INSTALLATION
Hooking Up The Wires
•
For shorter distances up to 25 feet, 18 gauge speaker wire will be sufficient. For longer distances, 16
gauge speaker wire should be used. The speaker terminals will accommodate up to a 14-gauge speaker
wire. Leave two feet of extra speaker wire at the speaker end to make installation easier. Do not use
nails, staples or other metal objects to secure the speaker wire. The resulting short-circuit could affect
your system’s performance & could also damage components in your system, especially the amplifier.
To minimize interference & external hum keep the speaker wires away from other electrical wires and
cables.

When connecting the speaker wires it is important to retain
the correct polarity. Be sure that the wire attached to the
“+”, red, positive, or hot terminal on your ELAC speaker
connects to the “+”, red, positive, or hot terminal on the other
component.

Mounting the speaker
•
Yes, you will be cutting a hole in the wall or ceiling. With the right tools and a little extra preparation &
care, installing these in-wall speakers can be quick and easy.

Carefully cut out the hole drawn on the paper template. (Note: the inside rectangle (or circle) of the
template can be used to shield the woofer while you paint the frame.)

•
Next, position the template where you have chosen to mount the speaker and trace along the inside
edge. Make your cuts along this line. A utility knife will make clean cuts in drywall. A keyhole saw or
electric jigsaw may also be used. Do your best to keep the cuts neat, however the frame will overlap the
hole to hide any rough edges.

At this point, with the wall open, run the speaker cables into position leaving about two feet of extra
cable exposed at the opening. Strip the ends of the cable back by approximately ¼ inch (6mm) to expose
the bare wire.
