NOTE

SPEAKER LOADING VOLUME

There are two simple approaches to achieve a sealed ‘enclosure’ to provide the correct driver loading area behind the speaker. The chosen
method will depend on whether the wall is under construction, as in a new building project, or an existing wall where access is limited.

Option 1

Stud partition walls under construction, with 102mm by 51mm (4 by 2 inch) timber at 406mm (16 inch) centres.

Block off the cavity, above and below the intended speaker opening, with the same framing timber. The distance that these two internal
barriers should be separated by is shown below in 

Fig 1.

If the stud centres are greater than 16” apart then insert two timbers vertically between the blocking timbers to create the desired loading
volume. 

See Fig 2.

Option 2

Existing timber stud partition, or any other wall type with constructed with a 406mm (4 inch) cavity depth.

Many professional installers use a ‘doughnut’ of compliant material, which can be inserted as a tight fit between the two surfaces
of the partition or into the wall cavity. The length of the internal surface of the strip of material determines the ‘enclosure’ volume.
Cutting the strip to the length shown below and joining to form a ring will ensure the correct volumes.
