Introduction
The PSP6 Speaker Precision Panel provides a clean and easy way to
connect in-wall wire runs from up to six pairs of speakers (twelve
speakers total) to a system’s amplifier(s).
The PSP6 features six pairs of gold-plated binding posts that
accommodate up to 12 AWG speaker wire, banana plugs, pins, and
spade lugs on both front and rear of the panel.
The PSP6 is one of ELAN’s 1/2 frame Precision Panels. Two 1/2
frame panels can be mounted in one PF2 Precision Panel Frame,
giving the flexibility to mix and match Precision Panels needed to
complete a neat, problem-free trim-out.
The PSP6 is perfect when installing Z•660 six-channel power
amplifiers!

Installation
PF2 Precision Panel Frame
The PF2 accommodates any two 1/2 frame Precision Panels.
The kit includes a full-size Precision Panel frame, an insert with pre-
drilled holes for the mounting of two 1/2 frame Precision Panels,
mounting screws, and a blank 1/2 frame plate to cover an unused
half of the frame. PBKT6P new-construction brackets are available,
or the PF2 can easily be retro-fitted using the four clamping legs
attached to the frame, which clamp the panel securely to drywall.
Note: The PF2 is required for the installation of all 1/2 frame
Precision Panels.
Mounting the PSP6 to the PF2
Each 1/2 frame Precision Panel mounts from the back of the PF2.
Use four included screws inserted from the front of the PF2 as
shown below.

Trim-Out
All system wire runs are pulled through the PF2 frame. Lay the PSP6
front panel (attached to the PF2) on the floor in front of the frame
and make all connections. Dress the wires in neat bundles and then
carefully place the PSP6/PF2 back into the frame and secure using
the four included screws.
