Pre Construction Bracket Install

The Artison Sound Surface 40 and Sound Surface 80 speakers are designed to be installed into a wall

or ceiling. Once installed, the face of the speaker is then sheetrock mudded so the complete speaker is

embedded into the wall and can't be seen. Installation of the speaker varies slightly depending on whether

the install is done during initial construction or retrofitted after the drywall is already hung. Both installations

are described below:

– For NEW CONSTRUCTION, follow the steps in section 1 -

construction bracket is installed, skip to section 4

– For RETROFIT INSTALLATIONS, skip section 1 and start with section 2 -

1) Pre-Construction Bracket Installation

A Sound Surface Pre-construction bracket (SURFACE-1PCB-00) is available for installs where the wall

board is not installed.

–

The pre-construction bracket is installed onto existing studs and will reserve an opening during the

rough stage so the drywall can be installed around it.

–

Pre-construction brackets (sold separately) are available for stud and joist openings that are either 12

or 16 inch on center.

–

With the use of the Pre-construction bracket, a smaller cavity can be used. The clearances required

for this installation are: (9

–

The pre-construction bracket can be used for installations that include either

drywall. With rubber spacers installed,

drywall can be used.

Follow instructions below to install Pre-construction bracket:

When

inch drywall is being installed, remove the

rubber spacers from the rear of the bracket.

When

inch wall board is being installed, leave the

rubber spacers intact.

HELPFUL! The face of the bracket should be slightly

inset from the edge of the drywall. This allows for

joint compound to be spread over bracket to cre-

ate a level surface.

2. Attach the bracket to the wall studs or ceiling

joists using the (5) pre-drilled countersunk holes

positioned along the outside edge of the bracket.

See Figure 1.

TIP! Use mounting screws (not provided) appropriate

for the stud or joist type: wood, metal, etc.

3. After bracket is installed, proceed to section 4 -

Attach

Handle. Skip the retrofit instructions on page
