Installation Getting Started
Installation
• In-wall installation should be located directly above the
listening area. In rooms larger than the bathroom or
closet, it is recommended to install additional speakers for
improved performance.
• You may install a bracket where you will be placing the
speaker prior to installing drywall. Once insulation and
drywall is installed, you may cut the speaker hole.
• Use a stud-nder to locate the nearest wood or metal
stud and keep in mind the bafe ange will protrude
outside of the mounting hole.
Painting The Wall Speakers
• It is recommended to paint your speaker before installing
into your wall, or reverse the steps of installation to
remove the speaker for easy painting. For painting the
installed speaker, please use the paint mask in place of the
grille. If painting the grille, do not paint while attached to
the speaker, and be careful to not clog the holes, which will
decrease sound quality. VM Audio recommends only light
spray painting.
• When running long lengths of speaker wires, it is
recommended that higher gauge wire (14 Ga or higher) is
always used throughout the wiring.
• For non-distorted high output performance, use an
amplier with the same power rating as the loudspeaker.
Power Requirements
Speaker Wires

No Sound
• Check the speaker wires and ensure they have a solid
connection to all the speaker terminals on each speaker
and on the amplier or receiver.
• Check that the receiver or amplier is powered “on” at the
mains, is not on “mute”, has no headphones attached and
that the channels used for the speakers (usually A or B) is
in operation.
• Refer to the owner’s guide that came with your receiver or
amplier for troubleshooting guidelines for the unit.
• Most initial problems are connectivity, please try a
different connection cable to your in-wall speaker(s) or
equipment.
No Sound from One Speaker
• Check the “balance” control on your receiver amplier.
• Check all connections and cable to the inoperable speaker.
• Disconnect the “working” speaker from the receiver
amplier connection/channel. Switch the cord from the
non-operating speaker from its current connection to the
“working” speaker connection. If the speaker now works,
the problem is your receiver amplier.
• Reconnect as original. Remove the speaker cable at
the “working” speaker directly and connect it directly to
the non-working speaker. If the speaker now works, the
problem is somewhere in the original speaker cable.
• If the speaker still does not work the problem is the
speaker.
