INSTALLATION OPTIONS
•For new construction applications, we highly recommend using the AccuTune box. For installation, follow the direc- tions included with the unit.
•For retrofit installation, simply cut out the drywall using the template included. Then mount the woofer assembly into the cutout hole. AcoustaCell is also available and is recommended for retrofit installations.
SYSTEM DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
•In new construction, we highly recommend using the Accutune box that matches your subwoofer. It has been designed to acoustically compliment the subwoofer and eliminate the acoustic problems caused by drywall, by providing a solid enclosure to which the subwoofer will be attached. Please contact your authorized SpeakerCraft dealer for further infor- mation.
•The Subwoofer should be mounted low on the wall, free from obstructions. The lower you mount it, the louder the bass will be.
•For retrofit applications every practical effort should be made to eliminate possible noise on or inside the wall surrounding this subwoofer. Steps must be taken to ensure that the wall and anything attached to the wall, in which the Cinema Sub is mounted, is secure. We recommend not hanging anything directly over the Cinema Sub. If there is no way around it, steps will need to be taken to ensure that pictures, mirrors, shelves, etc. do not vibrate on the wall. The use of rubber grommets, adhesive tape, extra mounting screws, or foam padding will help in these types of applications.
•In addition to our AcoustaCell system (part # ASMX3101) we recommend using acoustical spray foam instead of insulation in the bays that surround the Cinema Sub. The foam will be able to get into all those small gaps and will absorb most of the vibration from the subwoofer. If foam is not available, stuff the wall with as much insulation as possible. Using adhesive foam strips between the stud and drywall is also an option that could be used to help keep the drywall from vibrating on the studs. In addition, extra drywall screws can be used to secure the drywall to the studs.
