Handcrafted
Beneath the surface of Phantom’s elegant exterior lies rigid MDF
construction. Interlocking joinery maximizes the strength of the cabinet
parts. Polyester fiberfill is selected for internal damping. A sharp rap on
the enclosure will leave you with little more than bruised knuckles.
Each cabinet is impeccably finished on all exposed surfaces with select
veneers. The exquisite finish is hand-rubbed several times to assure a
patina at home with the most elegant decor.
Our Commitment
A great deal of forethought, love and satisfaction is instilled in each piece
of Legacy workmanship. We take pride in getting to know many of our
customers on a first name basis.
Your purchase of this product is backed by the renowned “Legacy
Satisfaction Guarantee”.

Your new speaker system has been very carefully packaged to insure
that it travels to you safely. Each speaker is protected by a double-
wall outer carton with heavy V-board corner protectors. Molded foam
end caps are used to protect the elegant cabinetry, and a plastic liner
is provided as waterproofing. Please save this packing for future
transportation. If cartons become damaged or misplaced, new ones
can be purchased from Legacy Audio.

Precautions
If you have any doubts about your ability to properly install on-wall
loudspeakers, you should consider the services of a custom installer. If
you plan to install them yourself, always use high quality tools to save
time and make the installation go more smoothly. The Phantom On-Wall
Loudspeakers mount on standard 16-in center stud walls. Determine the
final location of both left and right speakers before drilling any holes
since changes to one speaker may affect the other either aesthetically or
acoustically. Look for pipes, wiring or any other conflicting material that
might be damaged before beginning the installation.

the Phantom Loudspeaker. The bracket
can be mounted either vertically on one

studs.
- Place the provided screws in the
appropriate holes based on how you wish
to mount your speakers. Please see

Before you purchase loudspeaker wire, check local building codes to
make sure that the wire is rated to comply with applicable local
safety codes such as UL or CL-2. Use only stranded wire no thinner
than AWG 16. For runs longer than 100 feet, we recommend mini-
mum of AWG 14. When pulling wire, take care not to pull the wire
too fast to prevent stretching the wire or scorching the insulation
from friction. Leave 2 to 3 feet of excess loudspeaker wire at both
ends; it is easier to trim off excess wire than to splice additional wire.
When securing the wire inside the walls, be careful not to pierce the
insulation with nails or staples.
