Speaker Grilles:
Like the entire RS line of products, the RSX Through Mount© speakers feature removable grilles. Reel
Acoustics™ carefully chose a double knit grill cloth to help you fine-tune your system. Many companies
feature "acoustically transparent" grills. Reel Acoustics™ realizes that when speakers are placed near certain
objects, high frequencies in particular can be adversely affected. If you are looking for the ultimate perfor-
mance from your speakers, try removing one or both of the grilles. The exposed speaker(s) will yield over
a 1db gain in the high frequencies, and that speaker will sound brighter. Experimentation may yield ideal
results. For more information, consult your reseller.
Speaker Mounting:
Reel Acoustics spent great time and effort perfecting the Through Mount© system so it would be easy for
installers to use. Once you have decided where you would like the speakers placed, and have run the speaker
wire to that location, you can install the Through wall mount bracket. Each complete RSX Through Mount©
speaker with grille, and Through Mount© assemblies weighs 3.25 lbs, or 1.46 kgs. You will need to decide
what fasteners (not supplied) you will use to attach the wall mount bracket to the wall so it will stay secure.
Several types of fasteners are available. Please carefully choose the fasteners that work best for your applica-
tion.
Installing is as easy as one, two, three!
1. Using your fasteners, attach the wall mount assembly to the location where you would like the speaker
installed.
2. With the grille off, insert a screwdriver or similar device into the back hole of the Through Mount© on the
speaker to push out the "cap" on the front of the speaker. Find the supplied 2" long (5cm) Phillips head
(X head) machine screw, and insert into the hole on the front of the speaker that became exposed when you
removed the cap. With the speaker in one hand, place a Phillips screwdriver into the hole on the front of
the speaker, until the machine screw is out the back of the speaker as far as it will go. Place the speaker up
to the wall mount assembly so the machine screw mates up to the threaded insert on the wall mount
bracket and start tightening the screw. Turn the screw until you feel that the speaker is snug against the
wall mount bracket. A hand screwdriver is HIGHLY recommended for this. Please do not use a power
driver of any kind for this step!
3. Once you are convinced the speaker is snug to the wall bracket, you should have enough slack to easily
move the speaker around on any axis and adjust the positioning. Once you are happy with the position
of the speaker, tighten the screw down, re-install the cap on the front of the speaker, attach the wires
(see below) and youʼre done! You may readjust the speaker at any time by removing the cap and repeating
this step.
