Direct Burial Installation
For well draining soils, dig a hole 12" in diameter and up
to 21" deep. Level the speaker in the hole then backfill
with clean sand or soil being sure that the bottom edge
of the subwoofer grill remains at least 1" above grade.
Compact the sand/soil to make sure the speaker will not
shift or settle over time. For poor soils, consult the Poor
Soil Installation Guide.
Note: Hard to dig areas may benefit from a gas-powered
handheld 12" auger (may be rented locally).
Note: Avoid installing in locations that are prone to
flooding.
Hardscape Mount Installation
Once the appropriate location is selected, secure the
recess mount to the surface with fasteners appropriate
for the surface material. Slide the bollard over the recess
mount and orient the speaker in the appropriate direction.
Insert the supplied set screws and tighten in a uniform
fashion so they all make contact with the recess mount
before final tightening.
WIRING INSTALLATION
All Coastal Source speakers feature our patented Coastal
Connector™ for a waterproof direct burial connection.
For connecting to a Coastal Source amplifier just select
the appropriate cable lengths and y-cables and Plug+Play
the speakers to the amplifier. For connection to 3rd
party (non-CS) amplifiers, Coastal Source pigtail cables
are available to convert the Coastal Connector™ on the
speaker to a typical 2 conductor bare wire that can be
spliced in to a conventionally wired system.
Cabling Rules
This speaker is designed to be bi-amplified and has two
inputs: one for the Subwoofer and one for the Satellite.
These two inputs must be crossed over before reaching
the 3-Way Speakers. The HiPass filter for the Satellite
section should be set to play 120Hz and above. The Lo-
Pass filter for the Sub section should be set to play 120Hz
and below.
Coastal Connector™ 12AWG cables can be run up to
300' total per channel without any significant degradation
of performance. Coastal Source systems ship preset for
typical applications. Adjustments should only by made my
Certified Dealers.
Coastal Source speakers operate at 8 ohms. Two speakers
can be paralleled per channel with amps that are stable to
4 ohms and four can be paralleled per channel with amps
that are stable to 2 ohms. Carefully consult the amplifier
manual for low impedance drive ability and stability. All
Coastal Source amplifiers are stable to 2 ohms.

SOUND TUNING
Note that optimal sound tuning is subjective and
specific to each listener so there are no hard and
fast rules for optimizing the sound of a Coastal Source
system. We have designed with flexibility to allow you
to shape the sound to your personal preferences. The
following information is offered as a brief guide. It is
highly recommended to take the time to experiment
and tune the system to achieve your desired sound.
NOTE: Coastal Source outdoor audio systems are the
clearest and most efficient on the market, but they are not
designed to run at 100% volume full-time. If the system
is going to be played at loud volumes for an extended
period of time, Coastal Source recommends setting the
volume to 75-80%.
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
Above Ground - Open area
Large and open sound stage with a clean and leaner
frequency balance.
Above Ground - Near a rear wall surface
Large and open sound stage with a clean and fuller
frequency balance.
Buried Vertical
Medium sound stage with a heavier bass balance.
Subwoofers
Those wanting very high power bass may easily integrate
an additional subwoofer into the system. Since very low
frequencies are omni-directional placement is less critical,
but experimenting with placement is still recommended
since proximity to walls and corners will have a significant
effect on the bass output.
See Coastal Source subwoofers operating manuals
for further information.
Streaming Quality
Today most people stream music from a mobile device
to listen to music. This makes the quality of the streaming
source paramount to the overall quality of the sound of
an audio system. Whether demoing a system for a client,
showing off to your friends, or just listening by yourself,
streaming quality can make a huge difference. Below are
the maximum streaming quality rates available for the most
popular music streaming services (when streaming from
a mobile device). They are listed in ascending order of
maximum quality.
