INTRODUCTION
Thank you for selecting Sonance Visual Experience Thin-
Line Speakers. Please take the time to carefully read
through the manual and study the illustrations. This extra
time can lead to trouble-free operation and continued
musical enjoyment.
IMPORTANT: Read this section in its entirety before
attempting use of speaker.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Always follow these basic safety precautions when using
your speakers to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,
and injury to prople or objects.
1. Read all the safety and operating instructions before
operating the speaker and retain them for future
reference.
2. Adhere to all warnings and precautions listed on the
speaker and in the operating instructions.
3. Follow all operating instructions.
INSTALLATION
1. Determine the location for the speaker.
2. Perform an obstruction survey to be certain that
there are no studs, conduit, pipes, heating ducts,
pocket doors, or air returns in the wall cavity that
will interfere with the speaker.
3. Position the included cutout template where the
speaker is to be located and pencil an outline on the
wall or ceiling. If you are unsure about obstructions,
drill a small hole in the center of the outline and
insert a coat hanger wire into the hole to feel-around
for possible obstructions.
4. Cut the mounting hole using tools appropriate for
the construction, and run the speaker wires from the
mounting hole to the amplifier location.
IMPORTANT: Consult local building codes before
running speaker wires through walls.
5. Strip 1/4” – 1/2” (6mm – 13mm) of insulation from
each speaker lead. Twist the strands or tin the
exposed wire with solder to ensure that there are no
stray strands.
IMPORTANT: Stray strands that touch each other can
cause a short-circuit that can damage the amplifier.

10. Insert the speaker into the mounting hole (see Fig-
ure 4) and tighten the four screws on the front of
the speaker bae (see Figure 5).
11. The Roto-Lock clamps will automatically rotate into
position and begin clamping the speaker.
IMPORTANT: Always use low-torque settings when
using a screw gun and go slowly; never over tighten.

Figure 4: Inserting the Speaker into the Mounting Hole
IMPORTANT: Adjusting the tension of the Roto-Lock
Clamps to help the speaker sit flat with the surface will
help ensure proper grille contact all the way around
the speaker.
12. Test audio playback by turning on the amplifier and
source to play a signal to the speakers.
13. The VX grille is held in place by several small,
powerful magnets on the speaker frame. Place the
grille against the speaker and the magnets will hold
it firmly in place. When properly installed, the grille
flange should make contact with the surface all the
way around the speaker.
PAINTING THE GRILLES
Sonance Visual Experience Series speaker grilles
completely cover the exposed speaker frame, so only the
grilles (not the speakers themselves) require painting.
1. Remove and save the scrim cloth from the back of
the grille.
2. Prime the grille with a metal primer/bonder in a
spray can. Carefully follow the manufacturerʼs
directions on the can.
3. We recommend using water-based latex paint on
the grilles. Thin the paint with a proper thinning
agent to a ratio of 1:1 paint-to-thinner, and strain it
through a standard mesh strainer to remove any
lumps.
4. Use a small touch-up gun or cap-spray gun with a
#3 tip for painting.
• Set the nozzle with a medium to wide fan.
• Set the pressure regulator to 60psi.
• Lightly spray the front of the grille in three
quick strokes from approximately 10” away.
• Let the paint set for a minute, then turn the
grille 90º and lightly spray the grille again in
three quick strokes.
• Repeat this step until all four sides of the
grille have been evenly painted.
5. While the paint is still wet, inspect the grille and
make sure that excess paint has not collected
underneath the grille frame, and that none of the
grille perforations are filled with paint. If any are,
use compressed air to blow the paint out of the
perforations.
IMPORTANT: If you find any grille perforations that
are plugged with paint after the paint has dried, use a
straight pin or sewing needle to carefully remove the
paint.
6. Optional step. Reattach the scrim cloth to the back
of the grille once the paint has dried. You may need
to use an extremely light single pass coating of 3M
Super 76 spray adhesive.
7. Once the paint has thoroughly dried, mount the
grille on the speaker.
7. The speaker’s positive post is labeled with a red dot;
the negative post is labeled with a black dot.
8. After making all connections, double-check that you
connected amplifier “+” to speaker “+” and amplifier
“–” to speaker “–”.
Sonance Visual Experience Series Speakers feature an
exclusive integral RotoLock® mounting system for quick
mounting directly into existing walls and ceilings.
9. Make sure all the Roto-Lock toggle feet are retract-
ed so that the speaker can fit within the mounting
hole (see Figure 2).
