CAUTION: In-Ceiling Installation 

Be sure that the ceiling material has a good integrity and is of a 

material and thickness to support the weight and vibrations of the 

speaker installation.

 

 

 
NEW CONSTRUCTION INSTALLATION 

 

The preferred method for new construction installation is using Xantech’s new-construction brackets. 
The brackets provide an installation process that protects the high-value speaker system. The bracket 
material is heavy-duty ABS plastic. Wings can be assembled to the frame in several locations, thus 
allowing the speaker system to be installed in almost any position.  

 
1)  The speaker bracket installation takes place after wiring and wall box placement has been 

completed. The speaker brackets are to be installed before the dry-wall process. The dry-wall 
contractors can accurately cut out the speaker holes using the installed speaker brackets as a 
reference.   

 
2)  After the dry-wall process is complete, the painting process is next. The bezel frame from the 

speaker system can be installed using the speaker bracket as a mounting point. There are two 
mounting points to fasten the bezel frame to the bracket. Remove the bezel from the speaker 
frame by locating and removing the shipping screws (silver) on the rear of the system. The 
dog-ears screws also have to be removed. With the bezel frame installed into the speaker 
bracket, paint can now be applied to the wall and speaker bezel.
