You must use a back box behind each Stealth speaker to obtain the specified bass response. Stealth offers accessory
back boxes (BX, MBX, MBA and MBC models) which provide proper enclosure volume and "loading". Back boxes also offer
added sound isolation and MBX and MBA models are plenum rated.

BACK BOXES
A basic back box can easily be
achieved by adding on center framing
above and below the speaker opening
in the stud bay and then filling the
area with insulation before installing
the speaker.
Wooden BX boxes are ideal for
both new construction and when
retrofitting Stealth speakers into
existing walls or ceilings where there
are no plenum requirements.
The BX enclosure helps with sound
isolation and speaker performance.
Metal MBX back boxes should be
used when a UL rated enclosure is
required behind speakers and also
to reduce sound transfer to adjacent
spaces.
MBX back boxes can be used with
metal studs and hat channel, as well
as standard wooden framing.
The versatile, UL listed MBA metal
back boxes offer the same features as
MBX back boxes but can be adjusted
to accommodate narrow framing.
MBA back boxes can be used with
metal studs and hat channel, as well
as standard wooden framing.
MBC back boxes are designed
primarily for use in masonr y or
hat channel installations where
no suitable framing is available to
support the speaker perimeter. The
metal shell protects the speaker while
the wooden interior provides a secure
perimeter anchor.
