Introduction

BreakInPeriod

Congratulations on your purchase of RBH Sound in-wall speakers! Your speakers are the

result of many years of research and development dedicated to producing high quality

products for home audio and audio/video systems.

This manual is designed to give you, the installer or owner, basic information as to the

speaker’s installation and operation. We recommend you thoroughly read through the

material contained in this manual before installing your speaker. This will ensure that

you have an understanding of how to setup your speakers for optimum performance

and allow for years of listening enjoyment.

Allow 10-15 hours of listening time to adequately break in the speakers. As the speaker

breaks in, the driver suspension will loosen. The result of break-in will be an increase

in low frequency response, improved deﬁnition, clarity and detail.

Features

RBH Sound in-wall speakers use either a swing out dog leg mounting system

with pre-started screws or a pinch ring for fast and easy installation. All RBH

Sound in-wall speakers feature directional swivel tweeters used to direct

the sound to the main listening area. RBH Sound in-wall speakers feature

polyswitch protection circuitry that is designed to protect the tweeter from

being overdriven. This circuit will automatically reset itself once the volume

is turned down or the problem causing the circuit to activate is removed.

Steep acoustic slope crossovers are used to integrate the drivers. The use of steep

crossover slopes allows high power handling, minimized driver interaction anomalies,

and maximizes the clarity with which each driver is able to produce its respective

frequency band.

PaintingtheSpeakers

A paint shield is included with your speaker. This shield can be used to protect the

speaker when painting the speaker rim (frame). If you plan to paint your speaker, we

recommend that it be done prior to installation. If you decide to paint your speaker

sometime in the future, it is best to remove it from the wall. When painting the

speaker, the paint shield provided in the packaging must be installed in place of the

grille. The grille can also be painted. Painting the speaker grille should be done with

a paint sprayer set to ﬁne. Remove the grille from the speaker, peel off the grille

fabric on the back of the grille and set aside. Place the grille on a ﬂat surface. Do not

use a brush or roller on the speaker grille as it will clog the holes. This will greatly

reduce the sound quality of the speakers. Do not paint the grille while attached to

the speaker. Be sure to remove the paint shield from the speaker and replace the grille

fabric to the back of the grille before reinstalling the grille and using the speakers.

RoomSetupSuggestions

With nearly endless placement options, careful consideration for placement of the

in-wall speaker needs to be considered, as installation requires cutting a hole in

your wall! When using the speaker in home theater applications follow the guidelines

illustrated below.

Swivel Tweeter Placement

The swivel tweeter allows sound to be directed toward or away from the listening

area depending on the application. A tweeter aimed toward your listening position

improves imaging and detail. When using a speaker with a swivel tweeter as front/

main home theater speakers or as stereo speakers in a distributed audio system, aim

the tweeter toward the main listening position. For rear/surround speakers aim the

tweeter toward the nearest reﬂecting surface (an adjacent wall or ceiling) for a more

diffuse sound ﬁeld (for more direct sound, aim the tweeter at your listening position).

RBH Sound in-wall speakers are designed on an inﬁnite bafﬂe conﬁguration. This

means a back can is not required for the speaker to perform properly. However, using

an RBH Sound back can will most likely improve the tightness and control the bass

response. RBH Sound in-wall speakers have also been designed to make installation as

easy as possible. Upon opening the speaker boxes you will notice that the screws are

pre-started into the dog legs or a pinch ring. The basic idea behind in-wall speakers is

the speaker is held in place by sandwiching the drywall. A frame around the speaker

conceals the cutout in the drywall and presses against the front of the wall. Behind

the wall, the speaker has a set of dog legs or a pinch ring that screw into the drywall.

CAUTION: Be certain there are no electrical wires, water pipes, heating ducts or any

other obstructions in the planned area of installation before starting to drill or cut

into the wall. If there is an electrical outlet nearby, turn off the circuit breaker to

avoid possible injury.

Installing WITH a New Construction Bracket:

If using a new construction bracket cutting the drywall should not be necessary

continue with “Connecting the Speaker” instructions on the next page.

