Instruction Manual

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 JBL 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 1" (25.4mm) 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.

NOTE: For 6ICDT, you must connect both left and right speaker wire from

the ampliﬁer.

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

regulations.
