Subwoofer Installation

Read the details on page 7 to help determine the best position for your subwoofer in the room.

The subwoofer can be wall mounted vertically, centered between vertical wall studs. This is the recommended (and easiest) orientation to install.

Horizontal mounting into existing construction will most likely mean cutting a vertical stud. This installation should be done by an experienced and qualified carpenter, to prevent weakening the wall structure. When the extra framing is done, the installation and wiring is the same as described below.

Tools required:

Phillips screwdriver

Pencil or other suitable wall marker

Sheetrock hand saw

Safety glasses

Level

Masking tape

Flashlight

Small mirror

Electronic stud finder if needed

You may need an assistant.

Preliminary steps:

If the TV display is in place nearby, it should be removed from the wall, or at least turned off and covered.

Marking and cutting the opening

1.Choose the best location for your subwoofer, preferably centered between vertical wall studs. Use a stud finder to find where the studs are.

Do not position the subwoofer closer than one inch from the cabi- net sides to a stud. This allows for the clamps to swing out.

2.Tape the supplied cutout template onto the wall surface, and use a level to make sure it is vertical.

3.Mark the sheetrock with a pencil around the inside of the template, and remove the template.

4.Turn off the electricity to the room, just in case you accidently cut a live AC mains wire.

Marking the opening onto the wall using the inside of the template

Clear the area where you are going to work, so it will be safe. Remove any fragile objects, small children or pets, and cover anything that might be affected by dust from cut- ting sheetrock.

Put on your safety glasses.

5.Drill a small pilot hole, and us- ing a flashlight and small mirror, look for any obstructions such as water pipes, gas lines, or electrical wires that may interfere with the subwoofer installation.

6.If all is clear, carefully cut out the sheetrock around the marked lines, and remove any debris from the hole.
