Installation Instructions

PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION INSTALLATION

Pre-wire or Pre-construction

Locate all obstructions (AC wiring, plumbing, duct work, studs, and joists).

Route the speaker wire to the speaker location avoiding all obstacles.

Lyric Speakers offers New Construction Brackets (Rough-In Brackets) that can

be fastened to the adjacent studs. Once the dry wall is installed, the opening

is cut out. There are tie-off molded into the bracket for speaker wire tie-off to

keep the wire from being lost during construction.

Retroﬁt Installation

Locate existing pipes, duct work, and AC wiring before cutting any holes in the

ceiling.

1. Center the cardboard template between adjacent joists, avoiding all wiring,

pipes, duct work, and lightly mark the outline with a pencil.

2. Cut the hole with the appropriate tool.

Note:

Run four-conductor wiring

for dual tweeter speakers.

1. Connect the speaker wire to the speaker terminals:

• Leave about 2' (60 cm) of wire extending through the ceiling cut-out.

• Pull the conductors apart so the last two inches are separated and remove

1/2" (13 mm) of insulation from the end of each conductor.

• Twist the strands in each conductor into tight spirals.

• Attach the speaker wires to the red and black speaker terminals. Connect

the Positive (+) conductor to the Red terminal and the Negative (-)

conductor to the Black terminal. Make sure that no stray strands of wire are

touching the other conductor or terminal.

• Dual Tweeter speakers have four terminals; Right(+), (-) and Left(+), (-).

Run an extra pair of conductors and observe proper polarity when making

connections.

2. Center the speaker in the cutout. Rotate the frame as needed before

tightening the screws. Tighten the screws equally until the clamps secure the

frame. Do not overtighten.

3. Attach the magnetic grille.
