We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Overview: The Dual DC265W is a single, 2-way rectangular, in-wall speaker, part of the Architectural Series of speakers. The speakers are designed to work within nearly all interior decorating schemes where in-wall or flush-mounting is feasible. Woofers: The DC265W uses a black 6-1/2" polypropylene woofer with a rubber surround. Tweeters: The DC265W has a 1" silk dome tweeter. The tweeter can be rotated to adjust the angle, up to approximately 20°. The tweeter is wired with a special protection circuitry. Inputs: The speaker's spring loaded posts will accept pin connectors, single banana plugs, or bare wire up to 12 gauge. The speaker terminals are silver plated for corrosion resistance and maximum signal transfer. Paintable: Both the frame and grille can be painted to match the ceiling or wall. A plastic paint shield is included to protect the speakers. Installation: After a 10-15/16" x 7-1/2" cutout is made (either vertically or horizontally), the speaker is installed in the hole and held in place by a rugged plastic screw-set bracket. The only tool required (after the hole is cut) is a #2 Phillips head screwdriver to tighten the clamps. The clamps spread up to 1.375", so they should cover almost any application (most drywall is 1/2" thick). The required depth to install this speaker is 4". Note: Adding 3 to 4 inches of insulation or damping material behind the speaker generally improves the sound quality.
