8) Choosing the Materials

The following below describes which type of joint compound

should be used when mudding the speakers into the wall.

–

Joint taping compound is stronger than topping

compounds, and should be used for the first coat to

minimize the chances of cracking.

–

Topping compound is easier to work to a smooth finish

and will form a lighter coating with less SPL (sound

volume) dampening.

–

All-purpose compound can be used but is not as strong as

a finishing compound due to its poor level of finish.

Pre-mixed and Setting Compounds

–

Pre-mixed provides a convenient form for both taping and

topping compounds.

–

Setting compounds have the potential to speed up the

installation with multiple coats in one day.

Tapes

–

Paper or fiberglass tapes should be used in accordance

with the manufacturers instructions.

IMPORTANT! Savant recommends using minimal taping

compound over the sound board of the speaker. The

strength and density of the tape decreases the SPL

(sound volume) of the speaker.

9) First coat and tape

Apply a thin coat of high quality primer to the speaker

surface and area around the cut-out.

2. Fill in any gaps between the speaker and drywall edge

with drywall compound.

3. Apply tape over the seams. See Figure 13.

4. Spread the drywall compound over the tape in a manner

that requires minimal sanding. See Figure 14.

5. Skim drywall compound over mounting screw heads.

6. Apply a thin coat over the sound board of the speaker to

create a flat surface with the surrounding drywall.
