TruAudio offers the perfect solution for on-wall or bookshelf mount satellite speaker, with the world’s easiest and fastest 360° mount. These sphere shaped speakers were specifically designed and built to provide superior quality, power handling and outstanding sound stage. Both models can easily handle the current and past formats that today’s audio/video demands. This makes these ideal for your home theater and 2 channel TV listening.
Both the SAT3 (left and right) and SAT3CC (center channel) were designed to be installed on the wall, in a cabinet. Both models feature attractive, esthetically pleasing cabinets with the most flexible mounting system TruAudio has ever designed. With this new magnetic mount the speaker attaches with one quick step and you can aim the speaker in almost any direction with ease.
The SAT3 is a mono speaker meant for both audio and video. This model can be used for the front left, right and surround sound speakers. These speakers can be mount on the wall or on a shelf.
The SAT3CC pushes the limit of innovation. With the same ground breaking magnetic mount this speaker will complete any surround sound system.

All models are timbre matched to each other, as well as other TruAudio architectural speakers so combining different models in an AV system will not be a problem. Additional TruAudio speakers
can be added to a system with the confidence that the speakers will remain balanced.
Unpacking and Inspection:
These on-wall loudspeakers are packaged extremely well to make sure no damage occurs during shipping. Carefully open the box and remove the speaker. Inspect it immediately for any kind of damage.

All service to this product MUST be done by a TruAudio Authorized repair center. If you try to do any kind of repair, this will void the warranty!
We recommend that you retain the packaging in case a need arises for you to transport your loudspeakers. Home Theater Use:
Today’s Home Theater systems require 6 or more speakers for true, life like Home Cinema listening. These speakers are: the front right and left, the center channel, right and left surround (rear), and a subwoofer. Some systems also require additional surround speakers or rear centers to enhance the theater sound. The placement for these speakers is critical to having your home theater experience the best it can be.
Before Installation:
In order for these speakers to perform to their potential, we recommend the amplifier or receiver must have the proper amount of power output. For both models we suggest using,

SAT3 150 watts and the SAT3CC 175 watts. These speakers require 2 conductor speaker
cable when connecting to the amplifier/ receiver. For most applications, we suggest using a good quality, high strand 16 gauge or larger
If the speaker cable will be run inside the wall or ceiling, make sure the speaker cable is UL certified and is accordance with all your local building regulations. Speaker Placement SAT3:
The SAT3 was designed to be used for the front right and left. They can be mounted on the wall or use the mounts in cabinetry.
Note: Both mounts are designed to installed over a single gang box.
Mounting speakers on the wall: CATUTION: PLEASE USE THE PROVIED SAFETY CABLE TO SECURE THE SPEAKER TO THE MOUNT!
First you need to connect your speaker cable to the speaker terminals, making sure to keep your polarity correct. See figure #1
fig #1
sure when you are installing the mount to put the screw through the eye hole on the safety cable. See figure #1 IMPOTANT: We highly recommend using the safety cable. Depending on the finial position of the speakers, the mounts can be installed in either direction. See figures #2 and #3
fig #2 fig #3
If mounting like figure #2, you will need to reroute the safety cables the white interlink speaker cable through the underside of the mount. Do this by pulling the interlink cable connector and safety cable through the hole in the mount. Then remove the rubber grommet from the bottom of the mount and find the notch in the mount and in the grommet and match them together. These notches provide a space to route the interlink and safety cables through. See figure #4 Now the mount will install flush on the wall.
Mounting to a single gang box or directly to the wall is the same, either use the provided screws to mount to the box or use your preferred hardware to mount directly to the drywall. Make

Now it very INPORTANT to attach the safety cable to the back of the speaker. See Figure #6 Even though the mount will safely hold the speaker the safety cable will prevent the speaker falling in an earthquake or something hitting it. The final step is to install the finish cover plate
