Where To Place Your In-Wall Speakers
Placement can make all the difference in how your speakers sound, and how easy they will be to
install. Carefully consider where your speakers should be positioned. For optimum performance
in a center-channel application, speaker should be mounted directly above or below TV or moni-
tor. For optimum performance when used in right and left main listening positions, speakers
should be mounted to the left and right of the main listening position and a minimum of 8 to 10
feet apart (See Fig. 2). Avoid mounting speakers in stud cavities containing electrical wiring, heat-
ing ducts, water pipes, etc. Make sure the wall or ceiling materials are sturdy enough to support
the weight of the speakers.

Note: When the NX-552CLR is mounted horizontally in a center-channel application, modification
may need to be made to the stud cavity to accommodate speaker.

Adjustable Tweeter
(Fig. 3)
The tweeter in the NX-552CLR speaker may be adjusted, allowing you to tailor the speaker to
better fit the listening area. The overall smoothest response is achieved with the tweeter facing
straight out: however, you may find the sound more pleasing by aiming the tweeter toward a
particular listening area. To adjust the tweeter angle, apply pressure to the edge of the tweeter
with your thumb or finger.

Speaker Installation In Existing Construction
(See Fig. 4)
Once you have selected the location for your speakers, you are ready to install them.
You will need the following:
• Stud Finder
• Drill & Drill Bits
• Wire Cutter/ Strippers
• Pencil
• Utility Knife or Drywall Saw
• Small Level
• Masking Tape
• Phillips Screwdriver
• Speaker Wire
NXG recommends the use of 16-gauge wire minimum. For wire options consult your retailer or
custom audio contractor.

1. NXG In-Wall Speakers are designed to be installed in the wall area between studs. Using a stud
finder, make sure you are between two studs. Using the supplied template and a level to ensure your
template is straight, tape the template to the wall and lightly trace around the inside with a pencil.

2. Cut the hole using your drywall saw. You may want to start with a small hole in the center of
the outline. This will allow you to check for any obstructions that may exist behind the desired
location. CAUTION: Be certain electrical wiring, water pipes or heating ducts do not interfere in
the planned installation areas prior to drilling or cutting the wall.

location. CAUTION: Be certain electrical wiring, water pipes or heating ducts do not interfere in
the planned installation areas prior to drilling or cutting the wall.
3. Run speaker wire from your amplifier or speaker switching device to the speaker location.
4. Carefully remove the grille and inner grille backing. (Note: The open cell foam inner grille
backing is designed to hide speaker components from view and may be removed if desired.) If
you like the standard white finish of your NXG speakers, skip to step 5, but if if you want your
speakers to blend in with a colored wall or ceiling, now is the time to paint your speaker’s outer
frame and perforated grille. (Remove the foam inner grille backing and put it aside in a clean and
dust free area for later reinstallation if desired.) The speaker’s outer surface will accept ordinary
latex wall paint or aerosol spray paint. Because the speaker baffle surface behind the grille should
remain unpainted, you will need to cover this area with the supplied cardboard paint mask. Cover
the speaker’s interior black surface, woofer and tweeter. Paint the outer speaker frame and grille
separately. (Grille painting hint: Use a paint roller that is nearly out of paint to first paint the inside
of the grille, then the outside. This will avoid paint filling the grille perforations.)

5. Attach the wire to the input terminals on the rear of the speaker. Remember to maintain proper
polarity with the amplifier by attaching the positive (+) lead to the red terminal and the negative
(-) lead to the black terminal.
