INSTALLATION:
Speaker Placement
Before installing your OWI speakers, consider the placement carefully, taking into effect the location of
electrical, plumbing and other fixtures.
Placement in Ceiling
OWI speakers should be ideally located above the primary listening area.
Placement in Wall
Optimum sound will be achieved when your OWI speakers are installed at ear level or slightly higher and the
listening area is no closer to the speakers than the distance between the speakers themselves.
Mounting your OWI Speakers
Determine the best area to mount your OWI speakers. It will be necessary to run your speaker wires to that
location. This location must be free of obstructions, such as electrical conduits, HVAC ducts, or water lines.
Be sure the mounting surface is between 3/8 and 1 1/4 inches thick, and there is at least a 2 3/4 inch clearance
behind the mounting surface and no wall studs or other objects block the back of the speaker.
Remove the round cardboard disc from the template supplied and keep it for later use as a paint mask, if you
decide to paint your speakers.
