    AMBISONIC BOLLARD COLLECTION™ 5D. ADDING SEALANT BEFORE SLEEVE ASSEMBLY Polyurethane Sealant: It is recommended that Polyurethane Sealant be applied between the Sleeve & the Subwoofer Base. Care should be taken to apply a liberal 1/4'' bead of Poly- urethane Sealant on the Subwoofer: around the Port Tube Base and around the Screw Cap, before then assembling the sleeve over the Port Tube.

    AMBISONIC BOLLARD COLLECTION™ 7. SYSTEM LAYOUT Placement of the speakers throughout the home’s exterior will depend on a couple of factors. The first is how uniform of a sound field is required. The laws of physics dictate that the further the listener is from the sound source the lower the apparent sound pressure level or “volume.”...
  • Page 18 AMBISONIC BOLLARD COLLECTION™ 8B. RECOMMENDED SPRINKLER PRECAUTIONS It is highly recommended that the Bollard speaker be installed at a location such that the water sprinkler nearby (if any) does not spray the water jet into or +/- 2 inches from vertical slots of the bollard shell.
  • Page 19: Optional Drain Plug

    AMBISONIC BOLLARD COLLECTION™ 8C. RECOMMENDED BURIAL DEPTH The subwoofer enclosure should be buried to a level where the dirt covers the wire nut and protruding wire at the top of enclosure. Holes for the subs should be deep enough to cover the entire lower section of the enclosure with approximately 1-inch of dirt on top of the that section.
  • Page 20 AMBISONIC BOLLARD COLLECTION™ 9B. OPTION 2: WITHOUT DRAIN PLUG DRAIN PLUG IS REMOVED This option is recommended: • In applications with dry soil where occasional water may accidently enter the enclosure. Use of gravel and sand will allow any water that gets into the sub enclosure to properly escape.

    AMBISONIC BOLLARD COLLECTION™ 11. NOTE: PAINTING THE SLEEVE The outer sleeve (pillar) of the Ambisonic Bollard speaker has been anodized specifically for achieving maximum durability of the pillar color. If you wish to change the color of the Bollard sleeve by painting, or other process, it may compromise the durability and finish of the product, compared to the original manufacturing process and modify the specifications.

    AMBISONIC BOLLARD COLLECTION™ 12. TROUBLESHOOTING If you have a problem, try isolating it first. For example, if you’re playing a DVD and there is no sound, try replacing the DVD with an MP3 player to see if you get sound. If it does work, then the problem is with the television, DVD player, or the cables connecting them.
