Locate joist work
When you have chosen your speaker
locations, before cutting a hole in the
plasterboard it is important that you locate
the position of the joists/studs. Ensure the
spacing between them is at least 350mm
(13
3/4
”) for a portrait orientated speaker.
Important: If the space in between joists is
less than 350mm (13
3/4
”), consider using
the AIW350E/S200 loudspeaker which
only requires a 200mm (7
7/8
”) wide cavity.
Create 455mm x 350mm aperture
(455mmx205mm for S-200 Variants)
Using a sharp knife or pad saw, cut an
aperture with dimensions 455mm x
350mm (18” x 13
3/4”
) in your plasterboard
wall or ceiling.
Ensure aperture is created between
supporting joists or stud work.
We strongly advise that joists are not
cut to make space for the product. Any
activity of this sort may well influence the
structural integrity of your property.
Important: Double check the size of the
aperture is 455mm x 350mm (18” x 13
3/4
)
as this is important further on into the
installation process.
