Where To Place Your In-Wall Speakers
Placement can make all the difference in how your speakers sound, and how easy they will be to
install. Carefully consider where your speakers should be positioned. For optimum performance,
speakers should be mounted to the left and right of the main listening position and a minimum
of 8 to 10 feet apart (See Fig. 2). Avoid mounting speakers in stud cavities containing electrical
wiring, heating ducts, water pipes, etc. Make sure the wall or ceiling materials are sturdy enough
to support the weight of the speakers.
In-Wall Placement: Optimum performance will be achieved when your speakers are mounted at
ear level or slightly higher. If you desire to mount them higher in the wall, turn the speaker over
so the tweeter is closer to the listening area.
In-Ceiling Placement: Optimum performance will be achieved when your speakers are mounted
to the left and right of the main listing area.
Adjustable Tweeters (Fig. 3)
The tweeters in all NXG Pro Series speakers may be adjusted, allowing you to tailor the speaker to
better fit the listening area. The overall smoothest response is achieved with the tweeter facing
straight out: however, you may find the sound more pleasing by aiming tweeters toward a partic-
ular listening area. To adjust the tweeter, apply pr
essure on the ring surrounding the tweeter with
your thumb or finger
.
Tweeter/Midrange Level Adjustments (Fig. 3)
The level switches allow you to tailor the speakers’ frequency response to better match the room’s
acoustics. As an example, if a r
oom has a hardwood floor, which makes it acoustically brighter
sounding, you may want to adjust the tweeter and midrange levels to compensate. You can
experiment with both levels to find the sound that’s most pleasing to you in your particular
listening environment.

It is recommended that your speakers be mounted with the tweeters facing the inside as shown.

1. NXG Architectural Speakers are designed to be installed in the wall area between studs. Using a
stud finder, make sure you are between two studs. Using the supplied template and a level to

your template is straight, trace around the outside with a pencil.
2. Cut the hole using your drywall saw. You may want to start with a small hole in the center of the
outline. This will allow you to check for any obstr

tion. CAUTION: Be certain electrical wiring, water pipes or heating ducts do not interfere in the
planned installation areas prior to drilling or cutting the wall.
3. Run speaker wire from your amplifier or speaker switching device to the speaker location.
4. Carefully remove the grille and inner grille backing. (Note: The open cell foam inner grille backing
is designed to hide speaker components from view and may be removed if desired.) If you like
the standard white finish of your NXG speakers, skip to step 5, but if if you want your speakers
to blend in with a colored wall or ceiling, now is the time to paint your speaker’s outer frame and
