OSD Audio ACE800ST Install Manual

Preparation:
Tools For Installation
- Pencil - Wire Cutter
- Drill - Phillips Screwdriver
- Tape Measure - Utility Knife
Considerations
- Where is the best place to install the speakers?
- Where do the speakers sound the best?
- Separate the speakers 6 - 10 feet apart.
Installation:
Cut Out
NOTE: This is the most important part of the entire installation.
If you are not certain whether any obstructions exist behind the
desired mounting area, you should start by cutting a small hole in
the center of your penciled mounting hole with a drywall saw.
Trace along the included template. Cut along the traced line using a
drywall saw or rotary drill. Use a piece of sandpaper to sand down the
cut out edge for a smoother contour. (See Diagram 1.)
Connection
When connecting any speakers to the amplifier always make sure
the power is off. Locate the connection terminals on the back of
your amplifier. Always make sure to connect audio out from the
back of your amplifier to the speakers.
(See Diagram 2.)
NOTE: Not all Amplifier can safely play more than one pair of
speakers at once. Please refer to your amplifier owner's manual for
impedance and wattage compatibility.
Transformer Settings
Choose the correct wires on the transformer for your particular
application.
(See Diagram 3.)
NOTE: Tap settings may differ slightly from diagram
depending on model.
