IN-CEILING SPEAKER PLACEMENT (ZUR5.25IC / ZUR6.5IC / ZUR6.5IC DM)
These speakers are designed to operate in a standard drywall or suspended acoustical panel ceiling.
The speaker enclosure allows for different mounting depths that may be encountered in different ceiling
applications.
Although the speakers sound best when the back section of the speaker is left in tact.
The back section of the speaker can be removed to lessen the over all mounting height if needed.
Some building codes may require that the back enclosure half be removed so please check with your
local building codes.
When mounting to a drywall ceiling, be sure the drywall is at least 3/8” thick.
If you are mounting the speakers to typical acoustical suspended ceiling panels, you will need to
reinforce the acoustical panel with ½” plywood to ensure the speaker does not cause the acoustical
panel to sag over time.
1.
Choose mounting locations that are equal distance left and right of the listening area as shown
in

.
2.
Use the speaker cut-out template supplied to mark your hole locations.
(Be sure there is clearance behind the area you have chosen for the speaker. Avoid electrical wiring,
plumbing, moving parts, air ducts and Fire Stops.
