Installation and Usage Guidelines
Professional Installation Recommended
Due to the specialized nature of underwater audio systems and the importance of waterproofing and electrical safety, I strongly recommend having this speaker installed by a qualified pool technician or electrician.
Key Installation Points
- Install the speaker at least 1 meter deep to avoid sound disruption from surface currents.
- Use with the required SL600TC isolating transformer (sold separately) for each speaker.
- Connect to a low impedance amplifier only, never directly to mains power.
- For stereo sound, install at least two speakers to prevent amplifier damage.
- Consider using a poolside junction deck box (like PU10N) for easier future access.
Best Practices for Optimal Performance
- Avoid overpowering the speaker to prevent damage.
- Do not apply bass boost, as excessive bass frequencies can damage the unit.
- For pools up to 20m x 10m, two speakers are typically sufficient for good coverage.
- Never use these speakers out of water, as overheating may occur.
