INTROdUCTION  
Niles once again raises the bar. With our first OS Indoor/Outdoor models, we revealed a radical  
new understanding of loudspeaker capabilities. Niles original OS Indoor/Outdoor Loudspeakers are  
constantly praised for their ability to deliver exemplary reliability and outstanding sound quality.  
These attributes have made Niles OS Indoor/Outdoor Loudspeakers the bestselling loudspeakers  
in their class.  
The goal of our new OS Indoor/Outdoor line-up is to raise this bar with refined appearance  
and superior sonic performance, once again establishing a benchmark by which all others are  
judged. The new Niles OS Indoor/Outdoor Loudspeakers owe much of their performance and  
sound quality advantage to design elements pioneered in the award-winning Niles DS Directed  
SoundfieldTM Loudspeakers. Their engineering advances come from our integrated approach to  
driver and cabinet design. By integrating the woofer basket into the baffle of the cabinet, we are  
able to increase the woofer cone-area to cabinet-width ratio, thus enabling OS Indoor/Outdoor  
Loudspeakers to provide levels of bass performance that substantially exceed their physical size.  
However, deeper and more powerful bass isn’t the only refinement in the new OS Indoor/Outdoor  
line-up. A new and modern style enables OS Indoor/Outdoor Loudspeakers to blend seamlessly  
with architectural elements, both indoors and out. After the installation is complete, you will be  
astonished by the experience of hearing such clean and powerful sound coming from such an  
elegant-appearing loudspeaker.

• Rubber gloves and protective eyewear  
WIRING  
The OS loudspeakers connect to your receiver or amplifier using 2-conductor loudspeaker wire  
(see Figure 3 on the next page). For most applications, we recommend using 16- or 18-gauge  
wire. For wiring runs longer than 80 feet, we recommend 14-gauge wire. The binding posts on  
OS loudspeakers accommodate up to 12-gauge wire directly. Larger sizes can be accommodated  
using spade, banana, or pin connectors.  
TECh TIp  
Wire size is expressed by its AWG (American  
Wire Gauge) number – the lower the number,  
the larger the wire. For example, 12 AWG is  
physically larger than 14 AWG.  
When you run wire inside walls, outdoors or in marine installations, special jacketing or conduit is  
required for a trouble-free installation and conformation to the local and national building codes. If  
you are not sure of the correct wire jacket or type of conduit to use, consult a professional audio/  
video installer, building contractor, or the local building and inspection department.  
INCORpORATING A VOLUME CONTROL  
It’s possible to control the volume of the sound at the loudspeaker location. Plan to wire the system  
so the loudspeaker has its own volume control. Niles makes a wide range of indoor and outdoor  
volume controls with and without muting capabilities. Consult your local Niles dealer for more  
information. The volume control is connected in line with the loudspeaker, so you must connect the  
wire from the amplifier to the volume control and then from the volume control to the loudspeaker  
(see Figure 4 on the next page).

receiver or amplifier  
Figure 4. Incorporating a

RECOMMENdEd AMpLIFIER pOWER  
For optimum performance, we recommend amplifiers with the following power ratings:  
• For the OS 5.3Si loudspeaker, 5 to 100 W per channel  
• For the OS 6.3Si loudspeaker, 5 to 125 W per channel  
Ironically, most speakers are not damaged by large amplifiers but by small amplifiers. If you  
are playing at high volume, a small amplifier will run out of power very quickly. When an amplifier  
runs out of power it creates damaging “clipping” distortion. A large amplifier will play at the  
same volume without distorting. See OperatiOn on page 17 for more information about  
clipping distortion.  
pLACING ThE LOUdSpEAkER FOR ThE BEST SOUNd qUALITY  
Traditionally, when using a pair of stereo loudspeakers, the listener will be positioned directly  
between the left and right loudspeakers to achieve optimum stereo sound. However, in some  
applications this is not possible, especially when a large area of coverage is required. It was  
for these types of applications that the OS “Si” loudspeaker was created. With its ultra-wide  
dispersion pattern, a single OS “Si” loudspeaker is able to project quality summed-stereo sound  
over a larger area. No matter where you are—you are always in the sweet spot. (See Figure 5  
on the next page).

pLACING ThE LOUdSpEAkER FOR ThE BEST SOUNd  
qUALITY (continued)  
Make sure furniture or other objects will not block or reflect sound from the loudspeaker. You  
should have a direct line of sight with the front of the loudspeaker.  
10'  
Figure 5. Illustration depicts the optimum placement zone  
for a listening distance of 10 feet.  
You can control the loudspeaker’s bass output by placement. This is called the boundary effect.  
You will get more bass response by mounting the OS loudspeaker directly to a wall or other flat  
surface (any boundary close to the loudspeaker will reinforce the bass frequencies). You can  
increase the bass output even more by mounting the OS loudspeaker in a corner or under an eave  
(see Figure 6 on the next page). This type of placement gives the loudspeaker two boundaries,  
both reinforcing the bass sounds. Of course, if you wish to hear less bass, try moving the  
loudspeaker away from the boundary (see Figure 7 on the next page).

