Installation: New Construction (unfinished ceilings)
1.
Once you’ve selected the desired location for the speaker, begin by installing the iCB6 or iCB8 mounting bracket between adjacent
ceiling joists. First attach the mounting wings to the bracket by inserting them into the locking plastic tabs in the side of the bracket
(fig.1)
.
2.
The wings feature progressively elongated sections (1”, 1”, 2”, 2”, 2”, 3”, 3”) with screw holes spaced in one inch increments. The
iCB6 and iCB8 have NHT logos on one side, this side should be oriented away from the drywall. Attach the wings to the joists with the
5 x 50mm flathead screws or staples. For maximum stability, use two screws for each wing. Bend back the extra portion of the wing at
one of the pre stamped “break” lines
(fig.2)
.
3.
Complete the pre wiring before the drywall goes up (
see “Tech Tips: Pre-Wiring for New Construction”
). Leave an extra few feet of
speaker wire, and tie it to the the mounting bracket.
