Introduction WG Series ceiling and in-wall speakers are designed to provide clear, sharply-focused audio reproduction while remaining unobtrusive in the background. These speakers bring out the best in any home theater or whole-house stereo system. These products also offer many features, including: • 1” Asymmetrical Aluminum Dome Tweeter • Tweeter is mounted on swivel base that en- ables positioning up to 15 degrees off axis at a 180-degree rotation • Slide switches for bass and tre

Some type of protection will be required for the back of the speaker if blown insulation is used. The following is a partial list of ways to protect the speaker: • Use an RE-16 speaker cover • Use a piece of wood that will cover at least 3 feet on either side of the speaker opening. The ends may be partially closed to keep the blown insulation from reaching th

of the speaker, use a piece of bat insulation at least 3 inches thick in the stud cavity. This insulation should not have a backing or if it does, the backing must be installed facing away from the speaker. The insulation should extend about 2 ft. on either side of the speaker opening. Do not install speakers in outside walls, stud cavities containing 120/240V appliances, within 18 inches of dimmers, security wiring and other control wiring. Speaker Installation for New Constructi

TIPS FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION • If possible, run speaker wires after AC wiring is in place to avoid additional noise caused by close proximity of wiring. • Secure the speaker wires against a joist with insulated staples, being careful not to pierce the wire insulation. Allow slack for building material expansion. • Horizontal wire runs should be routed through holes drilled at equal heights in the joist. • Do not install the actual speaker until the wall board is in place. Until then lea

installed. Leave at least 18 inches additional ca- ble for the connection during final speaker instal- lation. Run the other end of the speaker cable to the audio source. NOTE: Make a drawing of each speaker location. This will assist you in locating the wires if they have been covered after the wall board has been installed. Step 3. This is the finish-out stage. Prepare the speaker wiring by stripping off approximately 3 inches of the outer jacket (care should be taken so the insul

Attach the speaker cable to the speaker by pressing down on the red (+) or black (-) gold-plated push terminals and inserting the red wire in the red terminal and the black wire in the black terminal. See Figure 3. Make sure that none of the strands from the black and red wires are touching each other. This can create a short circuit that can damage your electronics.

In-wall Speakers Step 1. Speaker mounting rings are used in the pre-construction phase of speaker installation during construction of new homes and additions. WG Series mounting rings are designed to provide drywall installers the correct cut-out pattern for the speakers. The rings have “flaps” that are nailed/screwed/stapled onto the studs. See figure 8. Once the wall board is installed, the opening is cut out and the speaker frame is inserted into the mounting ring. When i

• Do not install the actual speaker until the wall board is in place. Until then leave several feet of wire secured to the back of the mounting ring. The excess wire can be removed during final installation. During the drywall installation, make sure the speaker cut-out hole does not extend farther than 1/4 inch from the inside of the mounting ring. The flat rough-in rings and flaps are thin enough that they won’t interfere with installation. Step 2. After you have determined the s

Step 3. This is the finish-out stage. Prepare the speaker wiring by stripping off approximately 3 inches of the outer jacket (care should be taken so the insulation on the wires inside the jacket are not damaged) also strip approximately 3/8 inch off the ends of the two inside conductors. Twist the ends of the stranded cable so the wires are tight. Step 4. Follow the instructions included with the volume control and amplifier. Step 5. You are now ready to install the frame. Remov

After the speaker is mounted, adjustments to the swivel tweeter (small speaker) can be made by either directing the sound visually or by using a musical source to determine the best sound coverage for the listening area. To position the tweeter, press at the outside edge of the tweeter housing (DO NOT PRESS DIRECTLY ON THE CONE). Not

for Existing Construction Ceiling Speakers For existing construction, the use of mounting rings can not occur. The following steps outline how to locate a section between two joists, mark the outer boundaries of the hole, drill a small hole in the center to verify the location and then cut the main hole. Step 1. Determine the location of the joists so the speaker can be centered approximately between them. There are several ways to go about this: • Use an electronic stud finder. M

Step 5. Insert the bent part into the 1-inch hole you just drilled and probe to the left and the right to confirm that a joist is not too close on either side. Move the wire around in a circular motion to check clearances above and below the hole as well. Step 6. If there are no obstructi

When the sound is sharper and more flat sounding, you are close or over a stud. • Identify studs by the position of electrical outlets or switches. There may be a stud directly to the left or right of these electrical fixture. This gives you a point of measurement since studs are either 24 or 16 inches on center in newer houses, 12 inches in older homes. Step 2. When you are sure of where the wall’s studs are (and are completely sure there isn’t an electrical cable, water pipe or