MOUNTING METhOdS  
The OS loudspeaker should be mounted horizontally. The bracket knobs will keep the loudspeaker  
angled correctly in any position once they are tightened. You can choose from three mounting  
methods to attach the OS loudspeaker to the wall, ceiling, or other mounting surface.  
1. if the loudspeaker is never going to be exposed to sudden accidental impacts, wind,  
waves, or earthquakes, you can simply hang it on a nail using the nail hole(s) on the  
bracket (see Figure 8 on the next page).  
2. The safest and most secure way to mount the loudspeaker is by screwing it to the  
mounting surface using your own hardware (suitable for the surface you are mounting  
to) and the bracket supplied with the loudspeaker (see Figure 8).  
3. There is a threaded brass insert (1/4" – 20) on the back of the oS loudspeakers  
for attaching a custom bracket (see Figure 8). This allows you to position the  
loudspeaker at unusual angles or varying distances from the mounting surface.

Custom Bracket Mounting  
SAFETY FIRST!  
Be careful to use hardware that is designed for the surface you are mounting to. The OS 5.3Si  
loudspeaker (including bracket) weighs 9 pounds. The OS 6.3Si loudspeaker (including bracket)  
weighs 11 pounds. We recommend using attachment methods capable of supporting ten times the  
weight of the loudspeaker and bracket. If you are not sure of a safe way to mount a loudspeaker,  
consult a professional installer or a building contractor.  
Some local building codes require the use of an additional safety cable to mount loudspeakers on a  
wall. If so, the 1/4”-20 threaded insert on the rear of the enclosure can be utilized for securing the  
safety cable to the enclosure. Construction of the safety cable and attachment of the cable to the  
wall need to meet the local building codes.  
If you are not sure of a safe way to mount the loudspeakers or are unsure of your local building  
codes, consult a professional installer or a building contractor for the proper installation techniques  
and requirements.  
You will maximize the useful life of the loudspeaker by placing the loudspeaker so that it receives  
less exposure to the elements. Look for the best overall compromise between sound quality,  
convenience, and exposure. Do not compromise safety.

pAINTING ThE LOUdSpEAkER  
The enclosure, the brackets, and the grilles of the OS loudspeaker can all be painted to match the  
surroundings. Because we want you to preserve the acoustic qualities of the grille, please paint the  
grille according to the grille painting instructions. Make sure you pick a paint that is appropriate for  
the mounting location. There are interior and exterior varieties, and even paint for marine uses. If  
you are not sure what paint to use, consult a paint store professional or a painter.  
TOOLS REqUIREd  
Spray can of primer paint  
The correct paint for the environment/use (oil- or water-based paint is fine)  
Paint brush or applicator (if the paint is not in a spray can)  
awl (for removing the grille)  
Masking tape  
Paint mask (supplied)  
a damp cloth and a dry cloth  
pREpARING TO pAINT  
1. Separate the parts of the loudspeaker. You should remove the brackets and the  
bracket knobs. Remove the grille by hooking it with the tip of an awl and pulling it  
away from the cabinet (see Figure 9 on the next page).  
2. Wipe off the sides of the cabinet, the bracket, bracket knobs, and grille with a damp  
cloth. do not touch or rub the loudspeakers on the front baffle. Make sure everything  
is dry before masking.  
3. Mask off the binding posts and the brass threaded inserts on the back panel with  
masking tape.

