SSE™ UB2T

Mounting Instructions:

As a helpful guide to assembling the bracket onto the cabinet for hanging the cabinet on a wall, the following assembly steps are one example of the steps you might take to prepare the bracket and attach the cabinet to a drywall-covered 2x4 stud wall, after consulting with a certified structural engineer.

Remove the bracket from the cabinet by unscrewing the shallow-head bolt from the nominal bottom of the cabinet (small side), noting how the bracket is mated with the slot in the cabinet and saving all the hardware supplied.

Now is a good time to set the input selector to the proper input. Select one of the transformer taps, or the 8 ohm input, since it would otherwise require that the cabinet be dis-mounted from the bracket to change the setting.

Decide where the unit will hang and in which orientation (See Figures A and B). Note that the supplied bracket can have the mounting bolt go through the rear of the bracket or the end opposite of the cabinet slot, so there are two options to allow maximum flexibility in mounting to the ceiling or the wall. With the help of a certified structural engineer, find a wall, ceiling stud or other suitable location and select which hole on the bracket will best interface with that spot. Both mounting

holes can be used in a corner for maximum safety and reliability.

Locate the mounting hole on the selected spot by placing the bracket against the ceiling/wall in the desired pre-selected location. Mark this location by lightly driving a small nail into the wall surface through the correct bracket hole (centered) and then removing the nail. Pre-drill the fastener hole with the proper size drill bit to allow the fastener shaft to enter the stud without splitting it, but not so large as to allow the threads to strip out. Next install the bracket onto the ceiling/wall in the orientation selected, being sure to install it using the appropriate fastener (nominally a 1/4” x 3” lag bolt) into an inner wall or ceiling stud. Never drive a lag bolt into just drywall or just paneling as this will not hold the cabinet safely. Consult a certified structural engineer for all mounting details.

The wall fastener will go through the appropriate bracket hole with a lock washer between it and the bracket. Tighten down this fastener making sure the bracket is oriented as desired. Once the bracket is in place and the fastener has been tightened firmly, connect the cabinet input terminals to the speaker wiring with the wires routed as desired. Place the cabinet onto the bracket in its factory configuration and insert and tighten the shallow-head bracket mounting bolt removed in the first step.

This is just one example of the steps that one might take to install the SSE UB2T by mounting it on a wall or ceiling. Other types of walls/ceilings other than a dry-wall panel and 2x4 stud construction may require different fasteners and steps to safely hang the SSE UB2T. Consult a certified structural engineer to assure that the SSE UB2T will be properly and safely hung under the specific conditions present.

Note that the SSE UB2T is intended to be used with a separate woofer, an electronic crossover and two channels of amplification to provide full-range performance. The SSE UB2T is not a full-range system by itself, and only covers the range from approximately 200 Hz and up. A number of suitable crossover options are available from Peavey: the Peavey Digitool™, the Peavey VSX™ 26 Loudspeaker Controller and the SSE™ Array Controller. The first two units have pre-configured setup files that provide an optimized crossover and EQ for a flat response and level set as a starting place for any permanent installation.

The woofers in the SSE line that mate well with the SSE UB2T are the SSE 210 and the SSE 110. One SSE 110 can provide bass for up to two SSE UB2T cabinets.
