Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing your new Wisdom Audio Loudspeakers. They
incorporate many features designed to give you a lifetime of performance
and pleasure.
While we expect your local Wisdom Audio dealer to take care of the setup and
calibration of the system, we recommend that you review this and the other
manuals for the components in your system in order to better understand the full
system capabilities.
You do not have to do anything to register the warranty for your
Wisdom Audio products.
Please keep your sales receipt with the serial numbers of each component in a safe
place. Should you move or lose touch with your original dealer, it will serve as the
proof of warranty.
In the unlikely event that your loudspeakers ever require service, please contact
the dealer from whom you purchased them. Should you move or lose contact with
your original dealer, please contact the factory at (775) 887-8850 or by email at

Installing the ICS7a
The Wisdom Audio Sage Series ICS7a in-ceiling speaker is shipped fully
assembled. Please use caution when unpacking the ICS7a so as not to be injured
by the weight of the unit.
1. Using the installation template included in the box, tack or tape the
template to the ceiling where the speaker module is to be installed.
2. Using a pencil or pen trace the outline of the cutout for the speaker.
3. Cut out the outline traced on the ceiling.
4. Carefully remove the the magnetic grille, gripping the edge of the
grille and lifting it off the speaker from one side to the other to avoid
damaging the grille. Lay the grille on a flat surface.
5. Reach into the opening you cut into the ceiling and push any
insulation out of the space where the speaker module will be mounted.
Make sure insulation is not blocking the area in the ceiling where the
dog toggles will rest. If there is not any insulation in the ceiling, loosely
fill the space with insulation to reduce cavity resonances and improve
the overall performance.
6. Hold the speaker module near the cutout in the ceiling and connect
the cable to the + and - connectors on the rear of the speaker module,
paying attention to the polarity.
7. If the IC-LAT accessory was purchased to make the installation more
precise, attach it to the speaker module now as shown in Fig. 1. on the
next page. The guide tabs on the IC-LAT must be aligned with the
guide holes on the top of the Planar Magnetic Transducer housing.
A. If the IC-LAT is used, proceed with step 8. If the
IC-LAT is N T used, skip to step 9.

8. If the IC-LA is used: Turn the laser on the IC-LAT on by rotating the
thumbscrew slowly in a counter-clockwise direction until the laser is
activated. Rotate the speaker module until the IC-LAT laser is pointing
to the desired listening position. Tighten the four screws that control
the dog ears until the speaker module is fixed tightly to the ceiling.

9. If the IC-LA is NO used: Locate the directivity indicators on the
rim of the speaker module, Fig. 2. Rotate the speaker module until the
directivity indicators are centered on the desired listening position.

10. Place the grille onto the speaker module so the scrim is facing the
speaker module and the edge of the grille slightly wraps the edge of
the speaker module. The grille is secured to the speaker module
with magnets and will gently snap into place.

Vertical Sound Dispersion
A sound radiation pattern demonstrates how sound pressure is spread from a
loudspeaker out into the room surrounding the loudspeaker. In the diagrams
below the ICS7a has a normalized vertical radiation pattern that disperses sound
uniformly across the field of sound radiation. The ICS7a was designed to maximize
sound levels throughout the listening area.

8
Horizontal Sound Dispersion
In the diagrams below the ICS7a does not have a normalized horizontal sound
radiation pattern. This is caused by a principle of mathematics called a Head
Related Transfer Function (HRTF). HRTF explains how our ears understand sound
that comes from above us. The ICS7a horizontal sound radiation pattern is
produced by optimizing the HRTF for maximum sound levels throughout the
listening area. The Extended Coverage Waveguide (ECW) not only creates a wider
horizontal spread of sound dispersion but also affects the distance of the sound
dispersion. This is why the use of the ECW is highly recommended for all surround
channels but not for the main Left, Right or Center channels.
Room Placement Multi-Channel
Audio
The ICS7a was designed to give a full theater experience from an in-ceiling
speaker. If used in a multi-channel configuration special attention must be taken to
ensure the loudspeaker’s performance is not diminished by boundary effects.
Installing the loudspeaker too close to the adjacent walls will cause the dynamic
range to be amplified beyond factory recommendations. Similarly, placing the
loudspeaker too far from the adjacent walls will cause the dynamic range to be
diminished below factory recommendation. The diagrams below show where to
place the ICS7a loudspeakers relative to the listening area for both five and seven
channel systems.
Two important rules to note when placing the ICS7a for proper boundary
considerations are:
1. The ICS7a must be between 12-18” from one adjacent wall.
2. The ICS7a must be a minimum of 30” from any of the adjacent walls.

Room Placement for Distributed
Audio
The ICS7a may be used in high quality distributed audio applications. If used in
this configuration special attention must be paid to ensure the loudspeaker’s
performance is not diminished by boundary effects. Installing the loudpseaker too
close to the adjacent wall will cause the dynamic range to be amplified beyond
factory recommendation. Similary, placing the loudspeaker too far from the
adjacent wall will cause the dynamic range to be diminished below facory
recommendation. The diagrams below show where to place the ICS7a
loudspeakers in rooms of different shapes for distributed audio.
The two most important rules to note when following the boundary rules are;
1. The ICS7a must be between 12-18” from one adjacent wall.
2. The ICS7a must be 30” or farther from any other adjacent walls.
