Introduction
The new Super-Slim speaker has been specifically developed for applications where cavity depth is restricted. At only 50mm (2”) deep, it’s able to be
fitted neatly into spaces where all other speakers would be prohibitive. Installation in construction featuring 2” studs or where pipework, cabling and AC
ducts restrict the mounting, can be specified with confidence.
CSS-230 features sealed back box integrated into the speaker. CP enables a ‘controlled performance’ wherever it is installed and is not reliant on the
specification or acoustic properties of the wall cavity or building materials. Some types of installations also require sound isolation to reduce acoustic
transmission between rooms, particularly in the case of residential apartments. Whilst a major benefit, the small back box has restricted air volume
restricting bass output in applications where full range sound is required. As a solution, we have designed a hybrid system comprising all the benefits of
CP, together with the flexibility of an open back design. A rubber plug can be removed easily to convert the speaker to perform as an open back design.
The unit is protected against ingress of particles and building materials by a fine gauze
Prior to Fitting the Super Slim In Ceiling Series Speakers
CAUTION: These Custom Install loudspeakers can only be fixed into plasterboard (dry-lined) or suspended ceilings/ walls with a thickness of up
to 15mm (9/16”). Solid wall installation will require channelling out and frame work constructed to provide a structure for the Tri-Grip® dog legs
to clamp to. For safety reasons, if you are unsure of your ability to provide a secure and safe fixing, do not attempt to fix these speakers, please
obtain the services of a competent and qualified trades person.
CAUTION:
Ensure that there are no water pipes or electricity cables running within the wall structure before cutting the speaker apertures. Work
from secure steps and avoid trailing wires.
Over Tightening Warning
Attention installers:
Do not over-tighten the Tri-Grip Dog Leg clamps. Over tightening the
clamping mechanism on any in ceiling/ in wall speaker can result in damage
to the speaker mounting hardware, ceiling/ wall or speaker frame, and/ or
deflection in the speaker frame during installation.
If you notice any of the above during installation, you have over tightened the
Tri-Grip dog leg. Back off the mounting screw until deflection is reduced to
allow the product to sit firmly against the ceiling / wall.
Do not exceed 5Kgf/cm (4.34 lbf/inch.) or 0.5 NM when tightening
the Tri-Grip dog leg screws.
NOTE: When are using a cordless screwdriver/ drill to install this
product we recommend using it to just start off the process, then
tighten it up by hand to avoid over-tightening and damaging the
mounting hardware.
Painting the Grilles
NOTE:
If choosing to paint the grille, we recommend you follow these simple steps:
1. Remove the membrane scrim from the inside of the grille.
2. Paint all grilles required for the installation with the same batch of paint (if they are to be the same colour). Spray paint is easier to apply or use a
stippling action when brushing to avoid blocking the holes of the grille.
3. When dry, attach the spare membrane scrim (supplied) into the inside of the grille.
4. Fit the grille to the speaker (s).
