OWNER’S MANUAL

Thank you for purchasing the C1030 LCR Ceiling Speaker. The

directional woofer and pivoting midrange and tweeter make

the C1030 a perfect choice for in-ceiling home cinema speaker

setups, from stereo and LCR (left-center-right), to 3.1, 5.1 and

7.1 configurations. The three-way speaker system with 10"

woofer brings you an extraordinarily robust music or cinema

experience, while the ±3dB midrange and tweeter adjustments

provide ultimate fine-tuning to room size and acoustics, or

according to personal preference.

• (1) C1030 LCR Ceiling Speaker & Grille

• (1) PCB-C1000 Mounting Bracket

• (1) Hole-Cutting Template

• (1) Paint Mask Insert

WARNING: To avoid possible injury, the PCB-C1000

Mounting Bracket must be used with the C1030

speaker for both new construction and retrofit

installations. The included mounting bracket

was specifically designed to support the weight and size of the

C1030, and to prevent it from coming loose and dropping from

the ceiling. Always use the PCB-C1000 Mounting Bracket when

installing the C1030 speaker.

INTRODUCTION PACKAGE CONTENTS

Before installing your C1030 LCR Ceiling Speaker, you should

consider its placement carefully, taking into account the

location of HVAC ducts, electrical conduit, plumbing lines,

and other fixtures. For retrofit installations, this can best be

determined by noting the placement of fixtures and gaining

access to an attic or crawl space for further analysis of the

location of such obstacles.

Prior to the actual installation of the speaker, it will be

necessary to run wiring to the speaker location. After the

wire has been properly installed, you are ready to install the

mounting bracket. For new construction, mount the speaker

after the drywall installation is complete.

Placement in Ceiling: When placing your speaker into the

ceiling, it should be located so that the fixed 15˚ angle woofer

is pointed toward the primary listening area. If the speaker is

positioned away from the primary listening area, simply adjust

the pivoting midrange and tweeter so they are pointed toward it.

Note: To avoid possible damage to the pivoting midrange and

tweeter, read the section entitled “SPEAKER ADJUSTMENTS”

in this manual prior to performing the adjustment. In very

large rooms with low ceilings, it may be necessary to place

additional speakers throughout the room for better coverage.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT & SETUP

The included PCB-C1000 Mounting Bracket is designed for both

new construction & retrofit installations. The PCB-C1000 Mounting

Bracket may be installed prior to drywall application across joists

(from 16" to 24" on-center) where a speaker will be located.

For new construction, the PCB-C1000 Mounting Bracket is also

available separately, in the event that the C1030 speaker has not

yet arrived on-site, or is otherwise not available. Always use the

PCB-C1000 Mounting Bracket when installing the C1030 speaker.

To install the mounting bracket in new construction:

1. Find the joists nearest the desired speaker mounting

location. If you need to align the speaker to some other object

or molding in the room, be sure to consider the size of the

baffle flange which extends beyond the mounting hole.

2. Line up bottom of one of the mounting bars with the

bottom of the joist. This will place the screw holes in an “L”

position, flush with the side of the joist, and the mounting ring

“lip” will be facing downward. Attach the mounting bar to the

joist using appropriate wood screws.

3. Make sure that the mounting ring is in a perfectly circular

shape by opening the bracket until the arms come in contact

with the stoppers. Then, line up the bottom of the other

mounting bar with the bottom of the same joist. Attach the

mounting bar to the joist using appropriate wood screws.

MOUNTING BRACKET INSTALLATION – NEW CONSTRUCTION (See Diagram 1)

The included PCB-C1000 Mounting Bracket is designed for

both new construction and retrofit installations. The intelligent

folding design facilitates mounting the bracket through a

speaker cut-out, therefore the mounting bracket may be

installed across 16" to 24" on-center joists after drywall is

installed. Always use the PCB-C1000 Mounting Bracket when

installing the C1030 speaker.

Retrofit Installation - Finished Ceilings

Follow the first set of instructions to prepare the mounting

surface for a professional looking installation. Then, follow the

second set of instructions for the mounting bracket installation.

To prepare the mounting surface in a retrofit installation:

1. Find the joists nearest the desired speaker mounting

location. We highly recommend using a good stud-finder tool

for this procedure. If you need to align the speakers to some

other object or molding in the room, be sure to consider the

size of the baffle flange which extends beyond the mounting

hole. Please allow 1¼" space from the joist.

2. Mark the hole. A template for setting the hole is provided in

the box (along with a paint mask insert for use when painting).

Position the template in the desired position and pencil an

outline on the ceiling.

3. Cut the hole. CAUTION: This is the most important part

of the entire installation. If you are not certain whether any

obstructions exist behind the desired mounting area, you

should start by cutting a small hole in the center of your

penciled mounting hole with a drywall saw, cutting at a 45°

angle towards the inside of the hole. (See Diagram 3) Cutting

the small hole at this angle will make drywall repair much

easier, using the piece cut out. Once you have determined that

there aren’t any obstructions in your desired mounting location,

cut the finished hole at a 90° angle to the ceiling surface.

To install the mounting bracket in a retrofit:

1. Move the mounting bars in opposite directions, so that the

mounting ring folds down to its narrowest width. Collapse the

mounting bars to their shortest length.

2. With the mounting ring lip facing downward, insert

the mounting bracket into the ceiling cavity through the

previously cut hole in the ceiling drywall.

