IN-WALL SPEAKER PLACEMENT (ALX5.25IW / ALX6.5IW / ALX8.0IW)
These speakers are designed to operate in a standard drywall or wood paneling type wall.
The In-Wall speakers may also be used for front left and right main speakers or even a center channel.
You can mount the speakers in a vertical or horizontal position depending on the limitations of the wall.
1. Choose mounting locations that are an equal distance left and right of the listening area as shown
in DIAGRAM 4.
2. Use the speaker cut-out template supplied to mark your hole locations.
(Be sure there is clearance behind the area you have chosen for the speaker. Avoid electrical wiring,
plumbing, moving parts, air ducts and Fire Stops.
3. Use a drywall saw or other appropriate tool to carefully cut out the speaker holes. The cut-out is the
exact size required for the speaker. You also can go as much as 1/4” over this size as “Mistake Room”.
4. Connect the speaker wires (18 gauge wire not supplied) to the speakers as shown in DIAGRAM 5.
(Be sure to get the + and - polarity correct)
5. Place the speaker into the speaker opening and using a # 2 phillips screw driver, turn the Dog-Ear
fastening screws clockwise (be sure to support the weight of the speaker until all Doq-Ear screws
are securely tightened).
The Doq-Ear Clamps will rotate away from the speaker enclosure and begin to tighten against the
mounting surface to secure the speaker as shown in DIAGRAM 6.
6. Carefully route the speaker wires to the amplifier or other power source. Be sure to avoid moving parts,
heat producing items and water exposure.
Note: To ensure your total surround sound experience, be sure to consider the SW10 and SW12
powered subwoofer system which will provide heart pounding bass to your favorite action movies.
