Installation: Chairs & Couches
NOTE: If your chair or couch cannot accommodate a Transducer, consider
purchasing or constructing a platform (see "Platforms" on Page 8).
As a general rule, most chairs and couches have an underlying wooden
frame. The Transducer can be mounted directly to a frame member or to a hard
wood bridge (see diagram) that is rigidly secured to the chair's/couch's base. The bridge
should be at least 3/4" thick and cut to span two frame members or connect two sides
of a box frame. The more centrally located the frame member or bridge is on
the overall structure, the better the distribution of tactile sound.
CAUTION: When used in recliners, make sure that the Transducer and its
wire do not interfere with the recliner's mechanical elements. Also, a
minimum clearance from floor to mounting surface for these types of installs is
4-1/2 inches for the Unimount Bracket and 3-1/2 inches for the T-Nut.
Steps for installation using the Unimount Bracket
1. Attach the Unimount Bracket to the mounting surface using machine
screws with flat washers and lock washers.
2. Screw a Threaded Stud into the threaded insert on the Unimount
Bracket.
3.
Spin the two Jam Nuts onto the stud. You will tighten them later.
4.
Screw the Transducer onto the Stud until slight resistance is felt
(approx. 5 or 6 turns). When resistance is felt, stop turning.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE TRANSDUCER!
5.
Tighten one Jam Nut against the threaded insert of the Unimount
Bracket.
6.
Tighten the other Jam Nut against the Transducer's brass nut using two
9/16" wrenches as follows: One wrench firmly grasping the Transducer's brass
nut while the second tightens the Jam Nut against it.
•
NEVER TIGHTEN BY TURNING THE TRANSDUCER – MAKE SURE TO
TIGHTEN THE JAM NUT AGAINST THE TRANSDUCER'S BRASS NUT.
7. Use solder or wire nuts to connect the necessary length of speaker
wire to the Transducer's wire leads.
8. Run the speaker wire to your audio system.
9. Connect the Transducer to your audio system (see "Wiring and Connections"
later in this guide).
Steps for installation using the T-Nut Method
1. Drill a 7/16" hole in the mounting surface, being careful not to drill through existing
springs, padding, strapping, etc. Press the T-nut into the hole on the side
of the mounting surface opposite the Transducer (see diagram).
2. Screw a Threaded Stud completely into the T-Nut.
3.
Place the 3/8" flat washer and 3/8" lock washer on the Threaded Stud, then
spin the two Jam Nuts onto the stud (flat washer against the mounting surface, lock
washer between flat washer and jam nut). You will tighten the jam nuts later.
4.
Screw the Transducer onto the Stud until slight resistance is felt
(approx. 5 or 6 turns). When resistance is felt, stop turning.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE TRANSDUCER!
5.
Tighten one Jam Nut against the lock washer, flat washer, and mounting surface.
6.
Follow steps 6 through 9 under "Steps for installation using the Unimount Bracket"
(as shown above).

Hardwood Bridge (min. 3/4" thick)
Transducer mounts on hardwood bridge attached to chair
frame, or to a centrally-located frame member, if present.

Installation: Traditional Floors & Platforms
Installation Type: Hanger Bolt
TRADITIONAL FLOORS
If you want to use Transducers under the floor to supplement a music
system, then you should seek an evenly distributed effect. Transducers
may be mounted under a floor by attaching a bridge connected between
adjacent floor joists.
If your goal is to activate the area of the floor directly beneath a chair,
then attach the Transducer to the closest joist underneath the chair.
Note: Carpeting and padding may reduce the tactile effect.
PLATFORMS
Recommendation: Clark Synthesis recommends using only TST429-Platinum
Transducers for platforms. Use of (1) TST429-Platinum for every 4 ft. by 8 ft.
section of platform is suggested.
Platforms are a great alternative to mounting a Transducer directly to a
chair. This method is especially practical in home theaters with multiple rows
of seating where back rows are elevated on a riser. An activated platform
will deliver tactile sensations to your feet as well as the rest of your
body via the chair.
Whether constructing a new platform or fitting Transducers onto an existing
platform, it is best to space the Transducers equidistant from each other and the
edges of the platform. If using only one Transducer, locate it in the
center of the platform.
To minimize energy loss into the floor, use Isolation Feet between the
platform and the floor (see Page 2).
NOTE: Clark Synthesis does not recommend using MDF
(medium-density fiberboard) in a platform.
Steps for installation using the Hanger Bolt
1. Drill a 5/16" hole in the wood mounting surface
and screw in the pointed end of the Hanger Bolt
until it is secure.
2. Spin one Jam Nut onto the Hanger Bolt approximately 1".
3. Screw the Transducer onto the Hanger Bolt until slight resis-
tance is felt (approx. 5 or 6 turns). When slight resistance is
felt, stop turning.

4. Tighten the Jam Nut against the Transducer's
brass nut using two 9/16" wrenches as follows: One
wrench firmly grasping the Transducer's brass fastener
while the second tightens the Jam Nut against it.

NEVER TIGHTEN BY TURNING THE TRANSDUCER
– MAKE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE JAM NUT
AGAINST THE TRANSDUCER'S BRASS NUT.
5. Use solder or wire nuts to connect
speaker wire to the Transducer's wire leads.
6. Run the speaker wire to your audio system.
7. Connect the Transducer to your audio system (see
"Wiring and Connections" later in this guide).

vertical space is limited, cut a curved or

(adhesive and screws).
CAUTION: Do not cut curves in existing joists.

Constructing a platform for optimum Transducer Performance
Use 2" x 8" outside joists and 2" x 6" inside joists. The 2" difference in joist
height suspends the center of that platform above the actual floor, improving
distribution of the tactile vibrations. Use interior-grade plywood for the platform
surface. We highly recommend using adhesive and screws instead of
nails. Loose fitting joints can cause unwanted vibrations or buzzing noises,
particularly between the joists and the platform surface. Shown is a 4'x4'
platform, but you can make any size as long as the joists are spaced 24" or
16" on center to provide sufficient rigidity for tactile wave transmission.
