INSTALLATION IN-WALL, IN-CEILING PLACEMENT Out of the box and into the wall, that's how easy it is to install Polk Audio in-wall and in-ceiling loudspeakers. If you intend to do the installation yourself we recommend that you possess some skill in the proper use of hand and power tools. You should have a thorough understanding of local building and fire codes and a familiarity with the area behind the wall or ceiling into which you plan to install your speakers. Proper installation of in-wall or in-ceiling speakers requires that you run your speaker wires before the install begins. Wire meeting appropriate building and fire codes must be used (and this is your responsibility, of course). If you are in doubt that you possess the necessary skills or tools, consult your Polk Audio dealer, or a professional installer.

Prior to installation, hold the speaker in your chosen location to make sure it safely clears obstacles such as studs, corners, beams, lighting fixtures and door/ window frames. Your cutout must be at least 1" from adjoining walls or ceiling, internal studs or plumbing. You can do this by holding the template in your preferred location and tracing within it or around it. Carefully cut the hole with the appropriate cutting tool for your wall or ceiling material. start the hole by drilling a hole on the inside of the tracing (with the drill bit touching the line). Use this hole to insert the saw or knife and begin cutting [Figure 7]. Once you have cut the hole, fish your previously positioned wiring out of the hole and connect the speaker.
