PRO DUCT FEATUR ES
The Concourse R6 and R8 are designed to be installed in a wall cavity and are supplied with a unique latching bar for wall mount­ing. Wiring is terminated to a pair of color-coded spring terminals on the rear of the speaker bezel.
Both models include the following components inside each carton:
• Speaker assembly (2)
• Cover grille (2)
• Latching bars (4)
• Latching bar screws (12)
• Plastic paint cover (2)
• Cardboard cutout template (2)
Please ensure that you are familiar with all of the parts and how they are assembled before starting the installation.
INS TALL ATI ON
NOTE: Installations in existing buildings require that you first ensure that the location is suitable and that there are no obstacles behind the wallboard material before cutting an opening. Use extreme caution when cutting into walls to avoid severing electrical wiring, heating ducts or water pipes.
Step 1
Carefully unpack the contents of the box and ensure that all parts are accounted for before beginning the installation.
Step 2
Locate the cardboard mounting template and use it to mark the hole size needed for the installation. Cut the mounting hole using a suitable saw.
5
Step 3
Install the latching bars to the rear of the speaker assembly by inserting only the top two screws on each bar. Do not tighten the screws yet, leaving enough slack to permit installation into the wall cavity.
Step 4
Pull the speaker wire from inside wall cavity and terminate to speaker.
Step 5
Lift speaker assembly to opening and, tilting the top forward, insert the bottom latching bars into the cavity far enough to allow the top of the latching bars to sink into the cavity.
Step 6
Lift the speaker into position and tighten all four mounting screws, ensuring that the speaker remains centered in the opening.
Step 7
Insert the remaining two screws into the front of the bezel and tighten.
Step 8
If the speaker bezel is to be painted place the supplied clear plastic paint cover over the front. Otherwise, attach the grille to the bezel by pushing firmly around the perimeter of the grille.

WIR ING & CO NN ECTI ONS
Ensure that all wiring is installed in compliance with local laws, codes and convention. Obtain all necessary permits and approvals and use only cable that is approved for the application and is sized to safely accommodate the impedance load.
Concourse R series speakers use spring terminals. The Positive, + terminal is coded RED, the Negative, Minus, terminal is coded BLACK. Remove the plastic insulation from the top 0.5" (12mm) of each conductor. After twisting the copper strands tightly, depress a terminal and insert the bare wire end. Release the terminal and the wire will be secured. Repeat for the other terminal. Use any color coding on the cable as a guide to identification. Ensure there are no loose strands of wire that may short across the terminals.
COM PLIA NCE
This product is in compliance with CE directives and bears the CE mark. For detailed information on specific directives please contact your local QUAD Industrial sales office or distributor.
