powerful magnets on the speaker frame. Place the grille
against the speaker and the magnets will hold it firmly in
place. When properly installed, the grille flange should make
contact with the wall all the way around the speaker.

Speaker Adjustments
Pivoting Tweeter
All Visual Performance Series 6” in-wall speakers have a pivot-
ing tweeter that allows you to direct sound towards or away from
the listening area, depending on how the speakers are being
used:
• If you’re using the speakers in stereo or as the front left/center/
right speakers in a home theater, pivot the tweeter directly
towards the listening area. This will help the sound from the
speakers blend into a solid soundstage even if the speakers are
widely separated.
• If you’re using the speakers as surround channel speakers in a
home theater, you can create a more diffuse, spacious sur-
round effect by pivoting the tweeter towards a wall or
window, away from the listeners.
To Pivot the Tweeter:
Apply light pressure to the
plastic ring around the out-
side edge of the tweeter
dome, as shown in
Figure 9.
Take care not to touch or
apply pressure to the tweeter
dome itself.
