Speaker Installation Notes
THESE NOTES MUST BE READ IN
CONJUCTION WITH THE CASA
INSTALLATION MANUAL.
Unpacking
Check the contents:
•2 x CASA Coaxial drive units with
on-board amplifiers
•8 x Drive unit fixing screws
Damping the wall/ceiling cavity
Loosely fill the section of the cavity with
wadding. Fibreglass and mineral wool
matting supplied for heat insulation are suit-
able, but not closed cell foam or expanded
polystyrene. Check that there is no debris
that may fall into the speaker (especially in
ceiling mount situations).
IMPORTANT: YOU SHOULD CHECK THAT
THE MATERIALS YOU USE MEET THE LOCAL
FIRE AND BUILDING REGULATIONS.
Fitting (Figure 1)
Offer up the drive unit to the frame and attach
the cables as described in the CASA
Installation Manual. To avoid rattles, tie down
loose cable near the speaker with clips,
mastic or tape.
Feed the drive unit into the frame and using
the screws provided (4 for each drive unit),
secure it to the wall frame.
Before fitting the grille, check the operation
of all the loudspeakers in the installation.
When you are satisfied that the installation
is performing correctly, push all the grilles
into the wall frames.
Avoid touching the drive units, especially the
tweeter, as damage may result.
Customising
Decorate before the drive unit is fitted.
Do not paint the drive unit area. The drive unit
should be removed if the frame/grille
is to be re-decorated at a later date.
