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 Revel 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
1. Ensure that the drywall, plywood or other ceiling material is 1/2 in – 1
in (13mm – 25mm) thick and capable of withstanding the weight of
the speaker being installed.
Make sure to allow at least 1-1/2 in (38mm) between the edge of the
mounting opening 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,
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 cutout.
4. Connect the speaker to the amplifier as explained in Connecting to
the Amplifier, on page 4. Use the nylon cable-strain relief tab, located
next to the speaker terminals, to help prevent the speaker wire from
being accidentally disconnected.
5. Attach the speaker's seismic tab to a support line, as per local safety
regulations.
