IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE

YOU INSTALL YOUR LOUDSPEAKERS

Wall Or Ceiling Surface Preparation

If you’re installing your Vanishing Series speaker

into a heavily textured wall or ceiling (e.g. stucco

or popcorn finish), you must prepare the wall

surface immediately around the speaker

cutout. Sanding and smoothing the wall or

ceiling surface will ensure the speaker and

grille both seat properly and flat to the surface.

LOUDSPEAKER INSTALLATION

You will need:

 • Pencilformarkingthelocationofinstallation.

 • Keyholesaw,utilityknifeormaterial-

appropriate tool for cutting drywall

or other wall material.

 • Screwdriver,preferablypowered,

with Phillips Head bit.

 • Powerdrillwithappropriatebit

(optional, for starting wall cut).

Trace around the template.

Cut the hole with the appropriate tool.

CROSSOVER WARNING

Exercise extreme caution when installing this

loudspeaker so you do not damage the crossover.

SECURITY EYEBOLT

YourVanishingSeriesin-ceilingloudspeaker

has an eyebolt on the back of the speaker that

can be used for an extra measure of installation

security. Follow standard building code installation

procedures in your area.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION SHOULD

YOU CHOOSE TO PAINT YOUR GRILLES

Because of its ultra-thin profile, the Vanishing

Series Sheer-Grille

™ requires a specific painting

procedure to ensure smooth, even coverage.

Important Note: Do not remove the grille

scrim before painting.

Paint Recommendation

We highly recommend you use a can of spray

paint matched to the ceiling color you want

the Sheer-Grilles to blend with.

Important Note: Never use a brush or

roller to paint the grilles, as this will clog

the perforated holes.

To paint the Sheer-Grille

1. Elevate the Sheer-Grille off of a flat surface.

This will ensure even coverage of the grille

frame and make it easier to pick up.

Mounting Idea: A single spray can cap

will raise the grille high enough.

2. Hold the spray paint about 12 from "

the grille and at a 45° angle.

3. Apply one light, thin coat, moving evenly

side to side over the grille, then work your

way around the perimeter of the grille

to ensure you cover the grille frame.

4. After each application of paint, wait

approximately 1 minute, rotate the

grille 90°, and apply the next thin coat.

Important Note:Youmustrotatethegrille

90°. Use your hands to define the next 90°

rotation and always rotate the grille in the

same direction of travel.

5. Three light, even applications should cover

the grille and frame adequately. Remember

to work your way around the grille frame

to cover it evenly and completely.

ROOM ENvIRONMENT CONTROLS

Room Switch

If your listening room is very reflective, with

smooth sheetrock walls, hardwood floors and

non-cushioned furniture, the sound will be

overly “bright” and unnatural.

Engaging the Room Switch (Reflective) compen-

sates for the effect of reflectivity in a “hard room”

by attenuating only the portion of the tweeter

response that can cause harshness resulting

in listener fatigue. This flattens room response

without hindering higher frequency response,

for warmer, more realistic sound and more

accurate imaging.

If your listening room is not highly reflective,

that is it has curtains, carpeting, and cushioned

furniture, leave the Room Switch in its Normal

setting (Norm).

Wall Distance Switch ( )LS models only

In-ceiling loudspeakers excel when placed

more than 2' (60cm) from side walls. If position

limitations demand that in-ceiling loudspeakers

be installed closer than 2' (60cm) from side walls,

the proximity of the surface can result in a response

“bump” between 50Hz and 200Hz. This can cause

in-ceiling speakers to sound “boomy.” The

“Wall Distance” switch flattens response

and eliminates “boominess” without sacrificing

deep bass response, for more lifelike sound.
