AudioSource In-Ceiling Speaker System Benutzerhandbuch

Gather the necessary tools for your installation. 

You will need the following tools:

1) A Keyhole or Drywall Saw

2) A Phillips Screwdriver

3) Masking Tape

4) A Pencil

5) A Bubble or Laser Level

6) A Tape Measure

7) A Stud Finder (recommended)

8) Your AC6CD speaker

Plan your speaker placement carefully. Make certain 

that electrical, plumbing and any other services will not 

interfere within the ceiling where you plan to place your 

speakers. The AC6CD speaker can be mounted in the 

walls or in the ceiling, but are typically used in ceilings. 

The speaker should be located so that it provides even 

coverage at your listening position. Caution should be 

taken not to place the speaker less than 1 foot from a 

bounding surface, such as a wall or corner to prevent 

uneven reflections of the audio signal. (See Fig. 1)

In most modern buildings the ceiling joists are positioned 

on 16” centers, providing a space between the joists of 

approximately 14

3/8

”. The AC6CD speaker requires a 

mounting hole 7“ in diameter. Additionally, you should 

allow an extra 

3/4

” clearance in all directions behind the 

ceiling surface to allow room for the doglegs that retain 

the frame to the ceiling surface to swing into position. 

Use a stud finder to locate the joists behind the ceiling 

surface. Also, you should now check for obstructions like 

cross bracing in front of and behind the desired speaker 

location.
