Installing the Speaker into the Ceiling
Grid The dimensions of the MCQ
speaker are 2’ x 2’ and is designed
to lie onto any standard suspended
ceiling tile grid.
a) If the ceiling tile that was removed
is 2’ x 4’, it needs to be cut in
half to accommodate the MCQ
speaker. If the ceiling tile that was
removed is 2’ x 2’, no cutting of
the tile is necessary, skip to Step 3.
b) Set the ceiling tile on a flat work
surface with the patterned side
facing down.
c) Using a straight edge, cut the 2’
x 4’ ceiling in half (see figure 2)
leaving two 2’ x 2’ sections.
d) Locate the 2’ ceiling grid t-bar
attachment. Locate the attachment
slots in the existing ceiling grid
and snap the new t-bar into place
to crate two 2’ x 2’ openings (see
figure 3).

into the desired 2’ x 2’ opening in
the ceiling.

wire and the eye screw. The safety
wire needs to be permanently
attached to the solid structural
ceiling above.

anchors if necessary) into the
structural ceiling.
e) Loop one end of the safety wire
through the eye screw (or anchor),
then twist it around itself at least
five times.
f) Pull one of the tabs up on the
