OWNER’S MANUAL

OUTDOOR SPEAKERS

UNPACKING

1. Carefully unpack the speakers. If you suspect damage from

transit, report it immediately to your dealer and/or delivery

service. Keep the shipping carton and packing materials

for future use.

2. Verify that the package includes the following items:

– (2) Outrigger/Outrigger jr. Speakers

– (2) Mounting Brackets

– (2) Paint Masks

– (1) Owner’s Manual

PLACEMENT

Although Outrigger/Outrigger jr. Outdoor Speakers are

weather-resistant, they are not weatherproof. We recom-

mending placing or mounting them in a protected location,

such as under the eaves of a roof or on a porch.

For the best stereo effect, separate your Outrigger/Outrigger jr.

Outdoor speakers by at least seven to ten feet (two to three

meters). Use the built-in pedestal for placement on a table or

other surface (see Figure 1). Experiment with different place-

ment to find the most pleasing effect for your system. Placing

your speakers near a wall or other surface will increase bass

output.

For vertical or horizontal mounting on a wall, use the enclosed

mounting bracket and hardware (see Figures 2 and 3). Locate a

stud for secure mounting. Use heavy-duty screws with long

threads (not included) so there is an adequate number of

threads holding the speaker/bracket to the wall. Test the

mounting thoroughly before final installation. Rotate the logo

(on the grille) to match the mounting position.

NOTE: After determining placement position, you may wish to

paint each speaker (see next section).

PAINTING GUIDE (OPTIONAL)

Outrigge/Outrigger jr. speakers have a white finish that blends

with most walls and decor; however, they can be painted to

match other finishes if desired.

REQUIRED TOOLS AND PARTS

• A fast-drying spray-can primer paint, such as Krylon

Sandable Spray Primer #1318

• Oil- or water-based house paint, or spray paint (be sure to

use appropriate exterior house paint for outdoor installa-

tions)

• Masking tape

• A clean, dry cloth

• Pliers and paper clip (optional if you want to paint the

grille)

PAINTING THE SPEAKERS

1. Remove the brackets (and the grilles, if you intend to paint

them; see Painting the Grilles). Place paint masks over the

speakers before painting the frames.

2. Apply two thin primer coats to the speaker cabinets and

knobs. (The brackets do not require a primer coat.)

3. After the primer is completely dry, paint the cabinets,

brackets and knobs. Be sure not to paint the red and black

connection terminals or the plastic area behind the grilles.

PAINTING THE GRILLES

Remove and paint the grilles before inserting them onto the

frames.

1. Using a paper clip bent into a “hook” shape, insert it into a

grille near the corner, and pull the grille away from the cabinet.

2. Apply two thin coats of paint (primer is not required). Be

careful not to let the paint clog the holes in the grilles.

3. After the paint is thoroughly dry, reinsert each grille by

placing it in the cabinet and letting it “snap” into place.

ENGLISH

UNDERSTANDING POWER RATINGS

An A/V (audio/video) receiver with limited power output can

actually cause damage to your speakers. When played beyond

its power capability, it will go into clipping. This generates

spurious high-frequency signals which, when routed to the

tweeter, can cause it to overheat and fail.

WIRING THE SYSTEM

After placing the Outrigger/Outrigger jr. speakers, you are ready

to wire them. First turn off all audio system power. Use high-

quality speaker wire (#16 gauge or heavier) to make your connec-

tions. Use weatherproof wire for outdoor installations. Consult the

owner’s manuals that were included with your amplifier or receiver

to confirm connection procedures.

Strip the ends of the speaker wires about 3/8" (1cm). Twist

the wire strands together for terminal insertion. Observe polar-

ities when making speaker connections, as shown in Figure 4.

Outrigger/Outrigger jr. speakers have screw-down terminals for

easy wiring. Open the terminal shell by turning it counterclock-

Figure 4. An example of how to connect Outrigger/Outrigger jr.

speakers to a stereo receiver.

wise to expose the opening in the post. Insert a wire from

each + terminal on the back of the amplifier or receiver to the

respective + (red) terminal on each Outrigger/Outrigger jr.

speaker.Turn the terminal shell clockwise until it secures the

connection. Similarly, connect the – (black) terminal in the same

way.

If desired, you can use banana plugs (available at your local

electronics store) to make these connections.

IMPORTANT! Do not reverse polarities (i.e., + to – or – to +)

when making connections. Doing so will cause poor

imaging and diminished bass response.

Overdriving the power amplifier must be avoided. It is always a

good idea to choose a receiver with more power than you

need. (Refer to power ratings in Specifications on the next

page.)

IN CASE OF TROUBLE

If a problem occurs, make sure that all connections are

properly made and clean. If a problem exists in one loud-

speaker, reverse the connection wires to the left and right

system. If the problem remains in the same speaker, then the

fault is with the loudspeaker. If the problem appears in the

opposite speaker, the cause is in another component or

cable.

In the event that your Outrigger or Outrigger Jr. ever needs

service, contact your local Infinity dealer or distributor or
