• Once you have cut the hole, pull the speaker wire
out of
the
hole and connect the speaker. Strip
'/z"
inch (12 mrn) of insulation from each of the two
conductors of the wire to expose the bare metal
.
and
twist each of the conductors into a single
unfrayed strand. Note that one of
the
terminals
on
the rear of each speaker
is
marked red
(+)
and
the other black
(-).
Make certain that you connect
the wire from the red terminal
(+) of your amplifi-
er or receiver to the
red
terminal (+)
on
your
speaker
and
the wire from the black terminal
(-)
of your amplifier or receiver to the black terminal
(-)
on
your speaker. Most wire has some indicator
(such
as
color-coding, ribbing or writing)
on
one
of the two conductors to help you maintain
consistency
[Figure
lla).
In the case of the
Oi
6.SSTR
single speaker stereo model, both left
and right channel speaker wires are connected
to
the speaker
[Figure
llb)
..
• Push down
on
the top of the terminal to reveal
the wire hole in the side of the terminal post and
insert the wire into the hole
[Figure
12].
Release
the pressure
on
the terminal
to
secure the wire.
• Loosen the rotating lock arms by turning the lock
arm screws
on
the front of the speaker counter
clockwise
Ji
to
1 tum, just enough to allow the lock
arm to move
freely.
[Figure
13).
Make sure
that
the
rotating lock arms are flipped inwards
[Figure
14)
so
that
your speaker fits into your cutout.

• Make sure the material into which you plan to
mount
the speakers
(plaster, drywall, paneling, stone, etc.) can support the weight of
the speakers
(see
spedfication page
for
the weight of your model).
• Make sure the locations you select
do
not
conceal studs, electrical
wiring or plumbing. Prior
to
installation, hold the speaker with
grille
on
in your chosen
location to make sure it safely
clears obstacles such
as
studs,
comers, beams, lighting
fixtures
and
door/window
frames.
Your
cutout must
be at least
2"
(50 mrn) from
adjoining walls or ceiling,
internal studs or plumbing.
• Using the supplied template,
trace the installation location
with a pencil.
You
can do
this by holding the template
in your preferred location
and
tracing around it. In the
case of the rectangular
models
(Di 5.5S
and
Di
6.5S)
use a bubble level
to
square
and
level
the
template.

• Carefully cut the hole
with the appropriate cutting
tool for your wall or ceiling
material. Start the hole by
drilling a hole
on
the inside
of the tracing (with the drill
bit just inside the line). Use
this hole
to
insert the saw
or knife
and
begin cutting
[Figure
10).
The holes
for
the
Oi
3.5R and
Oi4.SR
must
be
cut very precisely
as
their
flanges are only
3/
8
"
(9.5
mm)
wide.
We
recommend using
hole saws to cut the holes
for
these models - 3

for
the Di
3.SR
and
a
4'/z"
for
the
Oi
4.SR.
