Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a high-quality Insignia product. Your NS-R2111 represents the state of the art in outdoor speaker design, and is designed for reliable and trouble-free performance.

Safety information

Although the your new rock speakers are designed to withstand outdoor conditions, there are things you can do to prolong the life of your speakers:

• Keep dirt and leaves from covering the speaker grille. If dirt accumulates on the grille, it can be rinsed away with water.

• Avoid placing the speakers so that they face directly at any sprinklers.

• Chemicals commonly used in the back yard may damage the rubber parts of the speakers. Avoid spraying these chemicals onto the speakers.

Features

Each Insignia NS-R2111 rock speaker package includes the following items:

• 2 rock speakers

• 50 feet (15.24 m) of outdoor speaker wire

• 2 electrical connector caps

•User Guide

Setting up your speakers

Planning speaker locations

Your rock speakers feature a wide angle of coverage. A few speakers will cover a large area with sound.

When designing your outdoor system:

• It is better to have more speakers playing at lower volumes, than a few speakers playing at high volumes.

• Place the speakers as close to the listening area as possible.

• Make sure that you can easily run wire to each of the speaker locations.

Gathering your tools

To install your new speakers, you will need:

• A small spade or shovel

• Measuring tape

• Wire cutters

• Wire strippers

• Heat shrink tubing (recommended)

• A lighter or matches for heat shrink tubing

• A soldering gun

Connecting the speakers

To connect your speakers:

1 Measure out lengths of speaker wire required

to connect each speaker. Estimate the length of additional speaker wire you will need, if necessary.

Note

Purchase direct burial-grade wire if you need additional speaker wire.

2 Dig a 5-inch deep trench to each speaker

location for the speaker wire.

3 Connect the speaker wire to the speaker.

Each speaker has a two-conductor cable exiting the bottom of the speaker, which can be run beneath the speaker into the ground, or through the notch on the bottom of the speaker to the side.

Caution

Make sure that all connections are secure. A poor connection can lead to corrosion and a loss of performance.

For best results, crimp or solder the wires together and use heat-shrink tubing to seal each individual conductor, then join the two sealed connections together with the electrical connector cap provided or with another layer of heat-shrink tubing.
