Architectural Series™

Installing the Speakers

Architectural Series speakers are installed after the Bracket has been installed into the wall or ceiling and

the area has been drywalled, mudded, painted and completely finished.

1. Remove the Paint Shield from the Panel Bracket.

• Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the 4 screws that attach the paint shield to the bracket.

(See

Figure 1

2. FOR ROUND AND SQUARE MODELS ONLY: Remove the packing material around the woofer magnet

at the back of the speaker. Make sure that the pivot tensioner arms are located behind the crossover

cover overhangs (see Figure 2), and make sure that the woofer is facing straight out (not pivoted to

the side). NOTE: ARCHITECTURAL SERIES WOOFERS DO NOT PIVOT, AND HAVE NO PACKING.

3. Strip ¼” – ½” of insulation from each lead of the

speaker wire. Twist the strands or tin the

exposed wire with solder to ensure that there are

no stray strands. (Stray strands that touch each

other can cause a short-circuit that can damage

your amplifier.)

4. The speaker’s spring-loaded connector posts are

located under the crossover cover (see

Figure 3

Push the top of each connector post down to

open the connector and insert the exposed wires

into the holes in the posts.

• The speaker’s positive post is labeled with a

red dot; the negative post is labeled with a

black dot. Double-check that you connected

amplifier “+” to speaker “+” and amplifier “–”

to speaker “–”.

INSTALLATION MANUAL

If a Retrofit Backbox has been installed on the Bracket, connect the marked set of wires inside the

Backbox to the speaker’s connector posts. Connect the red wire to the speaker’s ”+” post and the black

wire to the speaker’s “–” post.

Note: Z8-series and X8-series speakers have two sets of “+” and “–” terminals (see Figure 4).

For single-wire connections you can use either set of terminals. You can also bi-wire these

speakers by removing the jumpers between the LF and MF/HF “+” and “–” terminals, and

connecting two sets of speaker wires from the amplifier, one to each set of terminals.

5. Insert the speaker into the Bracket and use the supplied hex-head screws and supplied hand-held hex

wrench to secure it (see

Figure 5

• Round, square and smaller rectangular models require 3 or 4 screws; larger rectangular models

require 6 screws.

• When you notice resistance on the screws the speaker has been clamped successfully.

Pivoting Drivers

All Architectural Series speakers

(except Architectural Series Woofers)

have pivoting drivers that allow you

to direct sound towards the listening

area. This will help the sound from

the speakers blend into a solid sound-

stage even if the speakers are widely

separated.

• All Z/X8 series models have a

pivoting Sonic Eye®midrange/

tweeter assembly; round and

square Z/X8 models also have a

pivoting woofer assembly.

• All Z/X6 and Z/X4 series models

have pivoting tweeters; round and

square Z/X6 models also have pivoting woofer assemblies.

To pivot the drivers, apply light pressure to the specific locations shown in

Figure 6

. Do not touch or apply

pressure to the rubber driver surrounds or the driver surfaces.

Midrange and Tweeter Level Controls

All Z/X8-series, all Z/X6-series and the Z/X4 model speakers have a tweeter level control switch;

all Z8 and X8-series speakers also have a midrange level control switch. (Note: Architectural Series

Woofers have no level controls.) These controls let you boost or cut the driver’s level by 3dB to better

match the listening room or the listener’s personal taste. The controls are located on the speaker baffles

(on Fascia models they are located behind the removable fascia). See
