before you begin

New Construction

The Krix Epix inwall speakers have been

developed to suit 45x90mm or 35x90mm

timber stud construction.

The speakers must be installed before the

plasterboard is installed.

To allow the speakers to be installed at the

optimum positions in the wall, timber stud

positions should be mapped out prior to

construction by the installer (see page 5).

Retrofit

Retrofitting of the Epix is possible in 90mm

studwalls.

Retrofitting requires removal of large sections

of plasterboard and possible repositioning of

studwork, wiring etc. to accommodate the

speakers’ large MDF backboxes.

False Walls

Where existing walls are unsuitable for

retrofitting, or timber stud construction is

not used, installers may consider creating a

false timber stud and plasterboard wall to

accommodate the Epix boxes.

Tools Required

Electric drill

No.2 (medium) extended Phillips Bit

Level (optional)

Medium phillips head screw driver

Plasterboarding tools

- Drywall saw, flushing compound etc

Safety

It is recommended that the Krix Epix is installed

by a qualified installer.

Due to the size and weight of the Epix it is

recommended that at least two people install

the Epix enclosure into the studwork.

positioning

front left and right speakers

As a guide, the placement of left and right

speakers used for two-channel stereo should

form an equilateral triangle with the primary

listening position. In many situations room

layout and speaker mounting may require the

front speakers to be positioned closer together

than this recommendation. Excellent results

are often achieved in these situations. It must

be noted however, that placing front speakers

too close together can result in the sound

becoming monophonic and lacking depth.

centre channel speaker

Position the centre channel speaker above

or below your television. Ideally the centre

channel speaker should aim at ear level when

seated.

If an acoustically transparent screen is to be

used, a vertical center channel speaker may be

placed behind the screen. In this configuration

it is suggested that the grille is removed from

the product. (see page 5.)

rear speakers

Rear speakers (for home theatre) should be

placed to each side and/or behind the listener.

Exact positioning will be dependant on your

room layout and the number of surround/rear

speakers in your system (e.g 5.1, 6.1, 7.1 and

beyond).

loudspeaker dimensions

*Do not build studwork with 390mm spacing.

The enclosures have been optimised for use

with 450mm stud centers (see page 5).

This will result in a 5-20mm gap between

the speaker and the stud, which helps to

reduce transmittion of vibrations between the

loudspeaker and the studwork.

**Exact dimensions are provided for the front

baffles. When cutting the plasterboard allow an

extra 3-5mm of clearance for the pre-installed

plasterboard metal capping (see page 9).

be appropriate to install left, center and

right speakers behind the screen. Consult

with a professional installer for further

recommendations.

installation

install enclosure using temporary braces

1. The installation braces are supplied

factory fitted for 10mm plaster board

installation. If 13mm plasterboard is to be

used, follow the instructions printed on

brace. This ensures the front baffle of the

speaker will sit flush with the plasterboard

wall.

Ensure installation brace bolts are tight

before proceeding.

2. Ensure speaker enclosure is level.

3. Fix temporary braces to studwork using

supplied zinc Phillips head screws.

routing speaker cable

6. Route speaker cable through studwork to speaker.

7. Securely screw cable into to binding posts. Take care to assign the same

cable colour or trace to the positive (+) connector on the amplifier, as the

positive (+) connector on the speaker. Repeat connection process with

negative (-) binding post and negative (-) wire.

Single Pair

When using single pair cable,

LF- and HF- must be bridge

and LF+ and HF+ must be

bridged.

Note if bridging connections

are not made, the speaker

will not produce both bass

and treble.

Bi-WIre

When Bi-wiring the Epix

connect LF and HF cables to the

corresponding binding posts.
