All-Weather Speakers – Outdoor/Indoor/Marine
Congratulations on the purchase of your new all-weather speakers. At NXG Technology,
we strive to offer products that are durable, functional, and above all else – speakers that
produce great audio. Like all NXG products, our all-weather speaker line has evolved
from hours of rigorous testing by our engineers and customers and were designed to provide you with years of great sound, whether in your den, backyard or on your boat. Please
take a moment to to review the installation instructions to ensure that you get the most
from your new speakers.
Unpacking
Carefully remove your new NXG speakers from the box. Inspect the speakers for transit
damage. If you discover damage, contact your dealer immediately. Save your carton – it is the
best possible protection for your speakers should you ever have a need to move them.
Positioning and Mounting Your New NXG Speakers
Note: the distance between yourself and the point directly between the speakers should be
(roughly 20%) greater than the distance between the two speakers. Outside placement may
be different, due to variances in available mounting areas.

All NXG weather-resistant speakers are equipped with
powder-coated ratcheting aluminum mounting brackets
that allow for vertical or horizontal mounting. Be certain
the type of anchor you choose, and the material you
are mounting the anchor into, are capable of holding
the weight of the speaker. (Many mounting anchor systems are available from your local hardware store.)
After mounting the bracket, connect the wire as shown
in Figure 2, and loosely secure the speaker to the
bracket using the supplied knobs. Adjust the speaker’s
angle for optimum listening area coverage and firmly
hand-tighten the knobs.
Hooking Up Your
New NXG Speakers
STOP! – Make sure that you consult your amplifier’s
owner’s manual regarding speaker hook-up. Your amplifier should be turned off throughout this procedure.
Most speaker wire is polarity coded. This means that
each conductor is labeled either (+) positive or (-) negative. The (+) positive side may be a different color or
texture than the (-) negative side. On the back of your
amplifier, each channel should be labeled (+) and (-)
as well as color coded red for (+) positive and black for
(-) negative. NXG speaker terminals are color coded
red for (+) positive and black for (-) negative. Be sure
to hook (+) to (+), (red to red), and (-) to (-), (black to
black). (See figure 3.)
Inspect connections for frays and stray strands of wire
touching both (+) and (-) terminals. (This will cause a
short and, perhaps, damage your equipment.)
All connections should be tight.

Caring for Your Speakers
In outdoor applications, we recommend angling the speakers downward
as shown in Figure 1 to reduce exposure to precipitation and hot sun. If
added protection is desired, mount speakers under eaves or other shelter. DO NOT immerse the speakers in water or subject them to direct
water pressure. During winter months, we recommend storing the speakers indoors if you are not using them.
TO CLEAN: All NXG weather-resistant enclosures can be cleaned with
a damp soft cloth and a mild detergent. The aluminum grille can also be
cleaned with the same cloth
Troubleshooting and Service
The NXG speaker is equipped with a tweeter protection device. If
extreme power levels are reached, it will reduce the amount of power
going into the tweeter. If you detect reduced output levels from the speaker while playing at a high volume, it is a warning that too much power is
being applied. You must reduce the level by turning down the volume of
your receiver to a safe level or permanent speaker damage may result. It
is important to remember that no amount of protection will prevent damage caused by defective equipment or extreme abuse.
If you should have a problem, first try to determine if it is indeed a
speaker problem. Determine whether the problem exists in both speakers.
If it does, the problem most likely originates in some other components in
the system. If the problem is in one speaker only, reverse your speaker
leads (left to right, right to left). If the problem moves to the other speak
er, your problem is not in the speakers.
Once you have determined that you have a speaker problem, contact
your dealer for authorized factory service information. If you are unable to
contact your dealer, if your dealer is unable to solve your problem, or if you
have any questions or comments regarding your NXG Speaker System,
please contact us at the address or phone number below.
