When properly installed, these speakers will provide you with years of outdoor entertainment pleasure. To get the most out of your new speakers, please read this manual thoroughly before you begin installation.
Types of wire Speaker Installation Color-coded, 14/4 direct-burial speaker wire is recommended. 1. Place the 8 satellites and 1 subwoofer in their approximate final locations. NOTE: Please refer to the wiring chart below to determine which size wire to use over a given distance. 2. Dig a 4” to 5” trench to run the speaker wires in. 3. Starting at the amp location or wire connection point, run the speaker wire through the trench to the first speaker location.

Wire Strippers that will accommodate up to 12 gauge wire. 2. Round Cable Stripper (Needed when using 14/4 direct burial wire.) 3. Wire Ties 1. Pull the 14/4 wire on the spool to the furthest speaker location. Leave the wire attached to the spool until the last speaker has been connected. 2.
4. Use a wire tie to keep the wire loop intact and act as a strain relief. 6. Strip off 1 inch (25.4mm) of insulation on Red and Black wires to expose the copper conductor. Combine and twist the Red wires from the amplifier, the first satellite and the wire run running to the next speaker in a clock-wise motion. 7. Secure these three wires using the provided Silicone Filled Wire Nuts.

At the next speaker, repeat steps 2 – 7 for the left channel using the White (+) and Green (-) leaving the Red (+) and Black (-) wires intact. 4. Take the spool back to the starting point and pull a second 2-conductor wire to the furthest speaker location. See figure 3. 10.
Subwoofer Wire Connection The subwoofer features a dual voice coil driver with 4 wires, one pair for each of the amplifier channels. Red (+) and Black (-) are used for the right channel, White (+) and Green (-) for the Left channel. The subwoofer can be connected at any point along the daisy chain e.g. beginning, middle, end or anywhere in-between. However, locating the subwoofer mid-way in the daisy chain will produce an equal amount of bass for the speakers on either side of the sub.
