Where To Place Your SPEAKERS Placement can make all the difference in how your RUSSOUND speaker system sounds. There are at least three “WHERE’s” and a “HOW” to factor into your layout: • HOW you intend to use your in-wall speakers • WHERE they’ll sound best (stereo imaging and acoustic considerations) • WHERE it’s possible to install them (wall and ceiling surfaces) • WHERE they can be installed that makes it easy to get wires to them without remodeling your entire house.

OTHER ACOUSTIC CONSIDERATIONS For best fidelity, there are several other factors to keep in mind before you start actual installation.

1. Determine the location of your wall studs so that the speaker can be approximately centered between them. There are several ways to go about this: * Tap on the wall and listen to the resulting “THUMP”. When it’s deeper, you’re between studs. When it’s sharper and more flat-sounding, you’re close to a stud. * Use a stud-finder, a simple little magnetic device which works by locating the lines of nails hammered into the stud. * Identify studs by the position of electrical outlets or switch

NOTE: It is important that you label your wires left and right when you run them to eliminate future confusion. AT THE SPEAKER END 1.

FINAL ASSEMBLY 1. If you haven’t done so already during painting, remove the perforated grilles from both Russound In-Wall Speakers. Use the clamp (dog-ear) to push the grille out from the back side. 2.

Try to tighten each screw equally but do not over tighten. 3. Insert the Russound speaker grille by gently pressing it into place. In most installations,

If your other speakers are rated at 4-ohms, some amplifiers may experience difficulty driving both 4-ohm sets at once and shut off intermittently when the volume control is turned up. In this case, you should operate only one set of speakers at a time or keep the volume extremely low. Another option is to purchase a speaker selector such as the Russound SS4 & SS6 series or a PRO series speaker selector. These are designed to maintain impedance control allowing your amplifier to work efficiently
