BumpBack ™ Woofer Magne t Niles engineers have utilized a unique motor construction enabling far greater “throw” or voice coil excursion. This allows a high level of bass performance to be achieved.
Ins t alla tion C onsider ations Recommended A mplifier Power For satisfactory performance, we recom - mend an amplifier with a power rating of five to sixty watts for the MP5; and five to seventy-five watts for the MP6.

er, so you must connect the wire from the amplifier to the volume control and then from the volume control to the speaker. Speaker Wire Use 2-conductor speaker wire when con - necting MP speakers to your receiver or amplifier . For most applications, we rec- ommend you use 1 6 or 1 8 gauge stranded wire.

Ins ta llation F undament als Running the Speaker Wire in New Construction If you have doubts about whether you are capable of installing a Niles MP loud- speaker in your walls, consult a Niles dealer or professional installer. They have special tools, techniques, and experience to make the impossible possible.
Try to line the holes up perfectly, because it makes pulling the wire much easier. A good technique is to snap a chalk line across the face of the studs or against the bottom of the ceiling joists. Then work backward so that you can always see the holes you have already drilled.
Identify where all of your electrical, phone, and TV wiring is likely to be and plan to route around it all. You can acci- dentally induce 60 Hz hum on your speakers if you run your speaker wire right beside electrical wire for more than a few feet. T ry to keep speaker wire running par- allel to power cables at least 3 feet away.
