4.Follow the hook-up directions included with your receiver. Strip
1/2 inch of insulation from each of the two conductors of the wire
to expose the bare metal and twist each into a single unfrayed
strand. Note that one of the terminals on the rear of each speaker
is red ( + ) and the other is black ( - ). Make certain that you con-
nect the wire from the red terminal of your amplifier to the red
terminal on your speaker and the wire from the black terminal of
the amplifier to the black terminal on your speaker. Most wire
has some indication (such as color coding, ribbing, or writing) on
one of the two conductors to help you maintain consistency.
5.After insuring that the rotating wall clamps (4 in the case of the
AB555, 6 in the case of the AB755 and 8 in the case of the AB855)
are flipped inwards, place the speaker into the cutout. If you have a
level it can help you in correctly aligning the speaker to the wall.
Tighten the mounting screws using a power screwdriver. This will
rotate the wall clamps, securing the speaker to the wall (see Fig 6).
Hint – on the AB755 and AB855 tighten the center mounting screws
before the corners for the most flush fit to the wall.
Do Not Overtighten!
6.Install the grille on the speaker. (You should have already painted
both the grille and frame.) Should you ever need to remove the
grille do not use a knife to pry between the grille and speaker
frame. Instead, insert a pointed metal tool into one of the grille per-
forations near a corner and lift the grille free.
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE OR SERVICE
If, after following the hook-up directions, you experience difficulty,
please double check all wire connections. Make sure that your electron-
ic equipment is operating correctly by hooking up another speaker to the
speaker output. For example, if you are not getting sound from the left
channel speaker, connect the right channel speaker to the left output. If
you still get no sound from that side, the problem is in your amp, receiv-
er or source electronics. Should you isolate the problem to the speaker,
contact the authorized Polk Audio dealer where you made your pur-
chase. Authorized Polk Audio dealers are the best source for advice
and assistance.
