Phase Technology Speaker Folheto

Be certain that you can get the speaker wire to the locations that you plan to mount the speaker 
systems. Check with your Phase Technology dealer for their recommendation for the best wire for your 
application but we suggest that you use a minimum of AWG #16/4 for the speakers. This will allow you 
to have a pair of wires for both the left or right speaker and a separate 2 pairs of wires for the 2 center 
channel speakers. Pre-run your speaker wire to the determined locations and be sure to leave about 2 
feet of extra wire for the final speaker installation. Be certain to check for wall construction in the 
desired mounting locations as mentioned above as well as the required hardware for the mounting 
brackets. If the flat panel monitor is not yet mounted to the wall, mount the display first before mounting 
the speakers. 
 
Step 2 
Using the mounting bracket as a guide measure equal distance from the top of the display and the 
bottom of the display to the ends of the bracket. You need to allow a minimum of 1 ¼” from the edge of 
the bracket side to the edge of the monitor so the speaker will clear the monitor when mounted to the 
wall. Use a level to make sure you are mounting the bracket straight. With the bracket positioned in the 
desired location use a pencil to mark the 4 mounting holes on the wall for the bracket mounting screws. 
Drill the wall and install your anchors and screw the brackets to the wall.  
 
Step 3 
The pair of 
Arte’ speakers are sent as a matched mirror image pair of speakers. This means there is a 
dedicated left speaker and a dedicated right speaker. There is a label on the rear of the speaker that 
says “THIS END UP” that indicates the correct orientation of the speaker when it is mounted. There 
are 2 terminal assemblies on the rear of the speaker cabinet. The upper one indicated by the label is for 
the left/right channel input wires. The bottom terminal is for the center channel speaker wire connection. 
Connect the speaker wires to the correct terminals observing the polarity indicated on the terminal. 
Strip about ½” of insulation from the wires and separate the wires as necessary. If you are using other 
wire lugs or connectors, attach them at this time to the bare wire. Unscrew the binding post terminals 
and slip the stripped end of the wire through the hole in the metal post. Secure the wire in the post by 
tightening the binding post terminal nut down on the bare wire or lug. Make sure the nut is tight and the 
wire will not pull out of the terminal by lightly pulling back on the wire. 
 
 
Step 4 
The sturdy steel wall brackets supplied with the speakers are designed to attach to the key-way metal 
slotted mounts on the rear of the speaker cabinet. Simply align the posts on the brackets with the holes 
in the keyhole hangers and allow the speaker to slip down over the head of the bracket pins. Tuck the 
speaker wire in behind the speaker cabinet and if necessary neaten up the wire with the use of tie 
wraps. 
 
Step 5 
The 
Arte’ speakers are designed as a front LCR system that operates from a single pair of speaker 
cabinets. As such the speaker hookup is treated the same as hooking up separate Left, Right and 
Center speakers to a home theater receiver. The only difference is that you have 2 pairs of wires that 
are connected to the amplifier’s center channel speaker output connection. The left and right pair of 
wires are connected to their respective left and right speaker output terminals on the amplifier. Be 
certain to observe the speaker polarity and refer to your amplifier manual for further information on 
connecting your speakers. 
 
Step 6  
Since the Arte’ speakers form the front 3 speakers in a home theater system for flat panel displays they 
are to be used and set up as you would normally for any 5.1 to 7.2 surround sound system for balance 
and level adjustments. The amplifier should be set to the small speaker mode for best performance and 
the subwoofer setting should be set to 100Hz. We recommend the use of our Phase Technology 
subwoofers and surround speakers for complimenting your installation.
