OWNER’S MANUAL
Fully Pivoting High Fidelity In-Ceiling
Loudspeaker
AIM7 SERIES
AIM7 Two / AIM7 Three / AIM7 Four / AIM7 Five
Congratulations on purchasing SpeakerCraft’s AIM7 Series of architectural loudspeakers. The AIM7 Series
features fully pivoting woofers and independently pivoting tweeters, allowing the entire speaker to be
aimed toward the listener.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
When following the below recommendations, please
keep in mind that placement is always in the ceiling.
AIM7 speakers can be used as a pair for stereo listening,
or for all five channels of a home theater system: front
left and right, center, and rear left and right.
SpeakerCraft recommends the use of a qualified custom
installation specialist when installing your AIM7 speakers.
If you need assistance in locating an installer, please
contact SpeakerCraft at 1-800-448-0976.
1. Determine Your Primary Listening Area
The area where you will most likely be sitting
when listening to your speakers is your primary
listening area.
2. Placement of Stereo Pair / Front
Channels for Home Theater
Consider how far apart the speakers should be. To
do this, think of your listening area as one tip of a
triangle with each leg of the triangle being equal.
See speakers FL (front left) and FR (front right) in
Figure 1. Place the speakers as close as possible to
the two points they represent on the triangle.
If the speakers are to be part of a home theater
speaker system, they should be placed as close as
possible to the area above the screen. However, in
some cases it may be better to place the speakers
farther away from the screen in order to maximize
speaker separation. An example of a case when this
would be desirable is when the television is posi-
tioned directly in a corner (See Figure 2).

3. Placement of Center Channel for Home Theater
Place the center channel speaker in line between the front left and right speaker directly above the screen.
See C (center) in Figure 1.
4. Placement of Rear Channels for Home Theater
Rear channels should be placed behind the listening area. See RL (rear left) and RR (rear right) in Figure 1.
5. Checking for Obstructions
Before confirming the placement of the speakers, you should carefully consider the location of ceiling joists, electrical,
plumbing and other fixtures that may get in the way. If you are installing the speakers into an existing ceiling, you can
locate obstructions by noting the placement of fixtures and, if possible, gaining access to an attic or crawl space for
further analysis. A good stud-finder, found at any building supply store, will help you determine where the joists are
located in the ceiling.
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Prior to the actual installation of the speakers, it will be necessary to run cables to the speaker location. See your Authorized
SpeakerCraft dealer for more information on cable installation. After the cable has been installed, you are ready to mount
the speakers.
Preparation for and mounting of the speakers can happen at two different stages. If you are building a new ceiling, follow
the section titled INSTALLATION PREPARATION - NEW CONSTRUCTION. If you are placing the speakers into an existing
ceiling, follow INSTALLATION PREPARATION - FINISHED CEILING. There are different considerations for each application.
Please carefully follow the recommendations for your application.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION - NEW CONSTRUCTION
When installing the speakers into a newly built ceiling, please follow these instructions carefully:
1. Determine Placement
Determine where in the ceiling the speakers will be placed using the recommendations under SPEAKER PLACEMENT.
Pay careful attention to the section on avoiding obstructions.
2. Mount InstaLLock Bracket
For best results, mount the SpeakerCraft InstaLLock New Construction Brackets for the AIM7 Series (Part No. BKT90611)
following the instructions included with the bracket.
3. The Location is Ready for Drywall
The bracket provides a stable opening around which the drywall installer can cut out an opening, providing a perfect
location for installation of the AIM7 Series speaker.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION - FINISHED CEILING
When the speakers will be installed into a finished ceiling, please follow these instructions carefully:
1. Determine Placement
Determine where in the ceiling the speakers will be placed using the recommendations under SPEAKER PLACEMENT.
Pay careful attention to the section on avoiding obstructions.
2. Locate Obstructions
Find the joists nearest the desired speaker mounting location. The use of a good stud-finder tool is highly recomend-
ed for this procedure. Make sure that there are no joists or obstructions where you plan to install the speaker. Read
“Checking for Obstructions” under the section SPEAKER PLACEMENT.
3. Trace Template
Place the cut-out template at the location you have decided to place the speaker. Use a few pieces of tape or small tacks
to hold the template in place. Trace an outline on the ceiling with a pencil.
AIM7 Owner’s Manual Page 3
4. Cut the Hole
CAUTION: This is the most important part of the entire
installation. If you are not certain whether or not an
obstruction exists 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. Cut at
a 45˚ angle towards the inside of the hole (See Figure
3). Cutting the small 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 are no obstructions in your desired mounting
location, start cutting the finished hole at a 90˚ angle to
the ceiling surface.
SPEAKER INSTALLATION
Note: Your AIM7 Series speakers may have come with the
optional Jawz™ speaker wire connector. Before using Jawz™,
please follow the instructions included with the connector.
The unique integral four foot mounting system incorporated into
each speaker allows for quick installation following these easy
steps:
1. If the grille is on the speaker, remove it. 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 ceiling. Position
the speaker into the hole. Note: The flange of the speaker
is designed to flex and conform to any small imperfections
in the ceiling surface. Tighten the 4 screws on the front of
the baffle only enough to make the flange become snug
against the ceiling. As you tighten the screws, the feet will
automatically flip into an outward position (See Figure 4),
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.
PAINTING THE SPEAKERS
If you plan to paint your speakers, we recommend that it be done prior to installation. If you decide to paint your speakers
sometime in the future, it is best to remove them by simply reversing the steps for SPEAKER INSTALLATION listed above.
When painting the speakers, the paint masks provided in the carton must be installed in place of the grille. The grilles can
also be painted. However, great care should be taken not to clog the holes, as this will greatly reduce the sound quality of
the speakers. Before painting the grilles, remove the material under grille. Place this material back in place once the grille
has been painted. SpeakerCraft recommends only light spray painting using 5 parts thinning agent to 1 part paint. Do not
paint the grilles while they are attached to the speaker. If it is necessary to paint the material under the grille, follow the
same procedure used to paint the grilles.
