SPEAKER INSTALLATION
• Each R800TT Single Stereo Rock Speaker has a four-conductor cable exiting the bottom of the speaker. One pair, White (+) and
Green (–), is for the left channel. The other pair, Red (+) and Black (–), is for the right channel. This cable should be connected to
a similar cable run to the speaker location from your audio system. Procient recommends using 14 AWG certied direct burial
cable that is ideal for this purpose. The cable can be run either directly beneath the speaker into the ground, or you can use the
notch on the bottom of the cabinet to exit the cable out the side.
• Alternately, the R800TT can be wired in parallel (4Ω) and used in mono if two speakers are used, one for left and one for
right channel, and the amplier can drive 4Ω.
• When attaching wire to the R800TT Single Stereo Rock Speaker, it is critical that a high quality connection is achieved. A poor
connection may lead to corrosion and a decline in or loss of performance. For best results, use a set of weatherproof wirenuts.
Another option is to use a watertight direct burial box or crimp or solder the wires together and use a heat shrink tube to seal
each connector.
• Each R800TT Single Stereo Rock Speaker includes an integrated anti-theft ring located at the bottom of each cabinet. This ring
will allow you to attach a security harness to it.
CAUTION
Although they are designed to withstand the elements, there are precautions you should take to optimize the long-term
performance of your speakers. Keep soil and wood chips from covering the speaker grille. If soil accumulates on the grille, it can
be rinsed away with low water pressure. Chemicals commonly used in the yard can potentially damage the rubber parts of the
speaker. Avoid spraying such chemicals onto or near the speaker. Also avoid placing the speakers where the grille area will come
in direct contact with sprinklers.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
• If you desire music over a wide area, it is best to have a larger number of speakers playing at low volume, rather than a few
speakers playing at high volume. Keep this in mind when designing your outdoor system.
• Ideally, you should place the speakers as close to the primary listening area as possible. The perceived volume of the speaker
decreases rapidly as it is moved further from the listener.
• Avoid placing the speakers where the grille area will come in direct contact with water from sprinklers.
• Direct burial wire or conduit for new yard construction must be run to the location of the speakers. Keep in mind that patios,
walls and other features in your yard may be dicult to get around when wiring.
• The R800TT is intended to be used as a single stereo speaker in a small listening environment. In a large outdoor area, it may
be necessary to utilize additional speakers to achieve optimal eect.