3. Make sure that the mounting ring is in a perfectly circular

shape by opening the bracket until the arms come in contact

with the stoppers, then set it into the ceiling hole. Push one

of the mounting bar L-shaped edges until it is flush with the

joist, and the bottom of the mounting bar lines up with the

bottom of the joist. Attach the mounting bar to the joist using

appropriate wood screws.

4. Push the other mounting bar L-shaped edge until it is flush

with the same joist, and the bottom of the mounting bar lines

up with the bottom of the joist. Attach the mounting bar to

the joist using appropriate wood screws.

5. Stretch both mounting bars to reach the opposite joist, then

line up the bottoms of each mounting bar with the bottom

of the joist. Attach each mounting bar to the joist using

appropriate wood screws.

6. If the area in the ceiling is not already insulated, add an

adequate amount of insulation material to loosely cover where

the speaker will be positioned, being sure that the speaker wire

remains accessible. If the insulation material used is faced with

foil or paper, position the foil or paper away from the speaker.

4. Stretch both mounting bars to reach the opposite joist, then

line up the bottoms of each mounting bar with the bottom

of the joist. Attach each mounting bar to the joist using

appropriate wood screws.

5. To adjust the position of the mounting ring between the

joists, grab both sides of the mounting ring, where it connects

to the mounting bar, then move the mounting ring into the

desired position.

6. If the area in the ceiling is not already insulated, add an

adequate amount of insulation material to loosely cover where

the speaker will be positioned, being sure that the speaker wire

remains accessible. If the insulation material used is faced with

foil or paper, position the foil or paper away from the speaker.

Adding insulation may also be done after drywall installation.

The protruding lip of the mounting ring will force the drywall

installers to hang the drywall with an appropriate hole cut out

around the mounting ring lip. After the drywall has been hung

and finished, the speakers are then easily installed following the

instructions for mounting in “SPEAKER INSTALLATION” below.

The unique integral mounting system incorporated into each

LCR Ceiling Series speaker allows for a quick installation by

following these easy steps:

1. Attach the speaker wire, observing the proper polarity with

your amplifier, + to + and – to –. Make sure the appropriate

channel of the amplifier is connected to the correct speaker

(i.e. left, right or surrounds).

2. Be sure the mounting feet are turned inward to clear the

opening, and insert the speaker into the ceiling. Position the

speaker into the hole, being sure that the angled baffle is

pointed toward the intended direction.

Note: The flange of the speaker is designed to flex and

conform to any small imperfections in the ceiling’s surface.

Tighten the screws on the front of the baffle only enough to

make the flange become snug against the ceiling.

3. As you tighten the screws, the feet automatically flip into an

outward position (See Diagram 4), and begin to tighten from

the backside, thereby clamping the drywall and mounting ring

between the feet and the flange.

CAUTION: Overtightening may warp the baffle, crack the

ceiling, cause the flange to distort, and make the grille difficult

to install.

4. Push the grille firmly into the slot around the speaker baffle.

The LCR Ceiling Series speakers come from the factory with the

midrange and tweeter in line with the 15˚ angle of the woofer.

This will result in the optimal directivity of the speaker system.

However, depending on your particular primary listening area,

room acoustics, ceiling height, or personal preference, you may

find the sound more pleasing by pointing the midrange and/or

tweeter in a particular direction.

For example, if additional treble

is desired in the primary listening

area, point the tweeter toward

that area; and if less treble is

required, point the tweeter away.

Push gently at the edge of the

tweeter to point it in the desired

direction. For optimal directivity

of the midrange, point it towards

the listening area. If you wish to

diffuse the midrange, such as

when using a C1030 as a side-fill

in a 7.1 setup, point the midrange

speaker slightly away from the

listening area.

CAUTION: Avoid touching metal dome tweeters or midrange

speaker surfaces, as damage may occur. Carefully press on the

edge of each pivoting mechanism as indicated. (See Diagram 5)

Tweeter Adjustment:

The switch labeled TREBLE allows

for ±3dB of treble adjustment.

Your speakers are shipped with

the treble switch in the middle

position, providing the most linear

frequency response. If you desire

more treble, move the switch to

the “+” position, and the tweeter

will play 3dB louder. If you desire

less treble, move the switch to the

“–” position, and the tweeter will

play 3dB softer. To return to the

neutral setting, move the switch

back to the middle position. (See Diagram 6)

Midrange Adjustment:

The switch labeled MIDRANGE allows for ±3dB of midrange

adjustment. Your speakers were shipped with the midrange

switch set to the middle position, providing the most linear

frequency response. If you desire more midrange, move the

switch to the “+” position and the midrange will play 3dB

louder. If you desire less midrange, push the switch to the “–”

position and the midrange will play 3dB softer. To return to the

neutral setting, move the switch back to the middle position.

(See Diagram 6)

If you plan to paint your speaker (grille and flange), we

recommend that it be done prior to installation. If you plan to

paint your speaker sometime in the future, it is best to remove

it by simply reversing the steps for “SPEAKER INSTALLATION”

above. If it is necessary to paint the speaker while it's still in

the ceiling, the paint mask provided in the carton must be

installed in place of the grille while the flange is being painted

with the ceiling.

Do not paint the grille while it's installed on the speaker.

Before painting, remove the material from the inside of the

grille. Once the grille has been painted, return the material

back into place. Great care should be taken not to clog the

holes of the grille, as this will reduce both the sonic and

aesthetic qualities of the speakers. Proficient recommends

only light spray painting using 5 parts thinning agent to 1

part paint.
