Invisa Signature Point Source Manual

Installation Instructions

Installation of your new Invisa

® 

 Signature Point Source speakers requires use of tools such as a drill, screwdriver, saws 

and possibly other power tools. The installer should have knowledge of all applicable building and/or fire codes. Care 

must be taken to ensure the area behind the wall or ceiling where you plan to install the speakers is clear of obstruc-

tions. When cutting the hole in and running wires through walls and/or ceilings proper care must be taken to avoid 
electrical, water, gas and/or HVAC pipes and the corresponding risks to your safety and risk of damage to property.

If you are not comfortable with the above and/or performing the following installation procedures we strongly  
suggest having a professional contractor install your speakers (see your GoldenEar  Dealer).

  
Tools Required:
 
 

•  Pencil

 

•  Drywall saw, Keyhole saw, utility knife or other material-appropriate cutting tool for wall material

 

•  Phillips Head Screwdriver

 

•  Power drill with appropriate bit (optional, for starting wall cut)

Installation Into Existing Walls or Ceilings 

 

For new construction (pre-drywall), use our custom rough-in brackets, sold separately.

NOTE: You must first install appropriate gauge and type speaker  
wires. For best sound quality, the use of high quality speaker cable  
is essential.

 

1.  Make sure the wall material can support the weight of 

 

 

the speakers you plan to install (see specifications 

 

 

page for weights).

 
 

2.  Make sure the location selected is free of studs, electrical 

  wiring, water or gas pipes, etc. Prior to installing, hold the 
  speaker in your selected location to make sure it is clear 
  of any obstacles. PLEASE NOTE: Your cutout must be at 
 

 

least 2" (50mm) from adjoining walls/ceiling, internal 

 

 

studs, and any pipes. 

 

3.  Place the included mounting template onto the wall or 

  ceiling in your preferred location. Use the pencil 
 

 

to trace around the template (Figure 1). 

 

4.  Carefully cut a hole with the appropriate cutting tool 

 

 

along the pencil trace as follows: Start the hole by 

 

 

drilling a hole inside of the pencil line (place drill bit just 

 

 

inside the line). Use this hole to insert the cutting tool 

 

 

and begin cutting — be careful not to cut outside the 

 

 

template line! (Figure 2).

Use only cable that is rated for in-wall use  
(UL Standard CL2, CL3 and CM, CSA standard FT4).
