  1. Choose the location where you want to install the speaker. Ensure that there is enough space and no obstructions behind the ceiling.
  2. Place the provided installation template on the ceiling and trace the outline with a pencil.
  3. Using a drywall saw or a multi-tool, carefully cut out the hole following the traced outline.
  4. Remove any debris and clean the edges of the hole if necessary.

3. Connecting the Speaker

  1. Strip the ends of your speaker wire, exposing about 1/2 inch of bare wire.
  2. Insert the stripped ends of the speaker wire into the corresponding terminals on the back of the speaker. Make sure to connect the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals correctly.
  3. Gently push the speaker into the hole in the ceiling. The dogleg clamps will automatically engage and secure the speaker in place.
  4. Tighten the four screws on the front of the speaker using a Phillips screwdriver. This will further secure the speaker and ensure a tight fit.
  5. Attach the magnetic grille to the speaker. The grille should snap into place easily.

5. Troubleshooting Tips
