PAINTING THE SPEAKER
FRAME AND GRILLE
JBL in-wall 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
perforations remain
free of paint. Filling
them with paint will
diminish the sound
quality.
6. Screw the L-brackets into the
studs.
7. Remove the wood centering
bars and replace the flat-
head screws into the holes
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
SS88IWSBB 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 SS88IWSBB back box to
the correct terminals on the
SS88IWS loudspeaker. See
pages 6–7.