4. Mask off the threaded inserts on the top and bottom with masking tape.  
5. Protect the front of the loudspeaker by inserting the supplied paint mask in place of  
the grille.  
pAINTING ThE CABINET, BRACkET kNOBS, ANd BRACkET  
1. apply two thin coats of a sandable spray primer to the cabinet and knobs. The bracket  
doesn’t require a coat of primer.  
2. allow the primer to dry completely.  
3. apply the finish color.  
4. allow the paint to dry completely.  
5. Carefully remove the masking material.  
6. do not reattach the loudspeaker to the bracket until the bracket is mounted. Try to  
keep all handling of the freshly-painted parts to a minimum.  
12  
 
pAINTING ThE GRILLE  
The grille is important to the sound of the loudspeaker. Do not fill the holes of the grille with paint.  
The grille is constructed of aluminum with a perfectly-even powder coat overall. This powder coat  
is an ideal primer.  
If you are using a spray paint, use two thin coats without any primer. If you are using a compressor  
and a spray gun, use the finest, most diffuse setting. Practice on paper if you are not experienced  
in painting with spray paint.  
If you are using an applicator or brush and a can of paint, thin the paint first. Thick paint will tend  
to clog the grille holes. To ensure a uniform appearance, paint the front and back of the grille.  
REpLACING ThE GRILLE  
Carefully fit the grille into its recess so that it is barely in place. Starting with one corner, go around  
the speaker, pushing in the grille a little bit each time, and making sure not to bend the grille out of  
shape. You will feel a positive “snap” when it is in place.

LOUdSpEAkER TO A WALL, CEILING, BEAM, OR OThER  
SOLId STRUCTURE)  
1. Loosen the bracket knobs and remove the bracket from the loudspeaker.  
2. Hold the bracket up to the mounting surface horizontally, so that the loudspeaker wire  
fits through the large, circular wire hole in the middle of the bracket. align the bracket  
so it is square with the surroundings (use a level for accuracy).  
3. Mark the locations of the three oval-shaped screw holes (see Figure 10). Be sure to  
use all of the holes.  
Figure 10. Mounting the bracket  
4. drill pilot holes into the mounting surface.  
5. Pull the loudspeaker wire through the wire hole in the center of the mounting bracket.  
align the bracket so that the holes all line up.  
6. use your hardware to attach the bracket to the mounting surface.

CONNECTING ThE LOUdSpEAkER  
1. For each loudspeaker wire, separate the two conductors on each end so that at least 2  
inches are free.  
2. Strip away 1/2 inch of insulation from each conductor on each end.  
3. if you have any connectors (gold pins or bananas) which you prefer to use, affix them  
to the stripped wire ends now. only gold-plated connectors should be used outside, as  
they will not tarnish or corrode.  
4. if using the bracket to attach to a solid surface, slide the loudspeaker onto the bracket.  
do not tighten the knobs completely. angle the loudspeaker so that the rear terminals  
are accessible.  
5. using correct polarity at the loudspeaker,  
connect left- and right-channel wires to  
the two sets of five-way binding posts,

ChECkING LOUdSpEAkER phASE  
Loudspeaker wire has two conductors. On both your receiver (or amplifier) and each set of  
loudspeaker binding posts, one conductor is attached to the negative (–) terminals, while the other  
is attached to the positive (+) terminals. usually, the wire is marked for your convenience, but the  
marking can be done in the following different ways:  
Stripe on one wire  
Ribbed area you can feel on one conductor  
different colors of metal wire on each conductor  
Fabric strand or string wound into one of the conductors  
Of course, there are some wires that appear completely identical. So be careful, or you might make  
a connection mistake. If you do, the woofer on the OS loudspeaker will not sound as loud or will  
lack bass. If you suspect the sound is not right, or you cannot see any markings on the wire, try  
this simple test:  
1. Play some music with the receiver or amplifier set to Mono.  
2. Listen to the richness of the bass and the loudness of the sound.  
3. Turn off the receiver or amplifier and reverse the connections on one loudspeaker  
terminal only.  
4. Repeat the listening test with the same setting of the volume control:  
if the music is louder now, use the new connections.  
if the music is softer now, revert to the original connections.

OpERATION  
LISTENING AT hIGhER VOLUMES  
Outdoors there are no walls to reflect and contain the sound. It requires more power to achieve a  
reasonable volume of sound outside than it does indoors. You also frequently find yourself very far  
from the loudspeaker. It is possible to turn the volume so high that the amplifier runs out of power.  
This creates “clipping” distortion.  
Clipping distortion makes treble sound very harsh and unmusical. When you hear harsh sounding  
treble from any good loudspeaker indoors or outdoors, turn the volume down immediately! Those  
harsh sounds are masking some much more powerful ultra-high-frequency sound spikes which  
will quickly damage any fine loudspeaker.  
CLEANING  
Clean the OS loudspeaker with a dampened soft cloth or paper towel. If the loudspeaker is  
mounted high up on a wall or ceiling, use a broom to gently brush it off. Hosing off the loudspeaker  
is not recommended, as the tweeter is a precise mechanism which might be damaged by a  
high-pressure stream of water.
