Ultimate In-Wall™

High-Performance Designer Loudspeakers

Owner's Manual

The Ultimate In-Walls have been voiced by Deﬁnitive engineers

(using the superb facilities of the National Research Council) to the

same high-end standards as all Deﬁnitive loudspeakers. The drivers

and bafﬂes are perfectly integrated into the designs to minimize the

diffraction problems that are inherent with most other in-wall

loudspeakers. To ensure that you experience the ﬁnest performance

possible from your Ultimate In-Walls, we encourage you to read this

owner’s manual to familiarize yourself with the proper installation

and set-up procedures.

All models:

• Incorporate high power, high deﬁnition cast basket Deﬁnitive

bass/midrange drivers combined with state of the art Deﬁnitive

1" dome tweeters (except UIW 63/A and UIW 83/A which use

astamped basket driver).

• Incorporate polypropylene cones with butyl rubber surrounds.

• Incorporate a complete precision crossover system designed by

Deﬁnitive engineers for seamless driver blending.

•Are moisture resistant to allow use in bathrooms, etc.

•Incorporate the installer’s favorite: a sturdy, easy and quick to use

metal pivoting dog mounting system.

• Are easily paintable and come complete with mounting templates

and plastic paint masks.

•Optional rough-in kits are available.

• UIW 55, 65, and 75 incorporate a variable high frequency

equalization control to optimize response characteristics for

different mounting positions.

The Sound Quality Is Extraordinary

The Ultimate In-Wall Loudspeaker Series

Please Inspect For Shipping Damage

Each loudspeaker leaves our plant in perfect condition. Any visible

or concealed damage most likely will have occurred in handling after

it left the plant and should be reported at once to your Deﬁnitive deal-

er or the delivery company that delivered your loudspeakers. Please

unpack your system carefully. Save all cartons and packing materials

in case you move or need to ship your system. Record the serial num-

bers found on the back of the In-Wall Loudspeakers in the appropriate

place on your warranty card.

Unpacking Your In-Wall Loudspeakers

Ultimate In-Wall Installation

Deﬁnitive’s Ultimate In-Wall Loudspeakers are designed to be

mounted in walls or ceilings with excellent results. Because of their

wide dispersion characteristics and other aspects of their superb sonic

performance, mounting position in your room is very ﬂexible. Because

of the different requirements of the wide variety of room shapes and

sizes, we recommend that you consult with the custom installation

specialist at your Deﬁnitive Technology dealer regarding your own

particular needs.

Painting Your In-Wall Loudspeakers

All Ultimate In-Wall Loudspeakers are easily paintable and are

shipped with plastic paint masks (which should be retained even if

you initially decide not to paint the speakers). The grill and frame

must be painted separately and, for best results, prior to installation

in the wall.

For the grill, spray painting is the recommended method. Follow

the paint manufacturer’s directions for ventilation and correct spraying

procedure. Be very careful not to clog the speaker grill with too heavy

acoat of paint as this will impair system sonic performance.

For the frame, spray painting is preferred but brush or roller will also

give good results. The supplied frame masks should be put in place to

protect the speaker components whichever method you choose.

Planning for Installation

Please allow a minimum of two inches of clearance in all directions

behind the wallboard for your speakers. Lateral clearance should not

be an issue as all models of Ultimate In-Wall Loudspeakers are narrow

enough to ﬁt between wall studs.

Required Tools for Installation

• Saber or keyhole saw or utility knife capable of cutting drywall

• Medium Phillips screwdriver

• Level (optional)

Installation Procedure

Safety Notes:

•In general, installation by a professional installer is

highly recommended.

• Before starting construction or modiﬁcation of your walls or

ceilings, you should familiarize yourself with any applicable

requirements of the local ﬁre and building codes.

• Speaker wire must be run inside the wall as part of the

installation of in-wall loudspeakers. Plan the connection route

before you start the installation.

• Before opening up the installation cavity, check to ensure that

the area behind does not contain wiring, plumbing, ductwork, etc.

It is our pleasure to offer assistance if you have any further

questions or comments. Please feel free to contact our technical

support staff at Deﬁnitive Technology, LLP, 11433 Cronridge Dr.,

Step by Step Installation

The included template is the exact size of the required speaker

opening. Once you have decided on a general location for your

speaker, hold the template in the preferred position on the wall

or ceiling and trace around it taking care that the opening is level.

Use a saw or knife to cut the opening.

Run color coded wires between the speaker cavity and the

ampliﬁer unit. When running the wires inside the wall to the opening,

leave a minimum of 12" of additional length in the cavity to facilitate

speaker connection.

Connect the speaker wires to the In-Wall unit taking care to make

red to red (“+”) and black to black (“-”) terminal connections.

Refer to your ampliﬁer or receiver loudspeaker wiring instructions,

turn off the unit and connect the speaker wires to the appropriate col-

ored output terminal on the unit, again making red to red (“+”)

and black to black (“-”) connections. This will ensure absolute phase

throughout the system.

The metal pivoting dogs are pre-installed in the loudspeaker frame

with Phillips screws. The dogs can be rotated left or right by turning

the screws.

Toinstall speaker, ﬁrst rotate screws one-half turn counter clock-

wise to swing the dogs into position to clear the edge of the wall

cutout. Then place speaker frame in position in the cutout and rotate

screws clockwise one-half turn to grip the wall and tighten by hand

until frame is stable but loose enough to be adjusted in ﬁnal position.

Level the speaker frame and snug screws into place taking care not

to overtighten.

Fit grill on frame.

On the UIW 55, 65 and 75, you will note that there is a two position

switch marked HF EQ on the top of the crossover circuit board facing

the speaker bafﬂe. This can be set to either H (brighter) or L (less

bright), depending on personal listening preferences as well as your

chosen mounting position.

High Frequency Equalization Switch
