INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS  
Prior to the actual installation of the speakers, it will be necessary to run cables to the speaker location. See your Authorized  
SpeakerCraft dealer for more information on cable installation. After the cable has been installed, you are ready to mount  
the speakers.  
Preparation for and mounting of the speakers can happen at two different stages. If you are building a new ceiling, follow  
the section titled INSTALLATION PREPARATION - NEW CONSTRUCTION. If you are placing the speakers into an existing ceiling,  
follow INSTALLATION PREPARATION - FINISHED CEILING. There are different considerations for each application. Please care-  
fully follow the recommendations for your application.  
INSTALLATION PREPARATION - NEW CONSTRUCTION  
When installing the speakers into a newly built ceiling, please follow these instructions carefully:  
1. Determine Placement  
Determine where in the ceiling the speakers will be placed using the recommendations under SPEAKER  
PLACEMENT. Pay careful attention to the section on avoiding obstructions.  
2. Mount InstaLLock Bracket  
For best results, mount the SpeakerCraft InstaLLock New Construction Brackets for the AccuFit CRS7 Series  
(Part No. BKT90611) following the instructions included with the bracket.  
3. The Location is Ready for Drywall  
The bracket provides a stable opening around which the drywall installer can cut out an opening, providing a perfect  
location for installation of the AccuFit CRS7 Series speaker.  
INSTALLATION PREPARATION - FINISHED CEILING  
When the speakers will be installed into a finished ceiling, please follow these instructions carefully:  
1. Determine Placement  
Determine where in the ceiling the speakers will be placed using the recommendations under SPEAKER  
PLACEMENT. Pay careful attention to the section on avoiding obstructions.  
2. Locate Obstructions  
Find the joists nearest the desired speaker mounting location. The use of a good stud-finder tool is highly recommended  
for this procedure. Make sure that there are no joists or obstructions where you plan to install the speaker. Read “Checking  
for Obstructions” under the section SPEAKER PLACEMENT.  
3. Trace Template  
Place the cut-out template at the location you have decided to place the speaker. Use a few pieces of tape or small  
tacks to hold the template in place. Trace an outline on the ceiling with a pencil.  
4. Cut the Hole  
CAUTION: This is the most important part of the entire installation. If you are not certain whether or not an obstruction exists  
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. Cut at a 45˚ angle towards the inside of the hole (See Figure 3). Cutting the small hole at this angle  
will make drywall repair much easier as the piece cut out can be installed neatly back into the hole. Once you have  
determined there are no obstructions in your desired mounting location, start cutting the finished hole at a 90˚ angle to  
the ceiling surface.

SPEAKER INSTALLATION  
The unique integral four foot mounting system incorporated into each speaker  
allows for quick installation following these easy steps:  
Figure 4  
1. If the grille is on the speaker, remove it. It may be necessary to push one or two  
of the mounting 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: +  
(red speaker input) to + and (black speaker input) to . Make sure the left  
channel of the amplifier is connected to the left speaker, and the right channel  
is connected to the right speaker.  
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 surface. Tighten the 4 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 (See Figure 4),  
clamping the drywall between the feet and the flange.  
CAUTION: Over tightening may warp the baffle, crack the ceiling, cause the flange to distort, and make the grille difficult to install.  
PAINTING THE SPEAKERS  
If you plan to paint your speakers, we recommend that it be done prior to installation. If you decide to paint your speakers  
sometime in the future, it is best to remove them by simply reversing the steps for SPEAKER INSTALLATION listed above. When  
painting the speakers, the paint masks provided in the carton must be installed in place of the grille. The grilles 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  
speakers. Before painting the grilles, remove the material under grille. Place this material back in place once the grille has  
been painted. SpeakerCraft recommends only light spray painting using 5 parts thinning agent to 1 part paint. Do not paint  
the grilles while they are attached to the speaker. If it is necessary to paint the material under the grille, follow the same  
procedure used to paint the grilles.  
ADJUSTING THE FREQUENCY RESPONSE  
The output of the tweeter on the AccuFit CRS7 Three can be adjusted to suit any environment. In general, we recommend  
leaving all of the adjustments at the flat (0dB) setting. To determine which settings will be appropriate for your speakers, you  
may need to experiment until the desired sound is achieved.  
Selecting the Treble Setting on AccuFit CRS7  
To select a setting, simply use a finger to move the switch mounted on the inner side of the speaker to the desired setting  
(See Figure 5).  
Frequency Settings  
When selected, the settings will have the following result:  
-3dB: Reduces the loudness of the selected frequency  
0dB: The selected frequency remains at neutral level  
+3dB: Increases the loudness of the selected frequency
