1. Open the tripod stands by loosening the lower knob and separate the legs until fully
extended. Tighten the lower knob to secure. Repeat this step for the second stand and
position it approximately 10 feet away from the first stand.
2. Insert the eyebolts into the top hole of the stands and tighten them into place with the
twist knobs.
3. From the center of the stand twist one stake into the ground about 3 feet from the front
and the other stake 3 feet from the back. Repeat this step for the other stand.
4. Loosen the height adjustment knob and raise the top tube up to the height of the sixth
hole. Insert the pin into the sixth hole. Tighten the knob to secure the tube. Repeat this step
for the other stand.
5. Hook the first tie down strap into the eyebolt at the top of the stand and connect its
other end to the rear twist stake. Connect the second tie down strap to the hook of the
first strap and connect its other end to the front twist stake. Be sure to leave a little slack in
the straps, you will tighten them fully momentarily. Repeat this step for the other stand.
6. Unfold the black screen. Using the Spring Clips, attach the black screen’s D-Rings,
Velcro side forward, to the eye bolt at the top of the stand. Repeat this step for the other
stand.
7. Take a bungee cord and hook one end onto the lower adjustment knob of the tripod
stand. Wrap the bungee under and around the base of the stand. Attach the other end
of the bungee cord to the bottom corner of the black screen. Repeat this step for the
other stand.
8. Now, tighten down all 4 tie down straps to ensure a secure flat viewing surface. You
may need to move the tripods closer together or further away to achieve this.
9. Take the white screen and with the Velcro facing inward, secure it to the black screen’s
D-Rings using the Spring Clips and Velcro along the top. Then, secure the bottom corners
of the white screen to the bungee cord hooks at the bottom of the screen.

1. Attach the brackets to the speakers using the provided twist caps. Attach the speakers
to the tripod stands by inserting the hex bolt through the top hole in the speaker bracket.
Then insert the hex bolt through the tripod stand. Using the twist knob from the parts bag,
tighten the hex bolt in place. You may need to temporarily remove the speaker from its
bracket to fit the hex bolt through.
2. Connect the speakers together using the speaker wire. Press the red and black tabs
down on the active speaker. Insert the wire into the two openings. Release the tabs to
secure the wire in place. Run the wire behind the screen to the passive speaker. Unscrew
the black and red knobs to expose the holes underneath of them. Insert the wires into
each hole and screw the knobs back down to secure.
3. Plug in the RCA cable to the red and white inputs on the back of the active speaker.
Plug the power cord into the back of the active speaker. Plug in the extension cord to the
power cord. Run the RCA cable and extension cord back to your projection station about
15 feet centered in front of the screen.
3. Set-up a small table for the projector
and streaming stick approximately 15 feet
centered in front of the screen for the
projector and Fire Stick.

via the HDMI port on the projector.

Using Rear Projection
1. Use only the white stretch screen without the black backdrop.
2. Set Up the projector station behind the screen, shooting the image through the white
screen instead of on top of it from the front.
3. You will need to flip the image on the projector so that the picture is not reversed on the
viewing surface. This can be done in the projector menu under projection settings.
Volume Controls
There are 2 ways to control the volume on your system! We’ve found this is the best place
to start!
1. Make sure the volume is all the way up on the projector! The sound leaves the projector
and goes out to the speakers. So, if you don’t have sound, it’s probably down all the way
on the projector.
2. Set your speaker volume to a quarter on the back of the active speaker to start. You
can always adjust it later but it’s best to start there, so you aren’t startled by the sound!
You can always crank it up!
Amazon Fire Stick
We recommend you set Up your Fire Stick beforehand inside on a TV. Log Into all your
apps and connect to your Wi-Fi so it’s ready to go when you want to stream content!
Using Other Media Sources
You can use any media that connects with and HDMI cord! Try out video game systems,
laptops, phones, cable, anything!
