Sonance THX Speaker User Manual


 
7. Insert the speaker into the hole in the wall.
Note: The RotoLock system can accommodate a maximum wall
material thickness of 1¼”.
8. Tighten the four screws on the front of the speaker baffle. The
RotoLock clamps will automatically rotate into position and begin
clamping the speaker.
• When you notice resistance on the four screws the speaker has been
clamped successfully.
The speaker flange is designed to flex and conform to any small
imperfections in the wall surface. Do not tighten the screws so much
so that the flange bows-out.
9. Attach the grille after the speaker has been installed. Insert about half
of the grille into the groove at the edge of the speaker. Gently fit the
remaining half of the grille by working around the speaker, fitting the
grille into the groove as you go.
Note: You can adjust the torque applied to the RotoLock screws to
achieve a proper grille fit.
IR Receiver Knockout
Sonance Cinema Select LCR
speakers have a knockout for
installing an IR receiver into
the speaker’s front baffle.
This allows you to aim
remote controls at the front
of the room instead of at the
electronics, in systems where
the electronics may be placed in an inconvenient location.
To remove the knockout, drill it out from the rear using a drill with a ½”
bit (there is a sleeve guide directly behind the knockout).
After inserting the IR receiver through the hole, seal it into the speaker
using silicone caulk (make sure that there are no gaps around the receiv-
er that could create air leaks) and dress the wire into the groove on the
back of the baffle.
Note: The speaker’s grille may reduce the effectiveness of the IR receiver.
If this occurs, slightly enlarge the holes in the grille that are directly in
front of the IR receiver.
PAINTING THE SPEAKERS AND GRILLES
You can paint the speakers and grilles before installing them, which will
eliminate the “paint scar” if the speaker ever needs to be removed for
service. You can also paint the speakers after installation, but before the
grilles are attached. Sonance Cinema Select speakers come from the
factory fitted with a plastic ‘paint plug’. Use the paint plug to protect the
speaker drivers while the flange is being painted along with the wall.
Sonance always suggests painting the grille separately from the speaker.
Before painting,carefully remove the under-grille cloth.It is held in place
with a light tacking glue that makes it easy to remove.
Spray the grilles with thinned paint (5 parts thinner to 1 part paint),
being careful not to plug the holes.Too heavy a coat of paint on the grille
will adversely affect the sound of the speaker.
Once the grilles and flange are painted and dry, replace the under-grille
cloth,remove the paint plug from the speaker flange and install the grille.
