Sonance extreme xsstr Guía Del Usuario

Speakers and grilles can be painted before installation, which will

eliminate the "paint scar" if the speaker needs to be removed for

service. Speakers may also be painted after installation, but before the

grilles are attached. All speakers come from the factory fitted with a

plastic "paint plug." Use the paint plug to protect the drivers while the

flange is being painted with the ceiling.

Sonance suggests always painting the grilles separate from the

speaker. The grilles may be lightly sprayed with thin paint (5 parts

thinning agent to 1 part paint), but be careful not to plug the holes.

Too much paint will adversely affect the sound of the speaker.

Once the grilles and flange are painted and dry, remove the paint plug

from the flange and install the grilles.

Make sure the Roto-Lock clamps are in

the full clockwise position so that all the

clamps are tucked within the cutout

border. Insert the speaker into the hole

in the ceiling.

Note: The maximum clamp thickness is

1-1/4" (32mm)

Tighten the four screws on the front of

the baffle. The Roto-Lock clamps will

rotate into position automatically and

begin clamping. When you notice

resistance on the four screws, the

speaker has been clamped successfully.

The flange is designed to flex and

conform to any small imperfections in

the wall surface. The screws should not

be tightened so far that the flange bows

out.

Remove the paint plug from the

speaker. Attach the wire from your

amplifier to the terminals on the back of

the speaker. Double check the polarity

of the speaker wires, amplifier + to

speaker + and amplifier - to speaker -.

Proper polarity is critical in home theater

installations.

Note: See Connecting the XSSTR for

proper connection of this speaker.

After the speaker is installed, and all the

adjustments shown to the right are

completed, the grille can be installed.

Insert about half of the grille into the

groove at the edge of the speaker.

Gently fit the remaining half of the grill

into the speaker by working your hands

around the speaker fitting the grille into

the groove as you go along.

Note: The torque applied to the

mounting screws can be adjusted for

proper grille fit.

The XSSTR produces the left and right audio signal from one speaker.

The crossover on the back of the speaker, shown below, features two

pairs of push-to-connect terminals.

You can connect the left and right signal to either pair of terminals.

Make sure when you connect this speaker that you do not combine or

mix up the positive and negative wires from each channel. Damage

may occur to your receiver or amplifier if the wires are not connected

correctly.
