Each speaker requires one speaker wire set consisting of a positive 
and negative wire. Eaton recommends using an 18 gauge wire or 
larger for the best quality sound.

Speaker cable should be run to each speaker location prior to speaker 
installation. In new construction applications, run the speaker wire to 
the speaker locations prior to drywalling.

 

Before you install your speakers you should carefully consider their 
location to ensure the best quality sound. Make sure to note the loca-
tion of lighting fixtures, electrical wiring, plumbing, HVAC ducting, or 
any other possible obstructions.

Once you have selected the area for installation, locate the studs or 
joists nearest to the desired location. By marking the location of the 
stud or joist first, you can avoid cutting into it as you cut the speaker 
hole. A speaker cutout template is included to help you measure cut-
out dimensions.

Position the template into the desired location and outline the 
speaker opening. If you are still not sure of possible obstructions, cut 
a small hole in the center of your mounting location. This small hole 
will allow you to check for obstructions behind the surface prior to 
cutting out the entire speaker hole.

If there are no problems with your mounting location, proceed to cut 
out the outlined hole. If the area where the speaker will be placed is 
not already insulated, Eaton suggests adding insulation, Dacron, or 
some other sound dampening material. If you add insulation with a 
foil layer, make sure to mount the foil side away from the speaker 
magnet.

 

Speakers placed into the ceiling should be mounted above or as close 
to the listening area as possible. Take furniture arrangements into 
consideration when finalizing your speaker locations. The tweeters 
located in the speakers can be adjusted to point towards the listening 
area of the room.
