Your RadioShack 2-Way In-Wall Speaker
features a crossover, a 61/2-inch woofer for
rich lows, and a 1-inch tweeter for crisp
highs. The speaker can handle up to 100
watts of music power. The wing-type
mounting system makes it easy to mount
your speaker flush with the ceiling or wall,
making it ideal for unobtrusive use in a
surround-sound system. The frame and grille
can also be painted to match the room’s
decor.

To mount your speaker, you need the
following items (not supplied, available at
your local RadioShack or online at
RadioShack.com).
• drywall or keyhole saw
• wire stripper
• Phillips screwdriver
• pencil or marker
• 18–20 gauge speaker wire
1. Be sure the mounting surface is between
3
/8 inch and 11 /4-inch thick, with at least a
23
/4-inch clearance behind the mounting
surface and no wall studs or other
objects to block the back of the speaker.
2. Remove the inner cardboard disc from
the supplied template/paint mask and
keep it for later. Use the outer portion as
a template to mark the cutout hole size
and location for mounting the speaker.
3. Use a drywall or keyhole saw to cut the
hole..

If you choose to paint the frame and grille,
paint them and let them dry before you
connect the speaker wire or mount the
speaker.
To remove the grille for painting, insert a
paper clip into one of the grilleopenings, then
pull up. Or, you can carefully twist the plastic
frame back and forth until the grille edge
becomes exposed, then lift the grille to
remove it.
Carefully remove the dust cloth from behind
the grill and replace it after you are finished
painting.±
You can also paint the frame to match your
wall or ceiling. To prevent paint from entering
the speaker, remove the grille and insert the
supplied cardboard paint mask. After the
paint is dry, remove the paint mask and
replace the grille.

Your local RadioShack store sells a wide
selection of speaker wire. We recommend
you use wire that is color-coded or marked on
one side to help you connect the wire
correctly.
1. Route the speaker wire to the speaker
from the receiver.±
2. Separate about 4 inches of speaker wire
at each end.

Do not paint the speaker element. We
recommend you spray-paint the grille so paint
does not block the holes.

3. Using a wire stripper, remove about 1
/4
inch of insulation from each wire. Then
twist the ends of each wire.
4. Connect the marked wire to a red
speaker terminal by pressing the release
tab, inserting the wire into the hole, and
then releasing the tab. Repeat this
procedure to connect the unmarked wire
to the black terminal.
5. Connect the marked wire coming from
the speaker to the left channel of the
receiver's positive (+) terminal. Then
connect the unmarked wire to the left
channel of the amplifier's negative (–)
terminal.

1. Remove the grille to expose the
mounting screws.
2. Be sure the mounting tabs are turned in,
allowing the speaker to fit into the hole.
Then insert the speaker into the
mounting hole.
3. Use the four screws to tighten the
mounting tabs to the wall or ceiling. Be
careful not to overtighten the screws.
4. Replace the grille.
To remove the speaker from the wall or
ceiling, loosen the screws only far enough to
remove the speaker. This will prevent loss of
the mounting tabs.
