INSTALLATION 

The V-1015B Pendant Speaker is designed to be 
suspended from a ceiling using the enclosed chain.  
The chain is not attached to the ring at the top of the 
speaker to prevent damage to the speaker's finish 
during shipping.  To install the chain, open the link on 
the end of the chain and loop the link through the ring 
located on the top of the speaker and close the link.  
Make sure the chain is securely fastened to the ceiling. 

NOTE:  An additional 6 feet length of chain is 
available. Order Part Number V-1093-BK.

 

The area covered by a pendant speaker is determined 
by the suspended height of the speaker.
