User manual DEFINITIVE TECHNOLOGY DI LCR

[. . . ] DO NOT PAINT THE GRILLE WITH A BRUSH OR ROLLER -- they will clog the fine mesh of the grille and cloth scrim and result in poor sound quality. Remove the grille from the speaker and place it on a drop cloth, newspaper or plastic sheet. The grille MUST be spray painted with one of the following: · Spray paint that closely matches the desired finish/color · A custom spray bomb color matched to your paint finish · Indoor latex paint using a spray gun (paint must be diluted to the paint manufacturer's specifications) 4. Do not remove the backing cloth (scrim). [. . . ] If you wish to use a DI 6. 5LCR as a horizontal center channel speaker or if you cannot center a DI 5. 5LCR between studs, consult a professional installer. Figure 5 · Using the supplied template, trace the installation location with a pencil. You can do this by holding the template in your preferred location and tracing around it. Use a bubble level to square and level the template [Figure 4]. · Carefully cut the hole with the appropriate cutting tool for your wall or ceiling material. Start the hole by drilling a hole on the inside of the tracing (with the drill bit just inside the line). Use this hole to insert the saw or knife and begin cutting [Figure 5]. · Once you have cut the hole, pull the speaker wire out of the hole and connect the speaker. Strip 1/2" inch (12 mm) of insulation from each of the two conductors of the wire to expose the bare metal and twist each of the conductors into a single unfrayed strand. Note that one of the terminals on the rear of each speaker is marked red (+) and the other black (-). Make certain that you connect the wire from the red terminal (+) of your amplifier or receiver to the red terminal (+) on your speaker and the wire from the black terminal (-) of your amplifier or receiver to the black terminal (-) on your speaker. Most wire has some indicator (such as color-coding, ribbing or writing) on one of the two conductors to help you maintain consistency [Figure 6]. 3 DI LCR OWNER'S MANUAL Installation Continued · Push down on the top of the terminal to reveal the wire hole in the side of the terminal post and insert the wire into the hole [Figure 7]. Release the pressure on the terminal to secure the wire. · Loosen the rotating lock arms by turning the lock arm screws on the front of the speaker counter clockwise 1/2 to 1 turn, just enough to allow the lock arm to move freely. Make sure that the rotating lock arms are flipped inwards [Figure 9] so that the speaker fits into the cutout. · Place the speaker carefully into the cutout. If you have a bubble level, use it to help you correctly align the speaker. Tighten the lock arm screws with a screwdriver [Figure 10]. This will rotate the lock arms [Figure 11] and secure the speaker to the wall/ceiling. Do not over-tighten the lock arm screws. If you are using a powered screwdriver or drill set the torque to a value of 7 in. · Install the grille on the speaker frame. Powerful magnets hold the grille in place.
