PREPARATION
Before you begin...
Thank you for choosing Bose
®
Virtually Invisible
®
791
speakers for in-ceiling installation. These top-of-the-line
Virtually Invisible
®
speakers provide superior perfor-
mance for stereo and home theater enjoyment. Their
slim profile blends well into your room, so only the
sound...not the speakers...stands out.
Please be sure to read this guide carefully before you do
any cutting. There are many factors to consider before
proceeding with this type of installation.
Unpacking
Carefully unpack the speakers. Check to be sure the
carton includes all the parts shown.
If any part of the speaker pair appears damaged, do
not use it. Notify Bose or your authorized Bose dealer
immediately. For Bose contact information, refer to
the address list included in the carton.
Note: With the speakers unpacked, you can find the serial
numbers on the back of each one. Then you can copy the
numbers onto your warranty card and in the “For your records”
space on page ii.
Other equipment you will need
Hardware for securing the speaker to your ceiling is
attached to the speaker. In addition, you need a ladder
and the equipment below to make the installation go
smoothly.
If painting is in your plan
Be sure to read “Painting the exterior parts” on page 11
before you begin installing your speakers. There are a
number of suggestions on how to protect the speakers
and spread the paint evenly on the speakers before you
secure them in your ceiling.
