This is by far the most important step before we even begin the installation. For the most effective
placement the speakers should be at roughly the same height as the middle of the TV screen they are to be used with, one to the left and one to the right of the screen. Otherwise, a height of five or six feet from the floor and in between the studs of the wall is ideal. Avoid corner locations if possible. Separate the left and right speakers by about 5 to 10 feet, or roughly half the listening distance. Please make sure the speaker wire has a clear path from your stereo or A/V receiver to the placement of your speaker.
The Axiom Architectural Speakers are designed to be installed in the common stud wall with drywall or some similar type wall board covering. For other types of walls special installation procedures
will need to be used.
Step 1
Using the supplied template and a level (not included) mark an outline of the wall cutout to place the Architectural Speakers. Be sure to avoid the wall studs by at least 1.5 inches on each side. Then carefully cut the selected area using a jigsaw or
drywall saw.
Warning: Make sure there aren’t any other wires,
pipes, or other fixtures that might be in the wall before cutting.

Step 2
Place the wall-mount frame in the wall cutout from Step 1. The frame is marked “TOP” for proper orientation of the speaker (models W2 & W3). The W22 frame can be mounted either side up.

Step 3
Set your level on top of the frame. As you tighten the screws, the metal frame should push out behind the wall to create a clamp. This can be helped along by pushing it out with your fingers. Tighten each of the screws to clamp the frame to the wall (the screws
should be snug but not forced).

Step 5
Insert the speaker wire into the hole in the binding posts of the Architectural Speaker, keeping the red and black (positive and negative) connections consistent. Use the supplied wrench to tighten down
each nut to hold the wires in place.

Step 4
If your speaker wire is not already installed in the wall you will need to run it down inside your wall to your baseboard and then around the room to your amplifier or receiver.

Step 6
Finally, mount the Architectural Speaker by sliding the speaker into the wall-mount frame using the middle indent as a guide. When the speaker contacts the wall, push in and down to lock it in place.
