Fix BackboxCV and insert insulation

Using 8 drywall screws (4 at each end) fix 
the BackboxCV by screwing through the 
plasterboard and self tapping into the 
backbox mounting lip      . When positioned 
correctly, the backbox’s speaker mounting lip 
with soft foam surface should be visible along 
all four sides of the aperture.

It is recommended to add sound absorbing 
mineral wool inside the surrounding cavities 
to further reduce sound transmission behind 
the speaker. (2” maximum thickness)

Locate cable and position BackboxCV

Pull the speaker cable through the rubber 
grommet in the top side of the BackboxCV 
and ensure speaker cables are pulled 
through with a manageable length available.
Doing this will make it easier to connect the 
cable to the speaker later on in the 
installation process.

Position the BackboxCV within the aperture 
so as to rest it against the back side of the 
plasterboard.

Use the fold out tabs at either end of the 
backboxCV to help support it in position 
before securing it to the plasterboard.

A 75mm/3" cavity depth is required to fit a 
BackboxCV.
