Tools & Items

The gauge of wire used can have an impact on the performance of your speakers.

Use a multi-stranded wiring designed for amplifier to speaker connections. Which

gauge to select depends on the length of wire to be used on any particular speak-

er. The longer your run is, the larger your wire size must be.

Installation Manual

Explorer Collection™ Manual

Ideally, the two speakers should be

placed an equal distance from the

listener. If the room has a lower ceiling,

the speakers can be closer together.

Also, if the speaker placement is

intended for standing (as opposed to

sitting) listeners, the speakers can be

closer together.

Auxiliary Room (2 Speaker Placement)

The Le Rear (LR) and Right Rear

(RR) speakers should be installed just

behind the listener, one on either

side. The Center Channel (CC) speaker

should be placed above and slightly

in front of the television, with the Le

Front (LF) and Right Front (RF) speakers

placed equidistant to either side.

Strip ¼ to ½ inches (6 to 12 mm) of the

insulation o both ends of the wire. To

avoid stray strands, twist them at the

end. Connect the wire to the amplifier,

and make sure the wire connected to

the le speaker output will be routed

to the le speaker, right output to right

speaker, etc.

1. Installing the Wire

Use a two conductor wire that allows you to identify one conductor from the

other. This designation may be obvious or as subtle as a ridge on one conductor.

It’s crucial that you keep track of which wire you use for positive (+) and negative

(-). Typically if the wires are colored red and black, the red wire is used for positive

and the black wire is used for negative, but sometimes other colors or patterns

are used. You can choose whichever color of wire you want to be positive and

negative as long as you remain consistent throughout the install.

On both your amplifier and your speaker the connectors will be identified as red

for positive and black for negative. It is very important to look carefully at the

speaker wires and be certain that the same wire that is attached to the positive

connector in the amplifier is attached to the positive connector in the speaker.

Wire

Explorer Collection™ Manual

Plan how you’ll route the wire to the desired speaker location. There are several

methods for routing the wire, and you may need to combine several of them.

Wire Routing

One option is to li up the carpet and

route “tape wire” under the carpet.

Under the Carpet

The wire can be routed behind the

baseboard by cutting a groove out of

the back of the baseboard, or by buy-

ing special baseboard designed for

concealing wires.

Behind the Baseboard

When available, you can route the wire

through an attic or crawlspace.

Attic or Basement

When running wires through a wall, be

sure to avoid all obstacles such as AC

wiring, pipes, and ducts.

Through Walls

If these speakers are being installed in a new home during construction, the

installation process will be a bit dierent (although much simpler). For these

situations, it’s recommended you purchase a bracket. Instructions on how

to install the speakers are provided with the bracket, or can be found on our

website. Visit www.originacoustics.com for more information.

For New Construction

Explorer Collection™ Manual

When you’ve decided on the locations for all of the speakers, use the template

to trace a circle lightly in pencil where the hole should be. (If you don’t have a

template, check the Specifications section for cutout sizes.) If you’re unsure

on whether there may be obstacles (such as pipes or wires) where you plan on

installing the speaker, drill a ⅛ inch hole in the center of the circle, then put a bent

coat hanger through the hole to feel around. Use a keyhole or drywall saw to cut

the hole.

3. Cutting the Hole

In some situations the speakers may look better if the color matched the walls,

ceiling, or trim in the room. This can be accomplished by painting the grille. The

grille must be painted with spray paint, and most hardware stores will mix a can

of paint to match whatever color you need. Before painting, carefully remove the

thin cloth on the underside of the grille. Lightly spray the front of the grille with the

paint from a distance, being careful not to plug any of the holes. Diluting the paint

with paint thinner will lessen the risk of filling any holes. If a hole gets plugged use

a can of compressed air to open it. Once the paint is dry, put the cloth back on

the grille.

Bayonet Ring

Push Tabs

Against Rail

Adjust the clips so that they’re positioned at the top of the rail. If they’re not al- ready

there you can do this by pushing the release tabs (or metal “buttons”) on the inside

of the rail and pulling the clips to the top of the rails. Insert the bayonet ring into the

hole in the ceiling by gently bending the clips inward. Reach inside the bayonet ring

and push the clips down so that the bayonet ring is firmly in place, but not too tight.

If for some reason the bayonet ring needs to be removed, reach inside and push the

release tabs to fully remove the clips. Aer the clips have been removed, the bayonet

ring can be taken out.

5. Connecting the Wire

RED

BLACK

To further maintain installation integrity,

the Explorer collection uses screw-down

Phoenix connector. Note the positive (+)

and negative (-) indicators on the connector

and make wire connections appropriately.

Ensure that the positive wire is being

attached to the positive connection and

the negative wire is being attached to

the negative connection. If the negative

and positive wires are switched, speaker

performance will be drastically impacted.
