Break in Period:
Premium grade parts and materials are used in these Elite-101/202/303 products so maximum performance can be obtained in damp and dusty environments such as wall and ceiling cavity. Break In period is appx 10-20 playing hours after which time Bass will improve. There is no need to limit playback volume at all during this time.

The Ultimate In-Wall / In-Ceiling Speakers
Step 1: Advanced Planning
Decide the placement for your speakers. Advance planning in regards to the placement of your speakers is critical. It is imperative that the wall or ceiling cavity be free from debris, moisture,
insulation, and any materials that are easily combustible. The mounting location must also be void of wall studs or bracing in the location for the cutout. Adequate Wall Cavity depth (see above) to allow speakers to fit flush to the wall or ceiling surface is important. If you are unsure of the contents of the wall in which you wish to mount
the speakers, Electronic Stud Finders work very well (see FIG 1), otherwise a professional installer can assist here.

Congratulations for buying the best In-Wall Speakers on the planet !
Please read this manual carefully understanding that advanced planning is essential.

Step 4: Cutting the Wall / Ceiling
Using the appropriate wall-cutting tool, blade or Stanley knife, accurately cut the hole in the wall material, based on the correct cut-out dimension (see FIG 3).
Step 5: Installing Speaker Leads
For Elite-101 and 202, from your Receiver run one speaker cable thru the wall/ceiling to each Left and Right speaker (see FIG 4). For Elite-303, run TWO speaker cables thru the wall/ceiling to each Elite-303 as this model has inbuilt Centre/Left and Centre/Right
speakers as well as Left and Right. (See FIG 5 and FIG 7). In both cases, leave enough slack in wire so that it can hang out of hole.
Step 3: Template:
Use the supplied template and mark the cut-out on the wall or ceiling. To mark, simply trace with a pencil, along perforated line (see FIG 2). Ensure your markings are level.
Step 2: Fitting Glass Grills
Fit Elite-101 grills squarely and be certain ALL 4 magnets grab and not just 2 or 3. For Elite-202/303, align all 8 pins then gently press Glass panel into rubber bushes. When removing, pull a little from top, then from bottom to remove evenly.
Step 7: Mounting Speakers Insert the entire speaker into the hole. Move Speaker wire away
from back of cone to avoid a possible rattle. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, tighten the screws attached to the dog clamps until you feel Dog Clamps take grip (9~10 FULL TURNS). At this point you can see the gap
between Speaker Frame and wall/ceiling close fully. Then, NIP THESE UP - DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. See FIG 6. Note: If you are unable to install these speakers yourself, please contact an authorized electrician or installation contractor.
Matching Subwoofer : Elite-606:
140 Watts RMS, Heavy-Duty “monster” driver with 40oz magnet and 2”Voice Coil is perfectly matched to ALL JENSEN Speakers. Available in stunning Hi-Gloss White or Black. See separate Info Manual.
Step 6: Red-to-Red & Black to Black
Connect the speaker wire from the positive (RED+) terminal on the receiver to the positive (RED+) terminal on the speaker. Connect the negative (BLACK-) the same way to the negatives. Note: If you inadvertently reverse one of the connections (i.e. RED to BLACK) you will notice a severe lack of Bass from your system. This is called wiring your system “Out of Phase”. If this occurs, check the wiring and reconnect as necessary.
Sound Settings
Boost switch. Adjust Elite-202 / 303 Treble switches to suit your sound preference.
If using a Subwoofer set to (+) to fully maximize performance. Note: Elite-101 has no switches but is factory preset to Max Boost (+).
Eyeball Tweeters. You can adjust the angle of the Tweeter slightly in order to compensate for poor
mounting locations. Do this by adjusting Tweeter casing. DO NOT touch the Tweeter in any way as permanent damage may occur.

full turns
TIPS: 9~10 Full Turns.
With a screw cutting a new plastic thread, the first few turns may appear stiff. It will become easier. The trick is to gently close the gap between Speaker panel and wall, then
NIP THESE SCREWS UP – DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN AND
DO NOT USE A BATTERY DRILL.
TIPS:
1. Use Laser level or Spirit level to ensure template is perfectly level. 2. Use a Stud Finder to Pre-plan your locations. 3. Both ends of Speaker Leads must be Pos (+) to Pos (+) & Neg (-) to Neg (-)
4. Do not use Battery Drill.
