Before installing the loudspeakers, ensure that the intended positions in the ceiling/wall are free of any obstruction such as air vents
or any cables that may interfere with the installation. Use the appropriate tools to help you determine suitable locations.
Make sure that there is enough space inside the ceiling/wall to install the product.
Trace around the cut-out template provided, onto the existing ceiling/wall. Cut along the traced line with a suitable tool to create
an opening in the ceiling/wall (fig. A1/ B1, B2 / C1, C2 / D1, D2).
New installation
Use the optional specific mounting kit. Wire up the speakers before installing them.
Installing the loudspeakers
Products from the 1000 Series range include a loudspeaker and a magnetic grille.
Fitting products from the 1000 Series In Ceiling range (1000 ICW6, 1000 ICA6 and 1000 ICLCR5) does not require any tools, thanks
to the Easy Quick Install system!
The 1000 ICLCR5 loudspeaker is supplied with adapters (located close to the corners) allowing it to suit different ceiling depths
(1/2"/12mm to 2 "/54mm).

Fitting In Wall products (1000 IW6 and 1000 IWLCR6) to the wall is done using rotating brackets. To do so, place the loudspeaker
into the cut out opening and turn the screw on the mounting brackets clockwise to tighten it using the Allen key provided or a
screwdriver. If using a screwdriver, make sure that the tightening torque is set to a low value to avoid damaging the mounting
brackets. The loudspeaker is properly mounted when you feel resistance at the end of tightening. Products from the 1000 Series
are heavy and therefore should be installed by a professional.
1000 ICW6/1000 ICA6
1. Rotate the mounting bracket until it snaps onto the mounting frame so that the frame can be passed through the opening (fig. A2).
2. With one hand, insert the mounting frame into the opening in the ceiling/wall so that it is snug against the ceiling/wall (fig. A3).
3. To lock the mounting frame, place your other hand through the opening and with 2 fingers rotate the mounting bracket away
from its original position (fig. A4).
4. Then push the bracket downwards until it stops (fig. A5).
5. Finally, release the bracket and make sure it is secure. Also check that the bracket is not resting on the loudspeaker cable (fig. A6).
Note 1: repeat this process on the other mounting brackets.
Note 2: To unlock the mounting bracket: using 2 fingers, rotate the mounting bracket to the outside, push it up and then release.
6. Connect the pre-stripped loudspeaker wire to the loudspeaker's spring-loaded terminals. It is essential that the connection
polarity for each loudspeaker is correct: the cable connected to the '+' terminal on the amplifier must be connected to the red
terminal on the loudspeaker. Likewise, the cable connected to the '-' cable on the amplifier must be connected to the black terminal.
Stereo image and bass perception will be drastically compromised if these conditions are not respected (fig. A7).
7. The loudspeaker can now be fitted to the mounting frame. To do this, position the grey arrows on the loudspeaker so that they
point towards the open padlock symbol on the mounting frame (fig. A8, A9).
Note: When using In-Ceiling products, the loudspeaker can be securely attached to the ceiling using a sling (not supplied) which
can be hung using the dedicated hook located on the back of the product (fig. A7).
10. 1000 ICA6 loudspeakers have a red positioning arrow on their mounting frame. This arrow is used to point to the final listening
position when installing the product (fig. A12).
11. Positioning the tweeter (1000 ICW6 and 1000 ICA6)
The tweeter can be angled by ±20° and rotated 360°: point it towards the listening station for increased precision of the treble and
stereo imaging (fig. A13).
12. Adjusting the tweeter (1000 ICW6 and 1000 ICA6)
The tweeter level can be adjusted using the switch found on the back of the loudspeaker as shown (fig. A14).
1000 ICLCR5
1. Unlock the safety catch (fig B3).
2. Lift the mounting feet (fig. B4).
3. Measure the ceiling thickness and, if necessary, assemble the suitable adapters (located close to the corners) (fig. B5).
4. Install the product securely using a safety sling (fig. B6).
5. Connect the pre-stripped loudspeaker wire to the loudspeaker's spring-loaded terminals. It is essential that the connection
polarity for each loudspeaker is correct: the cable connected to the '+' terminal on the amplifier must be connected to the red
terminal on the loudspeaker. Likewise, the cable connected to the '-' cable on the amplifier must be connected to the black terminal.
Stereo image and bass perception will be seriously compromised if these conditions are not respected (fig. B7).
6. Insert the product into the wall or ceiling by pressing on each side of the loudspeaker to ensure it is in place (fig. B8), then lock
the safety system (fig. B9).
7. If necessary, it is possible to add a support screw (up to 9). We recommend using screws longer than 3 " (3 "/8cm), and
1/8 1/8
inserting them at the points provided for this purpose, marked with a red arrow (fig. B8).
8. Point the mid-range and tweeter support towards the listening area (fig. B10). If required, adjust the tweeter and mid-range levels
according to the room's acoustics (fig. B10).
9. The 1000 Series loudspeakers are supplied with an opacifying acoustic cloth. Remove the protective film then attach the cloth
to the grille. However, the best audio performance will be obtained without the opacifying cloth.
10. The grille can now be fitted. It is held onto the mounting frame magnetically, which means you only need to align it with the
edge of the mounting frame (fig. B11).
