OWNER’S MANUAL

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

Before installing your speaker, you should consider the placement carefully, taking into account the location of

electrical, plumbing and other fixtures. Contact your dealer for assistance if you are not sure of the best loca-

tion in your particular room environment.

Ceiling Placement: When placing your speaker into the ceiling, it should ideally be located above the pri-

mary listening area. The DT is intended to be used as a single stereo speaker in small listening environments,

walk-in closets, laundry rooms, bath rooms etc. In a large area, it may be necessary to place additional speak-

ers throughout the room to get the optimal effect.

MOUNTING SURFACE PREPARATION

New Construction - Unfinished Ceilings

A New Construction Bracket, SpeakerCraft part number BKT90611 (available from your dealer), may be

installed prior to drywall application across joists (up to 24" on-center) where a speaker will be located.

Insulation material should be in place prior to installing drywall. After the hole is cut and the drywall is

installed, the speaker can then be easily installed following the instructions for mounting under “Finished

Ceilings” below.

Finished Ceilings

Prior to the actual installation of the speaker, it will be necessary to run cables to the speaker location. See

your dealer for more information on cable installation. After the cable has been properly installed, you are

ready to mount the speaker. Following the simple steps listed below will result in a professional looking instal-

lation:

1. Determine the best area to mount your speaker. This area of the ceiling should be free of obstructions such

as electrical conduit, HVAC ducts, or water lines. This can best be determined by noting the placement of

fixtures and gaining access to an attic or crawl space for further analysis of the location of such obstacles.

2. Find the joists nearest the desired speaker mounting location. We highly recommend using a good stud-

finder tool for this procedure. If you are lining up the speaker to some other object or molding in the

room, make sure you consider the size of the baffle flange which extends beyond the mounting hole.

3. Mark the hole. A punch out template for setting the hole is provided in the box. Position the template in

the desired position and pencil an outline on the ceiling.

4. Cutting the hole. CAUTION: This is the most important part

of the entire installation. If you are not certain whether any

obstructions exist behind the desired mounting area, you

should start by cutting a small hole in the center of your

penciled mounting hole with a drywall saw, cutting at a 45º

angle towards the inside of the hole. (See Diagram 1)

Cutting the small hole at this angle will make drywall repair

much easier, using the piece cut out. Once you have deter-

mined that there aren’t any obstructions in your desired

mounting location, start cutting the finished hole at a 90º

angle to the ceiling’s surface.

5. Add insulation. If the area in the ceiling is not already insulated, add an

adequate amount insulation material to loosely cover the back of the

speaker. If the insulation material used is faced with foil or paper, position

the foil or paper away from the speaker.

SPEAKER INSTALLATION

The unique integral four foot mounting system incorporated into your AIM DT

speaker allows for a quick installation by following these easy steps.

1. Remove the grille. It may be necessary to push one or two of the mount-

ing screws, and its attached foot, towards the baffle and against the inside

surface of the grille to force the grille out of its retaining groove.

2. Attach the speaker cable (observing the proper polarity with your amplifier,

+ to + and - to -). Either channel may be attached to either terminal set,

however, be sure that polarity (+ and -) is correct on each channel or the

performance of the speaker will be seriously affected, as one channel will

cancel out the other. (See Diagram 2)

3. Make sure the mounting feet are turned inward to clear the opening,

and insert the speaker into the ceiling. Position the speaker into the hole.

Note: The flange of the speaker is designed to flex and conform to any

small imperfections in the ceiling’s surface. Tighten the four screws on the

front of the baffle only enough to make the flange become snug against

the ceiling. As you tighten the screws, the feet will automatically flip into

an outward position thereby clamping the drywall between the feet and

the flange. (See Diagram 3)

CAUTION: Over tightening may warp the baffle, crack the ceiling, cause

the flange to distort, and make the grille difficult to install.

4. Push the grille firmly into the slot in the speaker baffle.

SPEAKER ADJUSTMENT

Adjusting the Pivoting Tweeters

Once the woofer is positioned, further refinement can be made by pointing

the tweeter towards the listener. Gently pivot the tweeter to point it in the

desired direction (See Diagram 4).

PAINTING THE SPEAKER

If you plan to paint your speaker, we recommend that it be done prior to

installation. If you plan to paint your speaker sometime in the future, it is

best to remove it by simply reversing the steps for “Speaker Installation” listed

above. If it is necessary to paint the speaker while it is still in the ceiling, the

paint mask provided in the carton must be installed in place of the grille while

the flange is being painted with the ceiling. The grille can also be painted,

however, great care should be taken not to clog the holes as this will greatly

reduce the sound quality of the speaker. SpeakerCraft recommends only light

spray painting using 5 parts thinning agent to 1 part paint. Do not paint the

grille while it is attached to the speaker.
