1. Using a stud finder, position the template so it is
centered between wall studs or ceiling joists.
2. Hold or pin the template in place and mark
cutout with a pencil.
3. Remove the template and cut out the opening
with a drywall knife/saw.
4. Place fiberglass insulation 12" (30cm) or thicker
between the joists directly above the speaker.
5 Connect speaker cable. Be consistent when
connecting speaker leads to the terminals on
the speaker. Take great care to assign the
same color to the (+) terminal on both the
speaker and the amplifier.
WARNING! Turn your amplifier
off before making or breaking any
signal connections!
6 Place speaker in hole.
7 Orient the tweeter so it is pointing towards the
primary listening position. Use a 2-inch long
#2 Phillips driver and an electric drill. While
holding the speaker in position by the installa-
tion handle, for each set of screws tighten both
screws alternating between either screw until
the mounting lock has moved firmly into place.

8 Loosen wing nuts and remove the installation
handle.
9 Adjust the position switches. For a center chan-
nel application, set the 'Center Channel /
Front or Surround' switch to 'Center Channel'.
For a front- or surround-channel application,
set the 'Center Channel / Front or Surround'
switch to 'Front or Surround' and choose the
appropriate position setting on the 2nd switch.
Please Note: When the 'Center Channel
/ Front or Surround' switch is set to 'Center
Channel' the 2nd switch setting is irrelevant.

the Folded Motion tweeter.
