Remove the grille from the
speaker frame by pulling on
the paper tab. If the tab is
missing, to avoid scratching
the grille or baffle you may
unfold a paper clip, insert the
straight end through one of
the holes in the grille, and
gently pull up.

Cut the drywall.
Note: Always allow at least
one-half inch between a wall
stud and the speaker cutout or
the locking tabs will not be able
to swivel into place.
Connect the speaker wires
to the speaker. Model IS6DT
requires two sets of speaker
wires, one for each channel.
Place the frame assembly
in the wall.
Screw down each of the four
Phillips-head screws. The
locking tabs will swivel into
place and secure the unit to
the rear surface of the drywall.
Replace the metal grille.
Determine the correct speaker
location.
Note: Remove the inner template,
which is the paint shield, at the
perforation. Use the outer tem-
plate when cutting the drywall.
Performance Integrator loud-
speakers feature unique
swivel mounts for the tweet-
ers, enabling you to aim the
very directional high frequen-
cies toward the listening posi-
tion, at ear-level height.
Before installing the speaker
grille, gently press on the
outer edge of the tweeter
mount to adjust the position
of the tweeter. The tweeter
will not swivel more than 15
degrees in any direction; do
not attempt to force it to move
any further. You may also
rotate the tweeter to orient
the JBL logo as desired.
The dual tweeters of the
IS6DT speaker may be
swiveled independently.
Optimum imaging will be
obtained by aiming the
tweeters to the left and right
of the listening position, at
ear-level height, if your
application permits.
