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 

 

The thickness of the mounting surface is between 0.95cm and 3.2cm 

(0.375" and 1.25

There is at least a space of 7.5 cm (2.9") 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 an Opening

ceiling tile. To do so: 

1.  Remove the rectangle in the supplied template and tape it to the wall in the 

correct location.
