1 The tile rails prevent the speakers from falling if the tile itself comes out or falls apart, as their ends catch onto the T-grid
2 Be sure that the tiles can support the speaker. Smaller sized tiles or fiberglass-type tiles cannot support the weight of the
speakers. When this is the case, the speakers will need additional support
