the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not

plugs, convenience receptacles, and the pint where they exit from the

apparatus.

11) Only use attachments & accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12) Use only compatible rack or cart for final resting position.

13) Unplug this apparatus during lightening storm or when unused for a long

Unpacking System Components

• Keep the original carton and packing materials for future shipment or

storage.

• Check for any visual signs of damage. If you encounter any concealed

damage, consult your Earthquake Sound dealer before proceeding with unit

installation.

• Retain the sales receipt as it establishes the duration of the limited warranty

and provides information for insurance purposes.

System Installation Considerations

There are several factors to consider before installing Earthquake Sound’s

RCS In-Ceiling Speakers.

• What are the intended listening zones?

• What system options and accessories might be required for features such

as local sources, etc.?

• From where in each zone will the listener prefer to control the system? Where

will the remote gains be located? Where will the speakers be located?

• Where will the source equipment be located?

Connection Tips

• Keep all power cords away from all signal cables to prevent humming from

induced noise.

• Choose reliable signal cable cords (Earthquake Sound also specializes in

high-performance RCA cables and patches).

• All speaker wires that are ran through the walls should be twisted to reduce

potential hum noise pick up.

• Label both ends of all wires with the corresponding room location.

• It is best to use a grounded electrical outlet to power the amplifier. Lack of

input ground reference could be unsafe. Consult your electrical contractor

about proper grounding.

RCS In-Ceiling Manual 5Specifications are subject to change without notice

RCS in-ceiling speakers are paintable and can accept virtually any type of

paint. Spray and roller paint applications typically provide the best results.

When you are ready to begin painting remember to shield the driver and

tweeter from the paint. Be sure to remove the inner grille cloth before painting.

Replace it once the paint has completely dried.

Painting Guidelines

Speaker Placement

RCS in-ceiling speakers are designed to be flush mounted in walls or ceilings.

To optimize their acoustics you should follow these simple guidelines:

For best stereo reproduction the speakers should be placed an equal distance

from your listening position and separated so that the angle between them is

between 40 and sixty degrees. The units should be placed with the tweeters

angled toward the ear level of the seated listener.
