  • Page 12 NOTE: Retrofit Back Boxes are available for all in-ceiling Motion series speakers. These back boxes reduce sound from “leaking” into the area above where the speaker is installed. For example, if building a home theater downstairs and there are living spaces directly above where the speakers are installed it may be desirable to use these back boxes to help contain the sound so it does not cause any disturbance to those above the speakers.

    Painting the Speaker Grille IMPORTANT! Before painting remove grille from speakers. Do not paint the surface of the speaker behind the grille. Do not use a paint roller. Remove the grille from the speaker. Paint the grille, being careful not to plug the holes. For best results use a spray rather than a brush.
