INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
Before you start digging a trench:
• Test EACH speaker prior to installation.
• Verify that the proposed area is accessible and not prone to ooding or standing water. It is also
important to ensure your speakers cannot be easily damaged, kicked, or hit.
• Take into consideration the overall landscape/garden design and positioning in relation to
listening area.
