PAINTING THE SPEAKER
FRAME AND GRILLE
JBL HTI Series loudspeakers
can be painted to match any
décor. If you wish to change
their color
, the satin finish on the
grille and frame will function as
a primer coat. Before painting,
install the plastic paint shield
securely into the recess in the
baffle. This will
protect the
speaker components and baffle
from paint residue.
Use a high-quality spray paint,
and apply a thin coat of color
.
Paint the grille separately from
the baffle before installing it.
Be certain the grille
perfor
ations r
emain
fr
ee of paint.
Filling
them with paint will
diminish the sound
quality.
6. Screw the L-brackets into the

bars and replace the flat-

left over (the holes left in the
cabinet face underneath the
bars are also counterbored to
accept the flat-head screws).
8. The enclosure is now
installed and ready for the
wallboard to be installed
over it.
9. Make the connections from
your receiver/amplifier to the
HTI88 back box connections
panel, and to any other
speakers as appropriate for
your system, following the
instructions on pages 4–7.
Connect the eight wires
hanging from the bottom of
the HTI88BB back box to the
correct terminals on the
HTI88 loudspeaker. See
pages 6–7.
