites... -
Page 23: Troubleshooting
If the connection seems good, try connecting a spare speaker to see if it works. If the spare speaker works but the Landscape speaker doesn’t, contact Adept Audio. No sound from all the right-channel or all the left-channel speakers: Check to make sure the source device is connected to the input of the L-300. -
