Installation of
Brackets, Frames
and Grilles in New
Construction
Stage One: Before Drywall is Hung.
Insulating the Wall Cavity.
If feasible, fill the wall cavity with insula-
tion at this point.
Attach the wings to the bracket by snap-
ping them into the sides of the bracket.
The wings can be shortened by breaking
them along the scored lines if their length
will interfere with a corner or eaves. You
can mount the bracket horizontally or ver-
tically (See Figure 8).
Screw one side of the assembled bracket
with wings to the stud using one of the
supplied screws. Level the bracket. Screw
the other side of the bracket to the stud.
Two or three screws (depending upon the
size of the model) on each side makes for
a very secure installation. Attach the wire
to the bracket at the indicated wire tie
points (See Figure 9).
Stage Two: Before Paint
Screw the frame to the installed bracket
using the supplied screws. Do not over-
tighten the screws. This will distort the
frame and the grilles will not fit (this is not
permanent, just loosen the screws and the
grille will pop in) (See Figure 10).
Painting the Aluminum Grilles
The grille is important to the sound of the
AT loudspeakers. Do not fill the holes of
