MOUNTING THE SPEAKERS

For New Construction

If you wish to pre-install a rough-in frame for the speakers before the

drywall is installed in new construction, you will need to purchase

the correct rough-in frame kit for your loudspeaker model from your

authorized Revel dealer. Detailed mounting instructions are supplied

with the rough-in kit. After the drywall is installed, follow the

installation instructions in For Existing Construction, below.

For Existing Construction

Note: The installation procedure is the same for all models

covered by this manual.

1. Ensure that the drywall, plywood or other ceiling material is 1/2" –

2" (13mm – 51mm) thick and capable of withstanding the weight of

the speaker being installed.

Make sure to allow at least 3/4" (19mm) between the edge of the

supplied installation template and any rafters or other obstructions

behind the wall, so the speaker’s locking mechanism will have room to

engage fully. Perform an obstruction survey to be sure that there are

no studs, lengths of conduit, pipes, heating ducts or air returns in the

ceiling cavity that will interfere with the speaker.

2. Determine the correct speaker location and use the template included

with the speaker to mark the ceiling material.

3. Cut the ceiling drywall along the mark you made in Step 2 to create

the mounting opening.

4. Connect the speaker to the ampliﬁer as explained in Connecting to the

Ampliﬁer, on page 4.

5. Attach the speaker's seismic tab to a support line, as per local safety

regulations.
