Painting The Speakers; Preparing For Installation - Boston Acoustics Designer Serie Manual Del Usuario

Painting the Speakers

If you intend to paint the speakers, it's best to do so before you install them. Typically, a primer coat is not necessary.
1. Remove the speaker grille. Carefully pry on one edge with an awl or small screwdriver. If you choose to paint the metal
grille, do so after detaching it from the speaker.
Note: You may find it helpful to thin the paint to be used on the grille. This prevents the paint from filling the holes.
2. Use the form-fitting paint mask provided to paint the housing. Cover the slots with masking tape.
3. After painting, remove the paint mask by carefully inserting a screwdriver into the slots.

Preparing for Installation

Take the following steps to prepare for installation:
1. Map out the wiring paths from the speakers to the amplifier. We recommend 18-gauge or larger wire for runs up to 25
feet and thicker 16-gauge wire for longer runs. Be sure the speaker wire does not rest or rub against any sharp or point-
ed objects.
2. Each speaker is 8 ohms nominal. When connecting more than two speakers per amplifier channel, you should use series
wiring or an impedance protection device such as a line transformer.
3. Make sure that the total system's impedance does not fall below the amplifier's minimum rating. If you are not certain,
consult your Boston Acoustics dealer.
