• Aperion Audio 6LCR, We will help you determine the optimal speaker locations sonically speaking, but you will need to look for the clues that indicate problematic behind-the-wall obstructions. For example, in-wall wiring often runs straight up or straight out from lights, outlets, switches etc. The same is true of ducting running to vents. Once you’ve zeroed in on specifi c placements for your speakers, mark the spots with tape so, as you move from location to location, you can make adjustments if needed when you get to the next step. Front Three Speakers Placement: The ideal in-wall set-up

• Aperion Audio 6LCR, • Enter the speaker set-up menu on your receiver and — assuming that your home theater system includes a subwoofer — set all of the in-wall and in ceiling speakers to the “small” setting. • One of the most important steps to optimizing your system is speaker level calibration. Some speakers will play too loud or too quiet due to their placement or effi ciencies. The speaker level calibration menu lets your receiver compensate for this by transmitting a test signal that moves from channel to channel, allowing you to adjust the levels until each speak

• Aperion Audio 6LCR, a. First, check for obstructions behind your chosen speaker locations. Drill a small hole in the center of the area you plan to cut out. Take a piece of coat hanger wire and bend it at a 90-degree angle — insert it into the small hole and fi sh around to make sure no pipes, studs, wires or other objects are hiding there. A “stud-fi nder” also works well to locate in- wall structures you’ll want to avoid — they can be found at hardware stores. If you do fi nd an You’ve decided where the speakers will go — it’s time to cut some holes in your wall! Step 2. Cut the Holes 6 Fig. A obstruction, you can easily

• Aperion Audio 6LCR, a. Aim the tweeter before adjusting the “Treble” switch. You’ll probably want to aim the tweeter into the main listening area. For a diffused surround sound, try aiming the tweeter away from the listening area. b. Start with the “Treble” switch in the “0” or “Neutral” position. If you’re considerably off to the side of where the speaker is aimed, try the “+3dB” position. If the speaker is aimed directly at you, you’re very close to the speakers or the room is very “lively”, you may prefer the “-3dB” position. c. Start with the “Bass” switch in the “0” or “Neutral” position. If the speaker is near a corner, you�

• Aperion Audio 6LCR, a. Start by visualizing where the wire will need to run and consider various wiring strategies: Attic: With in-ceiling speakers, this approach is the most popular and usually the easiest to install. It will probably involve drilling through the header, a stud that caps the top of the wall, with a 3/8” to 1” “spade” bit above the receiver. If you choose in-wall placement rather than in-ceiling, a similar hole will probably be needed above the speaker locations as well. Running the wires from your electronics to the spea

• Aperion Audio 6LCR, In-wall speakers a. Your speakers came with their grills attached. To remove the grills prior to painting, insert the supplied tool through a grill-hole near the edge and simply pull the grill out. b. Paint the speakers’ fl anges, carefully following the instructions for the type of paint you’re using. c. The grills can also be painted but care should be taken not to clog the holes. Most hardware and paint stores sell an inexpensive spray-can that allows you to spray small amounts of most ty

• b. Select your speaker wire and purchase the proper lengths. Now that you know the speaker locations and have a wire-routing plan, the wire lengths you’ll need can be estimated. A good guide is to use 18 gauge wire for runs less of than 75 feet, 16 gauge wire for runs of 75 to 150 feet and 14 gauge wire for runs over 150 feet (the speaker terminals will accommodate 14-gauge speaker wire
