of your ability to fully understand and fully complete the installation of this TIC

Exterior Installation…
Before you begin the installation of your new TIC outdoor product, please
carefully select the locations of your new TIC products noting any impediments
or obstacles in the wiring path.
In general;
1. Select a reasonably clean, reasonably structurally sound surface for
the installation of your new TIC outdoor patio speakers. This will
prevent movement or excessive vibration during use. This will also
ensure more uniform sound dispersion.
2. Ensure your new TIC outdoor speaker cables or power source if
required, can easily reach your new speakers. Ensuring that there are
no obstructions or difficulties such as concrete paths or architectural
feature impediments. If the cable is surface mounted you must make
sure the cable is placed where it cannot be tripped over, pulled,
abraded or crushed.
3. Wherever possible avoid long term exposure of your new TIC outdoor
speakers to chlorinated solvents, acids such as those often contained
in fertilizers and other solvents which have the potential to eventually
wear the components prematurely.
4. When installing either burial cable or TIC’s in-ground outdoor speakers
please be very aware of any existing in-wall cable, submerged
plumbing, piping such as sprinklers or irrigation and any sub-surface
wiring already in place.
Carefully unpack and check components
Run speaker test prior to exterior installation

A note on Speaker Cable;
TIC recommends the use of our SPC30, 50 or 100’ double insulated high
quality speaker cable, however just about any reasonable speaker cable may
be used including existing runs that may be in place. For standard 8
installations of 10 – 25ft., just about any 16/18 gauge 2 core cables can usually
be used although we would prefer a double insulated or burial spec cable be
used. For longer runs of 25 – 100ft. 10/14 gauge cable can be used however
resistance down the line will become a contributing factor.
Audio Installation Basics articles under Technical Resources for more in depth
exterior audio and cable guidelines.
An Important note on Polarity!
Pleasure proper polarity when connecting your new TIC outdoor speakers.
This is very important and will result in poor sound reproduction and possibly
equipment damage if not connected correctly. This is normally avoided by
ensuring + to + and – to – or as sometimes color coded Red to Red and Black
to Black from your amplified source to your speakers respectively.
5. Once you have checked the components and tested the system ready
for exterior install, recheck your cable runs carefully marking the correct
channel for each speaker.
6. Mount your speakers carefully using the supplied mounting brackets for
each patio speaker.
7. Connect you new TIC Patio Speakers at the speaker end first ensuring
enough “play” in the cable to allow angle adjustment as necessary.
8. Reconnect the speakers to your receiver amplifier being careful to
ensure correct “Polarity” matching.

Maintenance…
Occasional maintenance of your TIC products cannot hurt and may help
greatly. Inspect the installation area regularly removing and twigs, dirt or
particulate matter from impeding or building up around the output grill area. The
units may be cleaned using very mild detergents like dishwashing liquid if
desired. A hose with clean water may also be used but please avoid using high
pressure or forcing water into the grill or acoustic ports.
In very cold climates with moderate to heavy snowfall an old trick from the
major theme parks we supply world wide is to place a plastic bag over the unit
for the winter or periods it may be not in use or under such snowfall.

Trouble Shooting…
Problem
Please Check
Check the speakers are connected to the cable
correctly.
No Sound
Check the speaker cable is connected to the receiver
amplifier correctly.
Check the receiver amplifier is powered “on” at the
mains, is not on “mute”, has no headphones attached
and that the Channels used for the exterior speakers
(usually A or B) is in operation.
Refer to the owners guide that came with your
receiver amplifier.
Most initial problems are simple connectivity, please
try a different connection cable to your outdoor
speakers or equipment.
Check the “balance” control on your receiver
amplifier.
Check all connections and cable to the inoperable
speaker.
No Sound from one
speaker
1. Disconnect the “working” speaker from the
receiver amplifier connection/ channel. Switch the
cord from the non-operating speaker from its current
connection to the “working” speaker connection. If
the speaker now works the problem is your receiver
amplifier.
2. Reconnect as original. Remove the speaker cable
at the “working” speaker directly and connect it
directly to the non-working speaker. If the speaker
now works the problem is somewhere in the original
speaker cable.
3. If the speaker still does not work the problem is the
speaker.
One speaker sounds
distorted, lower
Follow same procedure as above for “No Sound”.
volume or “different”
Check the “tone” setting on your receiver amplifier.
Adjust the Treble and Bass settings on your receiver
amplifier.
Treble or Bass
Check the connections carefully from the amplifier to
your speakers and ensure correct Phase (+ to + and
– to – accordingly). Poor sound replication is
expected from a speakers or speakers out of polarity
or phase.
