NEW CONSTRUCTION BRACKET INSTALLATION

Whether positioning your Impression satellite speakers or the subwoofer ceiling port, the New Construction 

Bracket (ES-IM4-BRKT-IC, not included) can simplify the process. These brackets make finish installation easier by 

reserving the exact space and size needed for the speaker during the framing stage of home construction. During 

the drywall process, the cutout can be precisely made around the bracket flange.

Important: 

For help determining the bracket location, see the respective speaker installation instructions below.

To install the new construction bracket:
1. 

Locate the area where the speaker will be placed in the ceiling. Keep in mind that the area should be free 

from electrical wires, HVAC, and plumbing. 

2. 

Connect the wings (or edge plate,  

if needed) to the bracket.

3. 

Position the bracket between two  

joists and secure each bracket  

wing or edge plate with  

two screws, nails, or staples.
