Installation
Prepare the Mounting Hole
Before finalizing the speaker location, check to make sure there are no
fixtures, pipes, air ducts, joists, or other possible obstructions. If
applicable, use a good quality stud finder to locate joists.
To identify obstructions, do the following:
lUse a drywall saw to cut a small hole at a 45° angle. An angle cut
simplifies repair since the removed piece can be reinserted to help
plug the hole.
lUse a piece of stiff cable, bent into an L shape, with one end long
enough to explore an area equal to the size of the speaker. Insert the
cable into the hole, make sure it rotates freely in a complete circle
and that there is sufficient depth.
If there are no obstructions, use the supplied template to trace an
outline of the mounting hole on the ceiling. Cut the final mounting hole
at a 90° angle to the ceiling.

2. Use a Philips screwdriver to turn the screw inside each clamp to
tighten the clamps and secure the bracket in the ceiling.
3. To secure the flush mount kit to the drywall, use a screw gun/drill to
drive drywall screws through the mounting holes in the flange.
Finish the Drywall
1. With an applicator (not included), apply joint compound over the
bracket to seal and blend the bracket into the ceiling.
2. Apply the joint compound beginning 6-8in. (152-203mm) from the
flush mount kit's edge and then feather outward 16-20 in.
(406-508mm) to achieve a smooth, flat transition.
NOTE: Make sure that enough joint compound is applied around
the flush mount kit to make a very gradual transition from the
surface to the edge of the flush mount kit.
