Mount temporary holders to joists
3
Firmly secure the bracket to the speaker
6
Remove the temporary holders from the joists
7
Double check that the face of the speaker
is plumb with joist
8
Strip an insert wires into terminals
9
Place the speaker on top of the temporary holders
4

Cut a couple of 2 x 4s or 1 x 2s, a
few inches wider than the ceiling
joists. Then with a couple of drywall
screws, mount the temporary holders
to the joists. (Drywall screws not
included).
Note: The SA63-7 is
pictured in steps 2,4,7.
Procedures for SA63-4
and SA63-8 are
identical.
Expand the bracket to fit from joist to joist (Fig. 8). Then fix to the joists using a drywall
screw (Fig. 9). Make certain the bracket is flush with the joists (Fig. 10). (Drywall screws
not included).
These will help you hold
the speaker up and make
the speaker mount flush
to the future drywall.
Tighten screws enough
to securely fix the bracket
to the speaker enclosure.
Be careful not to strip the
threads on the brackets
(Fig. 11).
You can adjust the side-
to-side position of the
speaker by sliding the
bracket before tightening.
Remove drywall screws
and remove the temporary
holders (Fig. 12).
Adjust if needed (loosen
the bracket slightly and
adjust the speaker’s
position up or down or as
required (Fig. 13).
Minimum 18-gauge wire,
heavier gauges for longer
wire runs.
