Unpacking the System
Carefully unpack the system. If there is any sign of damage from transit, report it immediately to your dealer and/or delivery
service. Keep the shipping carton and packing materials for future use.
Placement Options
The SoundWare speaker can be wall mounted using the supplied hardware or simply placed on a shelf. If it is being placed on
a shelf you can simply attach the adhesive-backed rubber feet and connect the speaker wires.
Attaching the Pivoting Ball Mount
If you plan to use the mounting brackets you must attach the pivoting ball mount to
the speaker. Use the four supplied flat-head machine screws as shown in the illustration.
Mounting the Wall Bracket
Brackets for mounting the speakers on a flat wall or in a corner are supplied. One thing
that is not supplied is hardware to attach the bracket to the wall. Why? Because there
are so many different kinds of surfaces on which the speakers could be mounted. It could be
basic drywall which may or may not have a stud behind it. It could be a wood panel or even a
concrete foundation wall. There is no one type of fastener that we could supply that would work
in all the possible situations. So taking into account the surface the speaker is being mounted on,
acquire the appropriate type of fasteners. You’ll need four for each speaker. If you’re not sure what type of fastener to use, take
the mounting bracket to a friendly hardware store, tell them about the wall you’re mounting the speaker on, and ask them to
recommend an appropriate fastener. Keep in mind the weight of the speaker.
Speaker Wires
For short runs of less then 20 feet or so you can use 18 gauge wire. For runs of more than 50 feet use 16 gauge wire.
Speaker Connection Polarity
All the speakers in a system must be hooked up with the same polarity or “in phase.” The terminals on the SoundWare
speakers are color coded to identify the “+” (red) and “–” (black) connections. All wire is marked in some way so you can tell
one conductor from the other. The marking may be a ridge molded into the insulation of one conductor, or it may have a
stripe on the insulation, or it may be color coded. Use the marking on the speaker wires to be sure that the “+” terminal of the
amplifier is connected to the “+” terminal of the speaker, and “–” is connected to “–”, at every connection.
Connecting the Speakers
Separate the two conductors of the wire. Remove about /” of insulation from the
end of the wire. Push down on the top of the terminal to open the hole for the
wire. Insert the wire and release the terminal to secure it. Be sure there are no loose
strands of wire. Note: there is a channel in the back of the speaker for the wire (for
wires up to 18 gauge), to keep it neat and out of sight.
Mounting the Speakers
Once you have the bracket mounted and the speaker connected the rest is easy.
1 Put the rounded end of the speaker mount in the bracket and slide it down to
lock it in place.
2 Optional – Insert and tighten the screw to secure everything.
