INSTALLATION

Note: The speakers should be mounted on a flat surface to form a good seal between the

speaker flange and the mounting surface.

1. Make a 7

⁄8-inch (194mm) cutout using the

supplied template. It is not necessary to remove

fiberglass insulation that may be behind the wall.

2. Run wire from amplifier to cutout. Allow an

extra foot of wire at the cutout.

3. Remove the speaker grille. Carefully pry up one

side with an awl or small screwdriver.

The AMC650r and AMC680r have heavy-duty spring-loaded push terminals for their input

connections. The terminals will accept wire or pins up to

⁄32-inch in diameter.

4. If connecting with bare wire, strip the wire so that

approximately

⁄2-inch is exposed. Twist the wire

into a bundle so that there are no stray strands.

Push the end of the terminal to expose the hole in

the side of the terminal. Then insert bare wire into

the hole and release.

5. The insulation of the wire will have a stripe or ribs on one side. Use this marking to ensure

the + (red) terminal of the speaker is connected to the + terminal of the amplifier and the

– terminal of the speaker is connected to the – terminal of the amplifier.

Warning! To prevent electrical shock, always switch off the amplifier or receiver when making

connections to the speaker system.

6. Place the speaker in the hole. Rotate the

speaker until the tweeter waveguide is

aimed in the desired direction. Use a

Phillips screwdriver to tighten the four

pivoting mounting arms. Avoid

overtightening, as this could break the

mounting arms or damage the ceiling surface.

7. Install the grille. Press firmly arund the outer edge of the grille

to seat it firmly in place.
