Frequently Asked Questions - 364765-02 LEGRAND

What type of speaker is the Legrand 364765-02?

It is a 2-way in-ceiling or in-wall speaker from the evōQ 1000 series, featuring a poly woofer and Mylar tweeter.

Can these speakers be painted?

Yes, all evōQ speakers except subwoofers are paintable. Use the included painting shields to protect the drivers.

What gauge speaker wire should I use?

For runs under 10 ft, use 18 AWG; 10-50 ft, use 16 AWG; over 50 ft, use 14 AWG. All LyriQ components accept 18-14 AWG.

How do I ensure proper phasing?

Wire both speakers identically: positive to red terminal, negative to black terminal. Incorrect phasing causes smeared sound and bass loss.

Are these speakers suitable for outdoor use?

They are suitable for moisture-rich environments like bathrooms and saunas, and for outdoor use if not directly exposed to weather.

What are the power handling specifications?

RMS power is 50W, peak power is 100W, with 90dB efficiency.

What is the frequency response?

The frequency response is 60 Hz to 20 kHz.

What size hole is needed for in-ceiling installation?

For the 6.5" in-ceiling model, cut a 7.75-inch diameter hole in the drywall.

Does the speaker come with installation templates?

Yes, each speaker includes dual templates with center markings and paint rings.

How do I attach the grill securely?

Use the provided grill adhesive: insert short strips evenly around the grill slot before attaching the grill cover.

USER MANUAL 364765-02 LEGRAND

On-Q/Legrand offers evōQ™ 1000 6.5" In-Ceiling (P/N MS1650) and In-Wall (P/N MS1651) speakers which are optimized for audio distribution (central sound). They are 2-way speakers that feature Poly woofers and Mylar tweeters (see Figure 1). These speakers come with dual templates with center markings and paint rings.

Disclaimer: Make sure you are in compliance with local building codes before installing these speakers. On-Q/Legrand evōQ™ 1000 Speakers are suitable for moisture rich environments such as bathrooms, saunas and outdoor applications (not directly exposed to the weather).

2. Description

The On-Q/Legrand evōQ™ 1000 speakers are made of a tough semi-flexible plastic frames and feature a perforated metal grill. All evóQ speakers, except sub woofers, are paint-able. They also come with painting shields to protect the drivers while painting. These speakers are suitable for moisture rich environments. They also feature flip out tabs for easy installation and removal.

3. Installation

Installation of the evōQ™ 1000 speakers is best accomplished at multiple times during new construction, at "Rough-in" before the drywall is installed, and at "Trim-out" after the drywall is installed and painted.

A. "Rough-in" steps:

NOTE: It is recommended that a minimum of 16 gauge, 2 conductor wire be used for most applications from the amplifier or volume control to the speaker. Different gauges can, and should, be used based upon the distance of the intended run or quality of installation (see Figure 2).

NOTE: All On-Q/Legrand lyriQ™ Audio components accommodate wire gauges from 18 to 14.

1. Run x/2 conductor (x=gauge preference) stranded speaker wire from the distribution/volume control to the speaker location (pre-wiring).
2. When pre-wiring, leave 4 to 6 feet of wire at the speaker's intended location. Use a strip of cardboard stapled to the joints/studs with a hole through it as a wire place holder for the drywall installers (see Figure 3).
3. Strip off 3 inches or so of the speaker cable jacket to expose the positive and negative insulated wires. Strip 3/8-1/2 inch of insulation off of these conductors.

1. It is recommended to place insulation behind the speaker to provide some damping for the woofer driver. This will yield the best possible sound. On-Q recommends using poly-encapsulated insulation such as Johns Manville Comfort Therm®. If a defined, consistent sound is desired from both speakers in a space, blocking can be installed to yield the ideal cubic footage for each driver. Insulation would then be put in this space during speaker installation. Refer to blocking chart and Figure 4 for details.
2. If installing speakers in a space with an attic above it is recommended that the speakers be boxed in with 1/2 inch MDF (medium density fiber board) or plywood with insulation installed. This will provide a defined acoustic space and protect the speaker. The best possible sound will be achieved by doing this. Refer to the blocking chart and Figure 4 for details.

Note: Make sure you are in compliance with local building codes before installing this speaker in an attic space.

B. "Trim-out" steps:

1. After drywall and/or painting is complete, push the speaker wire through hole, center template over hole, mark with a pencil and cut out with a dry-wall knife.

2. Hold the speaker with one hand, (if speaker grill is off, pay careful attention not to push on the woofer's cone, this can cause permanent contortion of the voice coil, thus producing a mechanical rubbing sound or speaker failure), push in the speaker terminal connectors and insert wires; remove speaker grill. Be sure to have the positive wire in the RED terminal and the negative wire in the BLACK terminal.

NOTE: Wiring both speakers identically as the above instruction states will yield speakers that are “in phase”. If one speaker is wired opposite of the other, the speakers will be “out of phase” with one another. If the speakers are “out of phase” the sound might appear smeared (canned) and a significant loss of bass might be noticeable due to phase cancellation. Make sure every installed speaker is correctly phased.

3 Use one hand to push the speaker into the cut out (again, pay careful attention not to push on the woofer's cone, this can cause permanent contortion of the voice coil, thus producing mechanical rubbing sound or speaker failure) and the other to turn the screws that engage the installation tabs (see Figure 5). Tighten the tabs in a cross or X-pattern until "snug". Be careful not to over tighten the tabs or damage could result. The speaker should appear flush to the surface.

NOTE: If using a cordless drill/screwdriver, it is suggested that the screws be turned until almost tight, then finish tightening via a hand screwdriver.

NOTE: A strip of grill adhesive is provided to more securely attach the speaker grills on final installation. Simply insert several short strips evenly around the grill slot prior to insalling the grill cover.
