The SC-IW consists of two cabinets — the “driver module” and the “back box.” (a.k.a. the “Enclosure”). Unlike other in-wall products where a back box may be optional, the SC-IW requires both enclosures, unaltered, for every installation. In new construction situations, the back box is in installed first (for example, at the framing or rough out stage), and the driver module is installed later in the trim out stage. In retrofit situations both boxes are typically installed together.

The driver module assembly is shown below. It uses a unique bracing system in that the driver acts as the "internal bracing structure" for the speaker enclosure.

The in-wall back box contains internal bracing to minimize cabinet flex and wall vibration.

The driver module and the back box are connected through two rubber conduits, sealed with

supplied hose clamps. This linking system provides the installer the flexibility to either install the

two boxes together in the wall or separately prior to installation.
