INSTALLING THE SPEAKERS
ADJUSTING YOUR SPEAKERS
Pivoting tweeter
The pivoting tweeter can direct sound toward or away from the
listening area. To pivot the tweeter on the C201SQ, apply light
pressure to the plastic ring around outside edge of the tweeter. If you
have any questions about how the pivoting tweeter should be
adjusted, consult your authorized Sonance dealer.
Step 1
Remove the paint plug from the
speaker. Attach the wire from your
amplifier to the terminals on the back of
the speaker. Double check the polarity
of the speaker wires, amplifier + to
speaker + and amplifier - to speaker -.
Note: Do not apply pressure to the tweeter dome.
Here are some suggestions:
Orient the pivoting tweeter toward the listening area if the speakers
are widely separated and the music fails to blend into a central image
when the system is operated in stereo.
If you are using the speakers as rear channels in a home theater you
can point the pivoting tweeter towards a wall or window to create a
diffuse surround affect.
Step 2
Make sure the RotoLock® clamps are in
the full clockwise position so that all the
clamps are tucked within the cutout
border. Insert the speaker into the hole
in the ceiling.
PAINTING THE SPEAKERS AND GRILLES
Speakers and grilles can be painted before installation, which will
eliminate the "paint scar" if the speaker needs to be removed for
service. Speakers may also be painted after installation, but before the
grilles are attached. All speakers come from the factory fitted with a
plastic "paint plug." Use the paint plug to protect the drivers while the
flange is being painted with the ceiling.
Note: The maximum clamp thickness is
1-1/4" (32mm)
Sonance suggests always painting the grilles separate from the
speaker. The grilles may be lightly sprayed with thin paint (5 parts
thinning agent to 1 part paint), but be careful not to plug the holes.
Too much paint will adversely affect the sound of the speaker.
Step 3
Tighten the four screws on the front of
the baffle. The RotoLock clamps will
rotate into position automatically and
begin clamping. When you notice
resistance on the four screws, the
speaker has been clamped successfully.
Once the grilles and flange are painted and dry, remove the paint plug
from the flange and install the grilles.
The flange is designed to flex and
conform to any small imperfections in
the wall surface. The screws should not
be tightened so far that the flange bows
out.
Step 4
After the speaker is installed, and all the
adjustments shown to the right are
completed, the grille can be installed.
Insert about half of the grille into the
groove at the edge of the speaker.
Gently fit the remaining half of the grill
into the speaker by working your hands
around the speaker fitting the grille into
the groove as you go along.
Note: The torque applied to the
mounting screws can be adjusted for
proper grille fit.
