Frequently Asked Questions - PRO-6800-W KLIPSCH

What is the recommended amplifier power for the PRO-6800-W?

The Klipsch PRO-6800-W is rated for 100 watts continuous and 400 watts peak. It is recommended to use an amplifier delivering 25 to 200 watts RMS per channel for optimal performance.

What is the cut-out size needed for installation?

The required cut-out dimensions are 10.9 x 14.9 inches (277 x 378 mm). Ensure you have at least 4.1 inches (104 mm) of mounting depth inside the wall or ceiling.

Can the grille be painted to match my decor?

Yes, the grille is white and paintable. Use a high-quality spray paint suitable for plastic. Remove the grille before painting and allow it to dry completely before reattaching.

Is the PRO-6800-W suitable for outdoor use?

While designed primarily for indoor in-wall/ceiling use, the speaker features a moisture-resistant ABS cabinet and can be used in covered outdoor areas (e.g., under eaves). It is not rated for direct exposure to rain or extreme humidity.

What type of wire should I use for installation?

Use 16 to 14 AWG speaker wire. The spring-loaded terminals accept up to 14 AWG. For runs longer than 50 feet, use 14 AWG to minimize signal loss.

How do I adjust the tweeter level?

The PRO-6800-W does not have a built-in tweeter level switch. If you need to adjust high-frequency output, use your receiver or amplifier’s equalizer or tone controls.

Can I install this speaker in a ceiling?

What is the warranty on the Klipsch PRO-6800-W?

Klipsch offers a 5-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. This applies to the original purchaser for non-commercial use.

Is a back box required for installation?

A back box is not required for typical installations, but it may be used to improve sound isolation or meet local fire codes. The speaker is UL 2043 rated for plenum air spaces without a back box.

How do I clean the speaker grille?

Remove the magnetic grille gently. Vacuum with a soft brush attachment to remove dust. If needed, wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or submerge the grille in water.
