4. It is recommended to place insulation behind the speaker to provide some damping for the woofer
driver. This will yield the best possible sound. On-Q recommends using poly-encapsulated insulation
such as Johns Manville Comfort Therm®. If a defined, consistent sound is desired from both
speakers in a space, blocking can be installed to yield the ideal cubic footage for each driver.
Insulation would then be put in this space during speaker installation. Refer to blocking chart for
details.
5. If installing speakers in a space with an attic above it is recommended that the speakers be boxed in
with 1/2 inch MDF (medium density fiber board) or plywood with insulation installed. This will provide
a defined acoustic space and protect the speaker. The best possible sound will be achieved by doing
this. Refer to the blocking chart for details.
Note: Make sure you are in compliance with local building codes before installing this speaker in
an attic space.
B. "Trim-out" steps:
1. After drywall and/or painting is complete, push the speaker wire through hole, center template over
hole, mark with a pencil and cut out with a dry-wall knife.
2. Hold the speaker with one hand, (if speaker grill is off, pay careful attention not to push on the woofer's
cone, this can cause permanent contortion of the voice coil, thus producing a mechanical rubbing sound
or speaker failure), push in the speaker terminal connectors and insert wires; remove speaker grill. Be
sure to have the positive wire in the RED terminal and the negative wire in the BLACK terminal.
