2-Way In-Wall Speaker System  
PREPARING THE  
LOCATION  
Be sure the mounting surface is be-  
1
tween /2 and 11/4 inches thick, and  
that there is at least 5 inches of clear-  
ance behind the mounting surface. Al-  
so, be sure no wall studs or other  
objects will block the back of the  
speaker and no AC wiring is near.  
Your Optimus 2-Way In-Wall Speaker  
System features a 61/2-inch driver, ad-  
justable wide-angle monopole tweet-  
er, and crossover for rich lows and  
crisp, clean highs. It can handle 50  
watts of amplifier power.  
Follow these steps to prepare the  
mounting location.  
1. Remove the cardboard mask from  
inside the supplied template and  
keep it for later use as a paint  
mask.  
You can mount your speaker almost  
anywhere, making it ideal for use in a  
surround-sound system. The speaker  
mounts flush with the ceiling or wall,  
and you can paint its frame and grille  
to match the room’s decor. It is a  
tasteful addition to any room.  
2. Use the template to mark the posi-  
tion for the mounting hole at the  
selected location.  
3. Cut the mounting hole with a dry-  
wall or keyhole saw.  
You need these items to mount your  
speaker:  
PAINTING THE FRAME  
AND GRILLE  
• Drywall or keyhole saw  
• Wire stripper  
If you choose to paint the frame and  
grille, remove the grille by carefully in-  
serting a small screwdriver between  
the top part of the frame and grille  
then carefully pulling up on the grille.  
Then place the cardboard mask over  
the driver and tweeter before painting.  
• Phillips screwdriver  
• Pencil  
• 18- to 20-gauge wire  
Note: You can find wire and wire strip-  
pers at your local RadioShack store.

2. Be sure the mounting tabs are in  
place (parallel with the edge of  
speaker, not pointing outward),  
then plug the speaker into the  
mounting hole.  
• Keep the speaker dry. If it gets  
wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liq-  
uid can contain minerals that can  
corrode electronic circuits.  
• Keep the speaker away from dust  
and dirt which can cause prema-  
ture wear of parts.  
• Wipe the speaker frame occasion-  
ally with a damp cloth to keep it  
looking new. Do not use harsh  
chemicals, cleaning solvents, or  
strong detergents.  
3. Use the four supplied mounting  
screws to secure the mounting  
tabs to the wall or ceiling.  
Caution: You might permanently  
damage your speaker’s grille or  
speaker elements by cleaning them  
with a vacuum cleaner. Instead, use a  
feather duster or soft cloth.  
4. If desired, tilt the tweeter toward  
the listening area. You can tilt the  
tweeter two steps up or down.  
Caution: When you move the  
tweeter, do not touch the thin,  
vibrating part. Hold only the outer,  
hard plastic portion.
