MartinLogan Outdoor Living™Foundation

Music System

The MartinLogan Outdoor Living Foundation Music System

includes 8 premium all-season outdoor speakers and 1 all-

season in-ground subwoofer ideal for backyards ranging

from 2,000 to 3,000 sq. ft.

Made of durable UV treated ABS plastic and thick high-

density polyethylene, the Outdoor Living Foundation Music

System can endure the elements while providing years of

trouble-free service.

While installation is relatively easy, MartinLogan’s Outdoor

Living Foundation Music System is designed to be installed

by your authorized MartinLogan dealer.

• Cable Strippers

Power

Any 8 ohm stereo amplifier (for Stereo Setup) or

Any 4 ohm mono amplifier (for Mono Setup)

OVERVIEW

The MartinLogan Outdoor Living Foundation Music System

is designed to deliver seamless, and evenly distributed

sound coverage in an ‘open air’ environment. The following

illustration shows how a daisy chain of satellite speakers and

a subwoofer should be strategically placed to create even,

balanced coverage around the outdoor environment. The

satellite speakers should be spaced from 6 to 10 feet (2.4 -

3 meters) apart for optimal coverage. With a tighter spacing,

more satellites will be required to fill out an area, but with the

advantage of more consistent coverage and volume levels

across the intended entertainment area.

To achieve the best balance between the satellites and

subwoofer, the subwoofer should be placed as close to the

center of the satellites as possible. Keep in mind that this

is simply a suggestion and that your unique environment

may dictate otherwise. If more bass is desired, placing the

subwoofer near a wall or other solid surface will greatly

reinforce the low bass frequencies.

Checklist:

qIdentify the location.

qDetermine the positioning of the satellite speakers

and subwoofer.

qDig the trench according to satellite speakers and

subwoofer to be installed.

qThe trench should be 6”- 8” deep.

PLANNING THE SYSTEM LAYOUT

5|EN

We strongly recommend using burial-rated cable (not

included) when installing the Outdoor Living Foundation

Music System. In addition, it’s critical to use the proper

speaker cable gauge. Please review the chart below.

There are a few considerations before you start digging a trench:

• Ensure that your ENTIRE system is tested prior to installation.

• Ensure that the proposed area is easily accessed and that

the area is not prone to flooding, standing water or where

the speakers and subwoofer can be easily damaged,

kicked or struck.

• Consider overall landscape/garden design and

positioning in relation to the listening area.

Stereo Wiring Diagram (Option 1)

Right Right Right Right

The satellite speakers included in this system individually

present a 32 ohm load to the amplifier. When 4 of them

are connected on each amplifier channel in parallel,

the load to the amplifier is approximately 8 ohms. The

nominal impedance of the subwoofer is 8 ohms per

channel. The satellites and subwoofer feature optimized

internal crossovers so that the subwoofers impedance is not

combined with the satellites. The overall load presented to

your amplifier by the combined system of 8 satellites and 1

subwoofer will be around 8 ohms nominal per channel.

With these considerations in mind, multiple system wiring

possibilities are possible. The following diagrams are

simple, and safe examples of wiring the system to a

traditional 8 ohm stereo amplifier. If using an alternative

wiring or amplification configuration, please take care to

ensure that the impedance presented to your amplifier is

within its published specifications. Failure to adhere to the

above guidance could result in damage to the speakers

and/or the amplifier which MartinLogan will not take

responsibility for and will not be covered under warranty.

Preparing the 4 Conductor Burial Cable (For Stereo Setup)

3. Use a round

cable stripper to

remove the outside

protective cable

jacket to expose

the four color-

coded wires.

Separate the wire

loops as shown.

2. Recommended:

Use a wire tie

(not included) to

keep the wire

loop intact and

it will act as a

strain relief.

4. Cut the red (+)

and black (-)

OR white (+)

and green (-)

wires with cable

strippers and

strip off 1 inch

(25.4 mm) of

insulation to

expose the bare

wire conductor.

1. Starting with the

first speaker and

every speaker/

sub that comes

after, create a

loop approximate-

ly 6” in length.
