FIGURE 4 USING THE SINGLE–DUAL INPUT SWITCH The Atrium65sdi has a unique Dual Input/Single Input Switch. Combined with its ingenius Dual Tweeter Array, this switch allows the Atrium65sdi to be used either as a single high performance stereo loudspeaker [figure 4], or the left-or-right speaker in a high performance stereo pair [figure 5]. How does it do it? Magic! No, just kidding.
PAINTING YOUR ATRIUM LOUDSPEAKERS PREPARING TO PAINT: You will need: • A spray can of primer paint (Krylon Sandable Spray Primer #1318, or equivalent). • A spray can of the paint of your choice. Choose exterior grade paint if you plan to use the speakers outdoors. • A paperclip or corkscrew (for removing the paintable grille) [figure 4]. 1. Separate the parts of the speaker. Remove the brackets and bracket knobs.
PAINTING THE GRILLE: PAINTING THE CABINET, BRACKET KNOBS AND BRACKET: 1. The grille of the Atrium speaker features an even, protective powder coating. This powder coating is an ideal primer. The grille features an engraved logo pod. You can mask this off or paint right over it. 1. Apply two thin coats of primer to the cabinet and knobs. The bracket does not require a primer. 2. When the primer is completely dry, apply the finish color [figure 7]. 3.
MOUNTING The Atrium’s bracket allows it to be mounted either horizontally or vertically and aimed to deliver the best possible sound in a variety of situations. Follow the steps below to safely secure the brackets and speakers. Installation of Atrium Series Loudspeakers requires basic skills in using tools such as a drill and screwdriver. If you are in doubt that you possess the necessary skills or tools, consult your Polk Audio dealer, or a professional installer. 1.
8. If speaker wire is being fed from a hole in the wall behind the bracket, pull this speaker wire through the hole in the bracket before mounting the bracket [figure 11]. 13. Once the speaker is mounted, the bracket knobs can be loosened to “aim” the speaker, and then hand-tightened to keep the speaker angled correctly [figure 14]. 9. Line up the bracket, attached to the speaker, so that the screw heads pass through the large center hole of the bracket’s keyhole slot. 14.
ALTERNATE SECURE MOUNTING METHODE D’INSTALLATION PLUS SOLIDE For more solid mounting, screw the bracket directly into a weight-bearing stud on the mounting surface. Place the screws securely in the smaller end of the keyhole slot. Do not leave screwheads protruding. Pour une installation plus solide, visez le support directement dans un montant portant du mur. Enfoncez les vis solidement à travers a partie rétrécie des fentes en trou de serrure et dans le montant.
MAKING THE CONNECTION LA CONNEXION For the best performance, use dedicated two-conductor, 16-gauge or thicker (descending number) audiophile-grade speaker wire, available at your authorized Polk Audio dealer. Measure enough wire to reach from your amplifier or receiver to each speaker, plus an additional 12" to allow moving the speakers or equipment without having to disconnect the wires.
USE THE ATRIUM65 SDI AS ONE HALF OF A STEREO PAIR OF ATRIUM65 SDI LOUDSPEAKERS. UTILISATION DE L’ATRIUM65SDI POUR LE CANAL GAUCHE OU DROIT D’UNE PAIRE D'ENCEINTES ATRIUM65SDI 1. With the Dual Input/Single Input Switch set to “Single Left or Right” [figure 18] connect the Left OR Right speaker wire output from your receiver to accessible terminals of the Atrium65SDI. 1. Réglez le commutateur d’une Atrium65SDI à «Single Left or Right» [figure 18].
SEALING THE CABINET WITH THE POWER PORT PLUG SCELLER L’ENCEINTE AVEC LE BOUCHON «POWER PORT PLUG» The Power Port bass vent on the Atrium60 is an enhanced design vent. It includes a Flared “Umbrella” Diffuser for nominal (not complete) waterproofing and a special Bugscreen Protector for keeping little critters out of the cabinet. The optional (included!) Power Port Plug seals the cabinet completely, creating a military spec waterproof cabinet, but with somewhat reduced bass response.
