OWNER’S MANUAL
WALL SERIES
W670 W680 W800
Before installing your speakers, you should consider their place-
ment carefully, taking into account the location of electrical,
plumbing and other fixtures. Contact your Dealer for assistance
if you are unsure of the best location for your particular listening
environment.
Placement In Wall: When installing your speakers into the wall,
ideal sound will be achieved when the tweeters are placed at ear
level or slightly higher and the primary listening area is no closer
to the wall than the distance between the speakers themselves.
(See Diagram 1)
If the speakers are positioned far away from the primary listening
area, adjust the pivoting tweeters so they are pointed towards it.
Note: To avoid possible damage to the pivoting tweeters, read the
section entitled “SPEAKER ADJUSTMENTS in this manual prior
to performing the tweeter adjustment.
New Construction - Unfinished Walls
A Pre-Construction Bracket, available from your Dealer, may be
installed prior to drywall application across studs (up to 24" on-
center) where a speaker will be located. After the hole is cut and
the drywall is installed, the speakers are then easily installed
following the instructions for mounting inFinished Walls” below.
Note: If the speakers are to be mounted more than 24" on-center,
a special “Extra Long Wing” is available from your Dealer.
Finished Walls
Prior to the actual installation of the speakers, it will be necessary
to run cables to the speaker locations. See your Dealer for more
information about cable installation. After the cable has been
properly installed, you are ready to mount the speakers. Following
the simple steps listed below will result in a professional looking
installation:
1. Determine the best area to mount your speakers. This area of
the wall should be free of obstructions such as electrical con-
duit, HVAC ducts, or water lines. 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.
2. Find the studs nearest the desired speaker mounting loca-
tion. We highly recommend using a good stud-finder tool for
this procedure. If you are lining up the speakers to some other
object or molding in the room, make sure you consider the size
of the baffle flange which extends beyond the mounting hole on
all four sides.
3. Mark the hole. A template for setting the hole is provided in the
box (along with two paint mask inserts for use when painting).
Position the template in the desired position and pencil an
outline on the wall.
4. Cutting 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 pen-
ciled mounting hole with a drywall saw. Cut at a 45° angle
towards the inside of the hole . Cutting the small (See Diagram 2)
hole at this angle will make drywall repair much easier as the
piece cut out can be installed neatly back into the hole. Once
you have determined there aren’t any obstructions in your
desired mounting location, start cutting the finished hole at a
90 angle to the wall surface.°
5. Add insulation. If the area in the wall is not already insulated,
add an adequate amount of insulation material to fill the cavity.
If the insulation material used is faced with foil or paper, posi-
tion the foil or paper away from the speaker.

Ideal Placement
Your Wall Series speakers come from the factory with the tweeter
facing straight out from the baffle. This will result in the overall
smoothest response. However, depending on your particular pri-
mary listening area, room acoustics, ceiling height, or personal
preference, you may find the sound more pleasing by pointing the
tweeters in a particular direction. If additional treble is desired in
the primary listening area, point the tweeter towards that area;
and if less treble is required, point the tweeter away. When used
in a home theater environment as side or rear channel speakers,
the best result will be obtained by pointing the tweeters toward an
adjacent wall. Push gently at the edge of the tweeter to point it in
the desired direction. (See Diagram 3) CAUTION: Avoid touching
metal dome tweeters, as damage may occur (W680 & W800).
Tweeter Adjustment (W680 & W800):
The switch labeled TREBLE allows for 3dB of treble adjustment.
Your speakers were shipped with the treble switch in the “-” posi-
tion, providing the most linear frequency response. If you desire
more treble, move the switch to the “+” position, and the tweeter
will play 3dB higher. To return to the neutral setting, push the
switch back to the “-” position. (See Diagram 4)
Woofer Adjustment (W680 & W800):
The switch labeled BASS allows for 3dB of bass adjustment.
Your speakers were shipped with the bass set to “-”. This setting
provides the flattest bass frequency response. If you desire more
bass, push the switch to the “+” position and the bass will play
3dB higher. To return to the neutral setting, push the switch back
to the “-” position. (See Diagram 4)

SPEAKER ADJUSTMENTS
The unique integral six-foot mounting system incorporated into
each Wall Series speaker allows for a quick installation by following
these easy steps:
1. Remove the grille. It may be necessary to push one or two of
the mounting screws and its attached foot towards the baffle
and against the inside surface of the grille to force the grille
out of its retaining groove.
2. Attach the speaker cable (observing the proper polarity with
your amplifier, + to + and - to -). Make sure the left channel
of the amplifier is connected to the left speaker, and the right
channel is connected to the right speaker.
3. Make sure the mounting feet are turned inward to clear the
opening, and insert the speaker into the wall. Position the
speaker into the hole.
Note: The flange of the speaker is designed to flex and con-
form to any small imperfections in the wall’s surface. Tighten
the six screws on the front of the baffle only enough to make
the flange become snug against the wall. As you tighten the
screws, the feet will automatically flip into an outward position
(See Diagram 5), thereby clamping the drywall between the feet
and the flange. CAUTION: Over-tightening 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 in the speaker baffle.

If you plan to paint your speakers, we recommend that it be done
prior to installation. If you plan to paint your speakers sometime in
the future, it is best to remove them by simply reversing the steps
for “SPEAKER INSTALLATION” on page 2.
If it is necessary to paint the speakers when they are in the wall,
the paint masks provided in the carton must be installed between
the grille and flange while they are being painted with the wall.
Before painting your speakers, remove the material under the
grilles. Once the speakers have 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 the sound quality of the speakers.
Proficient Audio Systems recommends only light spray painting
using 5 parts thinning agent to 1 part paint.
