SW10WM IN-WALL INSTALLATION

Placing The Template

SW10WM IN-WALL INSTALLATION

The SW10WM subwoofer mounts parallel within the room’s standard 2 X 4 stud construction. The included cardboard template matches the dimensions of the SW10WM and is used to position the subwoofer.

Be sure to mount the SW10WM securely, as the bass output could cause unwanted vibration if the SW10WM is able to move. Be sure the studs to which the SW10WM is mounted are securely braced so that the distance between them does not change and they are not able to move or shift. Always consult local building codes before installation.

Installing the SW10WM will require cutting pieces of drywall. If you are not comfortable or experienced with precision drywall, we recommend consulting a professional contractor or custom installation professional. If the subwoofer grilles are to be painted to match the new ceiling or color, they must be painted before the unit is installed.

The SW10WM subwoofer comes conveniently packaged in two separate installation packages. The ﬁrst package is for pre- construction which contains all the necessary components to install the cabinet located inside the wall. These parts include the cabinet itself, installation brackets, rubber isolating feet and an installation template.

The second package is to be used in the ﬁnal Trim out phase. This package includes the driver/bafﬂe assembly, frame and grille.
