5 Installing the Galil 4-C
This section explains how to install the Galil 4-C closed-back ceiling speakers,
that is:

Choosing the best place to locate your speakers (see Section
5.1
)

Cutting the ceiling tile (see Section
5.2
)

Mounting the speakers (see Section
5.3
)

Setting up an array installation (see Section
5.4
)

Painting the speakers (see Section
5.5
)
5.1 Choosing the Best Location
Ideally, locate the speakers above the main listening area. Before doing so, be
sure that:

The desired location is free of obstructions, such as electrical piping, AC
ducts or water lines, and so on

There is enough space behind the mounting surface for the speakers

The rear side of the speaker is not blocked by wall studs or other objects
5.2 Cutting the Ceiling Tile
To cut the ceiling tile, do the following:
1. Remove the circle in the supplied template.
Keep this template for later use as a mask, as you may want to paint the speakers (see
Section
5.5
)
2. Mark the opening in the correct location by tracing the hole in the template.
3. Cut out the hole according to the template or with a circular cutter set to the
appropriate cutout size.
Initially, you can cut a smaller area inside the marked hole just to be sure that the
space above the speakers is clear