Installing WITHOUT a New Construction Bracket:

Use the cutout template supplied with the speaker for

guidance in cutting the drywall, following “Using the

Template” instructions below.

Using the Template:

1. These speakers are designed to be mounted between

the framing members. Use a stud ﬁnder to locate

the position of studs. Make sure you have a 2-inch

clearance from the outside of the cutout hole from

studs.

2. Drill a 1/4-inch hole in the center of the area you

plan to mount the speaker. Cut or bend a piece of

wire (a coat hanger works well) to a 90-degree angle.

Insert the wire into the pilot hole and ﬁsh around

to make sure there are not obstructions which will

interfere with the installation.

NOTE: If you must choose another location the pilot

hole can be easily patched.

3. Once a suitable location is found, use masking tape to

temporarily place the supplied cutout template on the

wall, centered over the pilot hole. Draw a circle around

the inside edge of the template.

4. Carefully cut the hole with the appropriate cutting

tool to remove the material inside the circle inscribed by the template.

SpeakerInstallation

SpeakerInstallation(continued)

NOTE: The frame will overlap the cutting edge by about a 1/4-inch which will

mask any minor cutting inaccuracies.

5. Conﬁrm the speaker easily ﬁts into the hole, without any gaps.

Connecting the Speaker:

6. Pull the speaker wire out of the hole and connect

the speaker. Split the two conductors of the

speaker wire apart about 3-inches so they form a

“Y”. Using wire strippers, remove about 1/2-inch of

insulation from each of the two conductors of the

wire to expose the bare metal and twist each of the

conductors into a single unfrayed strand.

The speaker terminals will accommodate any

speaker wire up to 14-gauge. Select an appropriate

wire gauge from the following chart:

18 gauge for up to 50-feet

16 gauge for up to 100-feet

14 gauge for up to 200-feet

NOTE: When connecting a speaker it is very

important to retain the correct polarity (improper

polarity will cause reduced bass performance and

unnatural imaging effects). To do this, be sure the

wire attached to the positive terminal on the speaker (marked [+] or colored

red) connects to the positive terminal on the ampliﬁer. Similarly, the negative

terminal (marked [-] or colored black must connect to the negative terminal on

the ampliﬁer.

Finishing the Installation

7. Slide the speaker into the pre-cut hole in drywall or new construction bracket

keeping the speaker cable above and out of the way to prevent pinching it.

8. Tighten the screws. The dog legs will automatically swing out and tighten

(pinch) themselves against the new construction bracket or the drywall with

the turning of the screws and will hold the speaker solidly in place. Don’t over

tighten screws, if you over-tighten the screws the speaker frame may bend which

will make it difﬁcult for the grille to install properly.

NOTE: If using a drill/driver set the clutch to a low setting to prevent over

tightening and possible damage to the frame or dog legs. If using hand tools,

tighten just until ﬁrm.

9. If the speaker has any tone controls or has a pivoting tweeter, leave the grille off

until you can listen to the speaker. Once the speaker is adjusted install the grille.

NOTE: Handle the grille carefully, as the grille pressure-ﬁts into the installed

speaker. If the grille does not slip in try loosening the mounting screws before

resorting to forcing the grille into the speaker.

Rear Enclosure

The rear enclosure is a rectangular pre-

construction box for in-wall speakers. The

BB-S can be mounted in-between standard

2x4 stud-frame construction and enhances

the sound quality of in-wall speakers. It also

prevents the sound from being transferred

into rooms on the other side of the wall.

Blank Plates

Blank plates are a very clean and efﬁcient

way to cover the holes left in drywall when

a new construction bracket is used. Install

blank plates when in-wall speakers will not be

immediately installed after drywall is ﬁnished.

New Construction Brackets

An excellent way to guarantee placement of

in-wall and in-ceiling speakers prior to drywall,

New Construction Brackets (NCB’s) also make

installation of in-wall speakers faster and easier

by reducing time and mess. Once the drywall

is installed, just connect the speaker to the

speaker wire and install. New Construction

Brackets eliminate the time and need to locate

and cut drywall before speaker installation.
