Easy Installation

The DS8.3 and DS8.5 employ a bracket- less mounting system in existing ceilings. Simply cut a hole in the mounting surface, install the frame by tightening the four mounting “dogs” via the front panel screws. The dogs first swivel 90°, then clamp the loudspeakers frame to the dry- wall as you tighten the screws.

Twist & LockTM Baffle

Patented, (U.S. patent number 6,683,963). two-piece twist and lock baffle frame mechanism facilitates quick installations. Moreover, it allows trouble-free upgrades or repairs.

Hole Saving Bracket

Available as an optional accessory, DS8 Series New Construction Brackets can be installed as a “hole-saver” before the dry- wall goes up. The drywall contractor cuts the holes as the drywall is installed, reduc- ing installation time and minimizing the chance for lost wires.
