IN WALL INSTALLATION - All models applicable to this application
1. Using screws that are at least 3/4” long, affix back can to studs or joists. Tannoy recommends a
minimum of four screws for the iw4DC / iw6 TDC / iw6 DS backcan and a minimum of 8 screws for the
iw62 TDC / iw62 TS backcan.
2. Run appropriate gauge and type of wire for your particular installation to the backcan location.
1/2” or 3/4” conduit is also an option.
3. Install a suitable connector for wire chosen into the 1/2” or 3/4” knock out. Run wire through
connector, leaving enough length to reach transformer or loudspeaker with excess for ease of connection.
4a. Transformer model only.
Connect the transformers red (+) and black (-) leads to the wire that was run previously
through the connector. The transformer in the iw4 DC back-can is factory set at 30W/ 70V.
The transformers in the iw6 DS, iw6 TDC, and iw62 TDC back-cans are factory set at 60W/ 70V.
These wattage tappings can be changed by adjusting the connection location of the red wire on the transformer.
4b. Non-Transformer model.
Leave excess wire in the backcan until drywall or desired finishing is complete.
5. The flange on the front of the backcan will protrude through the drywall and act as a guide
for drywall installation.
6a. Transformer model only.
After desired finishing is complete, connect the brown (+) and blue (-) leads from the transformer
to the red (+) and black (-) terminals on the chosen loudspeaker model.
6b. Non-Transformer model.
After desired finishing is complete, connect the previous installed wire in the backcan to
the red (+) and black (-) terminals on the chosen loudspeaker model.
* On the iw6 TDC and iw62 TDC loudspeaker models an optional ground wire may be used to reduce RF interference *
7. Follow installation instructions found in the chosen loudspeaker manual for final speaker installation.
