FEATURES
The Model 620WE in-wall enclosed loudspeaker is a unique design unlike any other before it. It allows you to bring concert­quality sound to virtually any area of your home that may have been previously off-limits because of building code restrictions or weather conditions.
The Model 620WE utilizes its mounting wings to mount into a wall like conventional in-wall speakers, while incorporating an integral enclosure to provide a vapor barrier between you and the outside world.
The long excursion, high performance woofer was designed specifically to work with its integral enclosure to insure deep, accurate bass. While the soft dome tweeter perfectly complements the woofer with its sweet sound and well-controlled off-axis frequency response. The tweeter is also designed to pivot which allows you to “aim” the high frequencies.
All of the Model 620WE components have been manufactured with high quality, weather resistant materials. This completes the Model 620WE’s package of versatility, performance and durability.
LOUDSPEAKER PLACEMENT
Blueprint Series Loudspeakers are designed to work within any interior decorating scheme. They can be installed in virtually any location where flush mounting is possible. To maximize their sound performance however certain guidelines should be followed. For the best stereo reproduction the two loudspeakers should be placed an equal distance from your listening position and separated so that the angle between them, at the listening position, is between 40 and 60 degrees.
For best stereo imaging, we recommend that the units be placed so that the tweeters are as close as possible to the ear level of a seated listener. As this is not always possible in keeping with aesthetic design of a particular room, the Model 620WE loudspeaker is designed with a pivoting tweeter which rotates to allow you to “aim” the high frequencies toward the listening position.

STEP 1
Using a stud finder (available at low cost at most hardware stores) or other accurate method, locate center point between two studs and mark. Using template provided, trace hole pattern on surface of wall.
STEP 2
Using a sabre saw, keyhole saw or very sharp utility knife, cut hole in wall, following traced pattern.
STEP 3
Run loudspeaker wires to sound source location. There are several methods you can use to accomplish wiring, depending on the construction characteristics of the room or house. You can add a professional touch to your installation by using a speaker terminal plate at the source location. Leave sufficient amount of wire at speaker location (8 to 10 inches) to complete connection.
STEP 4
Attach loudspeakers wires to speaker terminals, observing correct polarity (positive to positive and negative to negative). Insert the speaker into the mounting hole. Be careful not to pinch the loudspeaker wires in the process. using the integral bubble levels located on the baffle, align the speaker’s frame either horizontally or vertically. Once you are satisfied with the speaker’s location, tighten the eight mounting wings located near each corner of the frame using a phillips screwdriver. The mounting wings are designed to swing into position when you start tightening.
Note: the phillips head screws are for tightening the mounting wings. The torx head screws are for the enclosure which should not be tightened or loosened.
STEP 5
After speaker panel is secured tightly, test for sound.
STEP 6
When you are satisfied the speaker is operational, “aim” the tweeter, and affix grill. As grill is designed for a snug fit, you’ll need to position one edge into the slot first, and press or squeeze around perimeter of thegrill, while pushing the leading edge into the grill slot.
