• On the left of the face plate, the rear enclosure covers
the threaded standoffs of the SPA 12 (i.e., they are not
visible).
• On the right of the face plate, the rear enclosure
should line up with the pair of SPA 12 threaded
standoffs that emerge through the HSA 402 front
panel.
7. Tighten the lock nut and washer to the magnet cap bolt
that emerges from the rear enclosure.
8. Tighten #4-40 nuts to the SPA 12 threaded standoffs on the
right side (viewed from the back).
9. Attach the opposite end of the speaker wire to the output
of your amplifier.
Installation into a Cable Cubby
Each SPA 12 AAP includes a rear enclosure and a factory
installed magnet cap to secure it. These pieces enhance the quality
of sound, but are not required for use.
Some Cable Cubby and HSA mounting options are too small to
allow for these optional pieces, and some wall mount situations
may present an obstruction. In such instances, remove the
magnet cap and do not install the rear enclosure.
To remove the magnet cap
1. Unscrew the two ¼” lock washer nuts that hold the
magnet cap in place.
2. Gently pull the magnet cap from the speaker driver.
Although the SPA 12 AAP speaker works properly in free air
(without the rear enclosure and magnet cap), it is a good
practice to limit open space behind the SPA 12 AAP. Cover
large openings as much as possible to optimize the speaker’s
performance.
To install the SPA 12 AAP into an Extron Cable Cubby, do the
following. Several of the steps are summarized in figure 3 on
the following page.
1. Placing the L-brackets inside the cubby in the desired
position, use a Phillips head screwdriver to lightly secure
the L-brackets in place with the supplied screws.
Insert the SPA 12 AAP and check for fit. Once the speaker’s
threaded standoffs are fully aligned with the L-brackets,
tighten the screws through the holes in the cubby box.

2. Insert the SPA 12 AAP speaker and front grill into the
Cable Cubby opening, lining up the SPA 12 threaded
standoffs with those of the brackets installed in step 1.
3. From the bottom of the Cable Cubby, attach and tighten
#4-40 nuts to both pairs of threaded standoffs emerging
from the SPA 12 AAP brackets.
4. Attach the speaker wire pair ends to the SPA 12 AAP
speaker by soldering the exposed tips to the speaker’s
positive and negative terminal pair (marked – and +).
5. Attach the opposite end of the speaker wire to the output
of your amplifier.
Installation into architectural frames
The SPA 12 AAP can be installed in most Extron four-space AAP
architectural frames (e.g., the MLC 104 AAP) and in wall mount
faceplates (e.g., the AAP 102).
