Choosing the Speaker Location
Before you install your speakers you should
take careful consideration their location. Make
sure to note location of lighting fixtures,
electrical, plumbing and any other obstructions.
If the house was pre-wired at construction time,
make sure you know where the speaker cable
is located in the wall or ceiling.
Wall Placement: When placing your speakers
into the wall, if possible, they should be
mounted facing toward the listening area.
Take in consideration where the furniture is
located when finalizing where the speaker will
be installed. Remember that with this type of
"built-in" architectural speaker, once the hole is
cut for the speaker installation, it is very costly
to move the location.
Preparation before Speaker Installation
If your home was pre-wired for speakers at
construction time, you might have used
TruAudio rough-in kits (RC series) prior to
drywall at each speaker location. (There should
also be speaker cable at this location). After
the drywall is installed and the hole is cut, the
speaker is then easily installed. Once the hole
is cut in the drywall, the pre-wired speaker
cable should be somewhere in the wall/ ceiling
near the hole. If you did use rough-in speaker
rings, move on to "Speaker Installation".
If the speaker hole has not been cut from the
drywall please read the following instructions:
If the house is at the point of actual "Speaker
installation", speaker cable should already be
run to each speaker location even if the hole is
not cut.
