INSTALLATION INTO EXISTING WALLS OR CEILINGS
Turn your receiver/amplifier OFF before connecting speakers. This will avoid
damage which may result from accidental shorting of the speaker cable.
When using the VC-150 in an outdoor environment it must be enclosed in a weather-
proof box designed for electrical switches (see dealer).
1. Mounting
Place the mounting template onto the wall or ceiling. X-treme Moisture Applications
TM
Versions:
Be sure to install into a bulkhead. Cut a hole as indicated on template. (Fig. 4a or 4b)

For optimum performance, loosely place
two pieces, 8˝ (20 cm) to 12˝ (30 cm) long, of standard fiberglass insulation in the wall.
R-12 for 2˝x (5 cm x 10 cm) walls or R-20 for 2˝x (5 cm x 15 cm) walls. Place one piece just
above and the other just below mounting hole.
a half-thick piece of fiberglass insulation, the same height as the speaker, in the wall right behind
the mounting hole.
In-Ceiling Mounting
For optimum performance, loosely place
one piece of standard fiberglass (to fit joist size) above the speaker extending 12˝ (30 cm) or more
beyond the speaker between the joists.
(for taller joists) fibreglass insulation directly against the joists on either side of the mounting hole.

and bass performance. Connect the hook-up cable to the speaker input terminal on the crossover
board. Connect the red (+) amplifier to the red (+) speaker terminal, and the black (-) amplifier terminal
to the black (-) speaker terminal. Fasten cable to bracket with wire tie (optional). (Fig. 8a)

Reference LCR (Left/Center/Right)
speakers in a horizontal configuration in a typical stud wall (16˝ on center) will require additional
framing. Please contact a qualified installer (see your dealer).
For optimal sound reproduction the use of high-quality speaker cable is essential. When using your speakers in
a distributed audio application, with multiple speakers per amplifier channel (zone), we recommend the use of a
high-performance in-wall volume control such as the Paradigm
