To install the OSD Black BK-R82SM 6.5 Weather-Resistant in-Ceiling Speaker, you will need the following tools: pencil, drill, tape measure, wire cutter, Phillips screwdriver, utility knife, safety eye wear, gloves, and sandpaper.

Here is a step-by-step installation guide:

1. Preparation: Determine the best place to install the speakers and where they sound the best. Separate the speakers 6-10 feet apart. For Ceiling LCR models, place the speakers with the 15° angled woofer pointed towards the main listening area. If you plan to paint the grilles, do so before installation.

2. Cut Out: Use the included template to trace the outline of the speaker on the ceiling. Cut along the traced line using a drywall saw or rotary drill. Sand down the cut-out edge for a smoother contour.

3. Mounting: Tighten the mounting brackets by turning the screws on the front of the speaker baffle clockwise. The quick-turn mounting system and frame will clamp around the drywall to hold the speaker securely in place.

4. Connection: Before connecting the speakers to the amplifier or receiver, ensure the power is off. Locate the connection terminals on the back of your receiver or amplifier and connect the audio out to the speakers using speaker wire.

5. Adjustment: Some models have a treble contour switch to tailor high frequencies. For models with a pivoting tweeter, you can adjust the sound direction by pressing on the edge of the tweeter baffle.
