Installation Fundamentals

In traditional wood stud/drywall construc- tion you can cut the hole for the speaker and utilize the large hole to auger holes across, up or down the wall for as far as your drill bit will take you. If you have matching paint and take reasonable care in patching you can cut a hatch in the drywall at each stud, run your wire, and patch and touch-up the wall (See Figure 7).

When you are dealing with the unknown because of the structure of your home, or with difficult to patch wall materials like plaster, lath and plaster, faux finishes, wall- paper etc., be patient. A careful study of the potential problems before you start the job will pay off.
