INSTALLING THE BRACKET
1.
Attach the QuickSnap™ new-construction wings to the bracket by snapping them
into the bracket sides. If the length will interfere with corner or eaves, you can
shorten the wings by breaking them along the scored lines.
N
OTE: THE WINGS AND BRACKETS HAVE CENTERING LINES TO SIMPLIFY PLACEMENT
OF THE SPEAKERS.
2. Screw one side of the assembled bracket with wings to the joist, using one of the
supplied screws. Level the bracket, and then screw the other side of the bracket/wing
assembly to the joist. Two screws on each side make for a very secure installation.
3. Secure the wire to the bracket using bracket’s wire tie. The drywall installers will cut
the drywall to the exact size of the bracket, as shown in
Figure 14
.
CONCEALING SPEAKER WIRE FOR A FUTURE INSTALLATION
1. Attach the speaker wire in a loop between the ceiling joists and carefully mark the
exact location of the wire on a set of plans.
2. Ask the general contractor to inform the drywall installers that the speaker wire loops
are concealed for future installations, as shown in
Figure 15
.
