Using a sabre saw, keyhole saw or very sharp utility knife, cut hole in ceiling. Following trace
pattern.
STEP 3
Run loudspeaker wire to sound source location. There are several methods you can use to
accomplish wiring, depending on the construction characteristics of the room or house. You
can add a professional touch to your installation by using a speaker terminal plate at the
source location. Leave sufficient amount of wire at speaker location (8-10 inches / 20-25 cm)
to complete connection.

frame up into cutout. Be careful not pinch wires in the process.

After the speaker panel is secured tightly, test sound. When you are satisfied the speaker is
operational, then affix grill. As grill is designed for a snug fit you’ll need to position one edge
