Please use Diagram 1 below to familiarize yourself with the rear panel of your outdoor speaker.
WIRING
Placement Under Eaves and Outdoors
When mounting your speakers outdoors, the eaves of the roof
provide an ideal location. They reduce the exposure of constant
direct sunlight, salt spray, and precipitation. If installing speak-
ers on a boat, the wheelhouse provides the best location for the
same reasons. Following these suggestions will help to ensure
that your speakers will last a lifetime.
Placement on a Wall or Bookshelf
When placing your speakers on a wall or bookshelf, optimal
sound will be achieved if they are mounted at ear level or slightly
higher. The usual listening area should be no closer to the speak-
ers than the distance between the speakers themselves.

Depending upon your listening area, you may nd the sound
more pleasing by pointing the tweeter in a particular direction. If
additional treble is desired, simply point the tweeter towards that
area; if less treble is required, point the tweeter away.
ADJUSTING THE PIVOTING TWEETER
Push gently at the edge
of the tweeter to point
the tweeter in the desired
direction. Do not touch
tweeter dome.

chaser only (“you”) that this product will be free from defects in materials and
workmanship for a period of ten years (the “Warranty Period”), subject to the
limitations and exclusions set out in this Limited Warranty. This warranty is not
transferable to subsequent owners of the product. If you discover a defect in
material or workmanship within the Warranty Period, you can obtain warranty
service by contacting Procient during the Warranty Period at 877.888.9004
or techsupport@procientaudio.com or by sending the product to Procient
at 940 Columbia Avenue, Riverside, CA 92507 or to the dealer from whom you
purchased the product. Defective products must be shipped, prepaid and
insured, together with proof of purchase. Warranty service requests made
without proof of date of purchase will be denied. Freight collect shipments
will be refused. It is preferable to ship this product in the original shipping
container to lessen the chance of transit damage. In any case, the risk of loss or
damage in transit is to be borne by the purchaser.
If, upon examination by Procient or its authorized dealer, it is determined that
the unit is in fact defective, Procient will, at its option:
• Repair or replace the product at no additional charge; or
• If the model is no longer available and can not be repaired eectively, replace
the unit with a current model of equal or greater value. In some cases where
a new model is substituted, a modication to the mounting surface may be
required. If mounting surface modication is required, Procient assumes no
responsibility or liability for such modication.
Procient will bear the cost of returning the repaired or replaced product to
you, freight prepaid. All replaced parts and product become the property of
Procient Audio Systems. The foregoing is your sole and exclusive remedy for
breach of warranty. If the product is not found to be defective, Procient will
contact you to arrange for return of the product to you, at your expense.
EXCLUSIONS:
• This Warranty does not include service or parts to repair damage caused by
accident, disaster, misuse, abuse, negligence, inadequate packing or shipping
procedures, commercial use, voltage inputs in excess of the rated maximum
of the unit, or service, repair or modication of the product by unauthorized
dealers. This Warranty also excludes normal cosmetic deterioration caused by
environmental conditions.
• This Warranty will be void if:
• the Serial Number on the product has been removed, tampered with or defaced.
• the product was not purchased from an authorized dealer.
THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER
EXPRESSED AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES. PROFICIENT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS
ALL SUCH OTHER WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. In no event will Procient be liable for any incidental
or consequential damages arising out of the use or inability to use the product,
even if Procient has been advised of the possibility of such damages, or for any
claim by any other party. Notwithstanding the above, if you qualify as a“con-
sumer” under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, then you may be entitled to any
implied warranties allowed by law for the Warranty Period. Further, some states
do not allow limitations on how long an implied Limited Warranty lasts or allow
the exclusion or limitation of consequential damages, so such limitations may not
apply to you.
