DESCRIPTION 5
Gallery In-Walls were developed using the finest
loudspeaker and crossover components available. Countless
hours of computer modeling were spent to insure accurate
audio reproduction in a variety of installations where
placement compromises must sometimes be made. The
Gallery In-Wall Loudspeakers deliver the high-fidelity
audio reproduction you have come to expect from high-end
loudspeakers in a cabinet.

CONNECTIONS 6
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 minimum 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.
Precautions
If you have any doubts about your ability to properly install
in-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 Gallery In-Wall Loudspeakers mount into standard 4-
inch (or greater) stud depth walls. Determine the final
location of both left and right speakers before cutting 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.

INSTALLATION 7
Installing the Gallery In-Wall Loudspeakers
1. Confirm that there is at least 1 1/2" of clearance between
each edge of the planned cutout and adjacent studs or
joints.
2. Fasten the supplied cardboard template to the wall or
ceiling with tape or thumbtacks. Check again for equal
distance of both speakers from the ceiling or floor.
3. Trace around the perimeter of the template.
4. Before making the final cutout, make a small 6-inch
square “test cutout” in the center of the penciled
outline. Reach inside the test hole to verify that there
are no obstructions in the way of your planned cutout.
5. Before cutting the hole, first score the drywall with a
razor knife and use a keyhole saw to complete the cut.
Remove debris from the edge of the hole.
6. Secure the speaker wire to a stud near the cutout so its
weight will not tug on the terminals of the speaker after
it is connected. This also keeps the wire from dropping
behind the wall before you can connect it.
7. You can insert bare wire up to AWG 12 into the holes on
the connection plate to connect speakers.
8. Carefully separate the removable grill from the baffle
and loudspeaker assembly. The bezel can be mounted in
the wall and painted if desired. Note: The grilles should
be painted separately rather than while mounted in the
separate bezel.
9. Insert the Gallery bezel into the cutout to make sure it
fits easily without forcing.
10. Evenly tighten the mounting screws on the bezel. The
mounting “swing-arms” (also known as mounting
“dogs”) will automatically swing out 90 degrees. After
they swing out, the arms then clamp against the drywall
from behind the wall. Avoid using excessive force to
prevent deforming the drywall or cracking the speaker’s
mounting frame.

INSTALLATION (Cont) 8
11. We recommend that you add a “blanket” of sound
absorbing material such as ceiling insulation behind the
woofer to reduce sound transmission into the adjoining
room. Additionally, any sound leakage from behind the
molded frame can be blocked with foam weather-
stripping directly behind the plastic speaker bezel.
12. Aim the (eye ball) tweeter in the direction of the
listening area. Be careful not to push in the silk dome.
13. Install the Grill and enjoy.
