MODELS SP6C, SPYROC IN CEILING Template/paint shield. [. . . ] Remove paint shield (inner rectangle) at perforation. Proper placement of the speakers is an important step in obtaining the most realistic soundstage possible. These recommendations are for the optimum placement of the loudspeakers. Use these placement recommendations as a guide. Slight variations will not diminish your listening pleasure. The front speakers should be placed the same distance from each other as they are from the listening position. They should be placed at about the same height from the floor as the listener's ears will be. In a home theater configuration, the two surround speakers should be placed slightly behind the listening position and, ideally, should face each other and be at a level higher than the listener's ears. If that is not possible, they may be placed in a wall behind the listening position, facing forward. The surround speakers should not call attention to themselves. Before painting, install the paint shield (inner section of template in the assembly kit) securely into the recess in the baffle. This will protect the speaker components and baffle from paint residue. Use a high-quality spray paint, and apply a thin coat of color. Be certain the grille perforations remain free of paint. Filling them with paint will diminish the sound quality. Note: Gently remove the acoustical foam blanket from the grille before painting. Reattach the blanket after the paint has dried. Connect the speaker wires to the speaker. Place the frame assembly in the wall. Screw down each of the four Phillips head screws. The locking tabs will swivel into place and secure the unit to the rear surface of the drywall.
