Framing
Vertical mounting
Due to residential construction meth-
ods, vertical mounting of the cabinet is
recommended. The subwoofer cabinet
will t between 2 x 4 inch studs on 16
inch centers.
Horizontal mounting is also possible,
but needs additional framing steps. See
page 10 for horizontal mounting details.
Notes:
• Use the illustrations as a guide,
but follow all local building codes
regarding the actual framing meth-
ods.
• The insulation stuffed inside the
cabinet is required for proper oper-
ation. Do not remove the insulation
during the cabinet installation.
1. It is recommended that you add a
horizontal brace below the cabinet
to raise it above the height of the
nished oor and baseboard mold-
ing. This will prevent accidental nail
punctures in the cabinet.
2. Add a horizontal brace above the
subwoofer cabinet, leaving enough
room to make your speaker wire
connections to the push-terminals.
3. Add further horizontal braces at
either side of the cabinet, but
make sure that they are at different
heights to randomize wall reso-
nances.
4. Attach self-adhesive foam strips to
the cabinet wherever there will be
contact with the studs or sheetrock.
Use longer strips for the sides, and
shorter strips for the front face and
the shorter side resting against the
lower horizontal brace.
