The direct plug-and-play connections reduce installation time to less than an hour. This system can be installed in five simple steps.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1
Set Up the Amplifier on a Flat Surface

The Bluetooth amplifier is powered by high-quality chipsets for consistent connection, superior range, and effortless connection. Place your amplifier in a weather protected space. It is important to keep the amplifier in a dry area to ensure performance and longevity.

Step 2
Lay Out the Main Cable Where You Want Sound Coverage

Proper cable placement is crucial because it determines the location of your speakers. The T-connectors are 12 feet apart to help you effectively position your speakers. Outdoor stereo separation is best at about 8 to 10 feet apart. If you want to expand your system in the future, a well planned layout will simplify this process.

Step 3
Install Outdoor Speakers and Adjust Angles

It is important to plan your layout and make a mark where each speaker will be placed. A ground stake is included for mounting. The speaker arm adjusts 150 degrees and locks securely in place, minimizing sound spillover into unwanted areas. If you are looking to expand, the system can scale up to eight speakers.

Step 4
Install the Subwoofer in the Ground or on a Hard Surface

The subwoofer design supports installation on the ground, surface, deck, or buried in-ground to fit any outdoor landscape environment. The subwoofer has a 6-foot prewired cable. This can be plugged into any T connector. Positioning it near a wall will deliver deeper bass.
