Installation
Locate the amplifier in the ceiling, wall or on the surface required. Tabs at each end of the
housing can be used for securing with screws.
Mark out and cut the required aperture for each speaker into the ceiling or wall cavity.
Feed the speaker cable from the amplifier to each speaker through the wall/ceiling cavity.
Connect speakers using the supplied wires or equivalent by connecting “+” and “-” on the
speaker to the relevant connection on the amplifier. The speaker connections are via screw
terminals on a Euroblock, which can be removed for easy access whilst making connections.
Once connected, install each speaker by bending the spring clips back, feeding the speaker
into its cut-out in the wall or ceiling and releasing the springs to clamp it in place.
If the amplifier is to be used with a wired audio line level input (instead of Bluetooth),
connect this to the Euroblock terminals labelled “AUX IN” as shown on the Connections
diagram above.
Left positive connection (Left+) should be connected to “L”
Right positive connection (Right+) should be connected to “R”
Both negative connections (Left- and Right-) should be connected to “G”
(G is the terminal for Ground connection –common for both Left and Right signals)

953.138UK, 953.139UK User Manual
Likewise, the Bluetooth or Aux input can be relayed to further amplifiers by connecting a
line level output from the Euroblock terminals labelled “AUX OUT”. All AUX IN and AUX OUT
connections should be made using shielded stereo audio cable and not speaker cable.
Operation
When powered up, the amplifier will be open for Bluetooth pairing.
(a small LED will flash inside the housing)
Ensure that only the first amplifier in an AUX OUT-IN daisy chain is powered up initially.
This will ensure that all of the amps in the daisy chain receive the same audio.
Search available Bluetooth devices on your smart phone or other sending device for a device
with Bluetooth ID “IW30B-****”or “IW60B-****”
(where **** is a unique ID number for each unit)
Select to pair and connect with this ID
When paired and connected, set the volume low on the smart phone or other sending
device and play a track to check the sound through the speakers
Power down the amplifier when not in use and isolate from the mains if not used for long
periods of time.
