Important words of caution

WARNING: Installation shall be in accordance with the applicable section of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, and/or the National Fire Alarm Code, ANSI/NFPA 72, as applicable. The wiring method and compartment shall be such as not to interfere with the operation of the speaker.

CAUTION: Consult local building codes before you get started with this installation.

Please read this owner’s guide completely before you start. Then carefully consider your experience with using the tools and taking the precautions referred to here.

CAUTION: Failure to follow the instructions in this owner’s guide voids all warranties on your speakers.

If you have doubts about doing this installation, you should contact either the dealer you purchased the product from, an electrician, or a professional audio/video installer. You can describe the job and request a cost estimate before committing to installation service.

Small check marks call your attention to the tools you’ll need for the next step.

Tips offer ideas to make the job go easier and help you avoid mistakes.

Use these instructions with wood frame or similar construction only

Each speaker requires 8 1/16 inches (20.5 cm) of horizontal space, and 14 inches (35.6 cm) of vertical space inside the wall or ceiling, plus a minimum of 4 1/8 inches (10.5 cm) of depth from the face of wallboard that is a maximum of 1 inch (2.5 cm) thick.

Bose recommends installing these speakers only in wood frame or similar construction where there is enough space between studs, as is found in 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 wall/ceiling construction. The instructions in this guide are specific to that type of installation only.

Note: These speakers are not designed for installation in masonry walls or ceilings.
