Frequently Asked Questions - DT6.5LCR DEFINITIVE TECHNOLOGY

How do I paint the grille of my DT6.5LCR speaker?

Remove the grille and place it on a drop cloth. Use only spray paint (custom spray can or latex paint via spray gun). Apply thin coats at approximately 60 degrees from the grille surface, spraying from at least 3 different directions for even coverage. Do NOT use a brush or roller, as this will clog the mesh and degrade sound quality.

Can the tweeter be aimed?

Yes, the tweeter is pivotable. After installation, rotate the tweeter so the arrow on its back points toward the desired listening area, then gently push the tweeter in that direction for improved imaging and soundstage.

What are the cutout dimensions for the DT6.5LCR?

The cutout must be 12-3/4” (32.3 cm) long and 7-1/4” (18.42 cm) wide. Ensure the hole is at least 2” (50 mm) from adjoining walls, ceilings, or internal obstructions.

What is the recommended amplifier power for the DT6.5LCR?

The recommended power range is 10 to 200 watts per channel. The speaker is compatible with 8 Ohm amplifier outputs.

How do I connect the speaker wires?

Strip 1/2” (12 mm) of insulation from each conductor. Connect the wire from the amplifier’s red (+) terminal to the speaker’s red (+) terminal, and black (-) to black (-). Push down on the terminal top to reveal the hole, insert the wire, then release to secure.

Is the DT6.5LCR suitable for use as a front, surround, or center channel?

Yes, the DT6.5LCR is designed for LCR (left/center/right) applications as well as surround or distributed audio. It can be installed in walls or ceilings. For surround, aim the tweeter toward a reflecting surface for a diffuse sound field.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a pencil, level, drill, drywall saw or keyhole saw, screwdriver (or power drill with adjustable torque set to 7 in-lb), and wire strippers. Ensure you have at least 18-gauge speaker wire.

How do I secure the speaker in the cutout?

Loosen the locking arm screws (counter-clockwise 1/2 to 1 turn) so the arms flip inward. Place the speaker into the cutout, then tighten the screws clockwise to rotate the lock arms outward, clamping the speaker to the wall or ceiling. Do not overtighten.

Can I use the DT6.5LCR in a fire-rated ceiling?

Yes, Definitive Technology offers optional fire-rated enclosures that meet UL 1480 and ULC S475 standards. These are recommended for commercial or multi-family installations, and may also be used in residential settings for added safety.

How do I clean the speaker?

Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the grille and frame. Do not use water, solvents, or abrasive cleaners. Avoid touching the woofer or tweeter cones directly.

Aiming the Tweeter

A twelered one toward your listening position improves imaging and sets. To aim the tweler, first in all the speakers in the desired location. Rotate the tweler so that he answers on the tweler's backside is pointing in the direction you wish to aim the tweler [Figure 5] then gently post the tweler in her direction [Figure 6]. When using 2T Series speakers as fronts in a none-theater setup or an extreme speaker in a distributed audio system, use the words above the main listening position. As soon/surround speakers installed in walls or ceilings, then the tweler toward the nearest reflecting picture (on out-of-room wall or ceiling) for a more of these sound field. For more direct sound, aim the tweler at your listening position.

Installation Cautions

Heilding DT Series speakers requires still in using tools such as a tool, somewhere, axes and power tools. Installation sites enable running wires through walls. You should have a thorough understanding of local building and fire codes and a familiarity with the area behind the wall or ceiling into which you can to install your speakers. When cutting ropes and running walls through walls/zeeling you run the race-cutting electrical wires or water pipes, thereby curing safety tunnels and property damage. If you're in any door that you possess the necessary skills or tools to install these speakers, contact your Definitive Technology dealer, general contractor or professional intakelet.

Required Tools

Installation Procedure

• You must first install speaker wires that meet appropriate building and fire codes before installing the speakers. Use at least 18 gouge wire or heavier to ensure optimum sound quality.
• Noise sure the material into which you plan to mount the speakers [plaster, crystal, pointing, stone, etc. I can support the weight of the speakers.
• Note sure the locations you select do not encrocal studs, electrical wiring or plumbing. From no installation, hold the speaker with grille on in your chosen location or make sure safely clears obstacles such as studs corners, beams, lighting fixtures and door/window frames. Your cutout must be or less 2" (50 mm) from adjoining walls or ceiling, internal studs or plumbing.
• Using the supplied template, twice the installation location with a pencil. You can do this by holding the template in your preferred location and tracking around it. In the case of the rectangular mode (DT6.5ICR and DT8.CR) use a square level to square and level the template. [Figures 8 & 9]
• Carefully cut the hole with the appropriate cutting tool for your wall or ceiling material. Start the hole by drilling a hole on the inside of the tracing (with the drill bit just inside the line). Use this hole to insert the screw or knife end begin cutting. [Figure 10]

- Once you have cut the holds, pull the speaker were out of the hold and connect two speakers. Step 1/2" inch (12 mm) of invitation to the one of the two conductors of the wire to expose the base metal and total each of the conductors in a single uncolyzed band. Note that one of the terminals on the rear of worn speaker is marked with [4] and the other block [1]. Make certain that you connect the wire from the red terminal [1], of your amplifier or receiver to the red terminal [2], or your speaker and the wire from the black terminal [1] of your amplifier or receiver to the block terminal [1] on your speaker. Most wire has some kind color (such as color-coding, roasting or writing), on one of the two conductors to help you minimize consistency [Figure 1.1a]. In the case of the [1] 6.55(3) single speaker series model, bolt-left and right ornamental speaker wires are connected to the speaker (Figure 11b).

- Push down on the top of the terminal to reveal the wire hole in the side of the terminal post and insert the wire into the hole [Figure 12] Release the pressure on the terminal to secure the wire.

- Loose the rotating lock arms by turning the lock arm screws on the front of the speaker counter clockwise 1/2 o 1 turn, just enough to allow the lock arm to move freely. [Figure 13]. Make sure that the rotating lock arms are flipped in words [Figure 14] so that your speaker fills into your cutout.

- Place the speaker carefully into the output. If you have a level, use it to help you correctly align rectangular speaker models. Tighten the lock on screws with a screwdriver [Figure 15]. This will rotate the lock ends [Figure 16] and secure the speaker to the wall/casting.

Do not over-tighten the lock arm screws. If you are using a powered screwdriver or drill, set the torque in a value of 7 in. - In. (Boltv - mt) install the grille on the speaker frame. Powerful magnets take the grille in place.
