1.
Decide if you want standard two speaker stereo sound or one reinforcement subwoofer speaker sound. The OC8 can do either
2.
Chose locations for your speakers. If using two separate speakers, keep in mind your
“sweet stop” the area where you will spend most of your time.
3.
Choose your wiring method: Wall Mount, PVC conduit or Direct Burial cable.14 or 12 gauge low voltage Malibu direct burial cable works fine and is
readily available.
4.
Bury your conduit or wire 18
” below grade to prevent damage by tillers or shovels when planting. Prewire before hardscape concrete.
5.
Insure there is enough room to place the OC8 to enable aiming and rotation.
6.
Mount the U-Bracket first then attach the speakers with the (2) positive locking knobs. Aim the speaker then tighten the knobs to secure in place.
7.
The knobs are a male ¼-20 thread that mate to the 1/4 -20 insert on the speaker. This accommodates other mounts and tamper proof screws.
8.
Carefully identify Left and Right cables at both ends . For proper phasing identify the (+) and (-) on each cable.
9.
Connect the amplifier Left wire to the to the White and Green wire Only on the designated LEFT OC8 speaker. Observe polarity.
10. Connect the amplifier Right wire to the to the White and Green wire Only on the designated RIGHT OC8 speaker. Observe polarity.
11. If using the OC8 as a Subwoofer chose an amplifier with enough power handling capabilities.
12. Before connecting the wires to the amplifier check the impedance with a multi-meter on the resistance scale. It should read about 6.5 ohms.
13. If multi-meter reading is OK then connect to amplifier.
14. If using a volume control I suggest placing it inside the house for easy control and to protect it from the elements.
