Getting Started
Astronaut branded speaker systems are amplified and designed
to plug into either mono or stereo sources of sound. Please check
the model number of your speaker for input specifications.
Common Sources
Computer
Projector
Microphone
DVD / VHS
Interactive Whiteboard
CD / iPod®/ iPad®
The Astronaut has a built-in amplifier. Connect to fixed or
variable line level sources only.
When using an electronic source, turn off all equalizer or
compression algorithm effects, commonly called “bass boost”,
“surround sound”, “jazz”, etc. If connecting to a computer,
make sure that the sound card software is properly set up
for uncompressed and un-boosted stereo output. Use only
the stereo output from DVD’s and personal computers. The
Astronaut is not designed to plug into third party amplifiers,
pre-amps, or subwoofer output jacks. Most line and variable
headphone jacks are suitable sources.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
A
Safeguard this equipment from high humidity conditions.
Read the instructions completely prior to attaching the
speaker overhead.
Take special care to not drop the equipment while
mounting to the ceiling.
Heed to all cautions and warnings posted within this guide
and on the speaker equipment.
When not using the equipment for long periods of time,
e.g. one month or longer, disconnect the power supply. The
Astronaut has over-voltage and diode protection built in;
however, it is best to err on the side of caution.
Never force anything into the openings or source inputs of
the speaker equipment.
Do not use this equipment if it shows obvious signs of
damage from shipping or dropping.
Do not use this equipment if ambient temperatures exceed
120 °F (48 °C).
Make sure equipment is properly mounted according to the
Ceiling Mount Instructions found in this guide. This is the
only approved method of installation; any other may cause
a loss in warranty.
Follow these instructions & use precautions
NOTE
All literature can be found on our website. Please download
an electronic copy of this guide for your records.

INSTALLER NOTES
Stereo Sources
Maximum input voltage should not exceed 300 mV per input
channel (A, B, or C). Do not use any multi-channel sources like
3-channel, Dolby Digital 5-channel, THX, or Q-Sound.
Mono Sources
Maximum input voltage should not exceed 150 mV per input
channel (A, B, or C). Use microphones that offer a mono or stereo
line output instead of microphone level output. Cetacea Sound
microphones are compatible with the Astronaut. Use of other
brands may result in unpredictable results and is not advised.
Line Level Sources
Although preamps, projector outputs, and music mixers are
popular, it is possible to “overdrive” the Astronaut with these
devices, leading to premature failure and a loss of warranty
coverage.
Additionally, equalizers, bass boost, surround sound, QSound,
spatializer, and other compression techniques are not necessary
and will add nothing to the sound quality. This can also
“overdrive” the Astronaut, leading to failure and a loss of
warranty coverage.
Recommended assembly tools
The following tools are recommended to mount the Astronaut
to a suspended ceiling tile.
Phillips head screwdriver
Hand drill with ¼" and ½" bits
Measuring tape

CEILING MOUNT INSTRUCTIONS B
Determine Speaker Location
The Astronaut is very forgiving and does not need to be in the
center of the room for the best sound quality. Typically, installers
choose a location near the projector in order to share the same
power source in the ceiling. Try to maintain at least 4' of space
from the nearest wall or vertical obstruction.
CAUTION
Install speaker away from direct heat, high humidity, and
physical obstructions.
Do not install the Astronaut speaker near a projector
exhaust port or fan. The hot air from the projector can
cause the Astronaut to overheat and fail.

Drill or tap ¼" holes at location Afor the provided 4 aluminum
bolts. Drill or tap a ½" hole at location Bin the ceiling surface
for the security eye bolt.
Above Ceiling Cabling (optional)
