Back Can Installation

WARNING: This procedure requires the use of personal protection equipment, such as safety glasses and gloves.

WARNING: To avoid potential damage to your loudspeaker, ensure that the power amplifier is switched OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting any cables.

WARNING: Make sure that there are no power lines, other cables, or plumbing such as water, sewer, gas lines in the chosen location.

The Back Can S is an optional back can that can be used for the PCI and QCI 6DC/8DC in-ceiling loudspeakers.

The procedure below describes the installation of the back can into a typical 2" x 6" ceiling with 16" centers, with dry-wall/plasterboard not yet installed.

After the back can and dry wall is installed, the PCI and OC 6DC/SDC ceiling loudspeakers can be wired and installed, and the paint mask added during wall painting and finishing.

Procedure

Follow the procedure steps below in the order in which they are presented. Read all the instructions before starting.

1. Locate a suitable mounting position for the loudspeaker that will offer optimum acoustic performance for the listening environment and audio system, and that is also practical and aesthetically pleasing.
2. Carefully move the back can to the chosen location between the ceiling joists, and lift it to the desired height, allowing enough room for the speaker wire to enter the cable gland (Fig. 1).
3. Make sure that the back can is plumb and level, then attach the back can to the ceiling joists using 5 screws or nails per stud.

Fig. 1 Install the Back Can between the joists

Wiring the Back Can

WARNING: To avoid potential damage to your loudspeaker, ensure that the amplifier is switched OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting any cables.

The speaker wire connections are made to the cable entry gland into the back can. A loop is provided to secure the cable before it enters the cable gland.

1. Loop the speaker wire once around the provided cable loop, and pass the cable through the cable gland and into the back can (Fig. 2) and past the acoustic foam inside the back can. Love enough slack to make the connections when that time comes. Tighten the cable gland, and tie down the speaker cable to prevent it moving and rattling in operation. Make sure that the speaker cable does not come into contact with nails or screws that might damage the electrical insulation.
2. Once the speaker cable has been brought through the gland, and the gland tightened, fire-retardant sealing mastic should be used to seal the assembly.

Optional Pre-Mount Kit Installation

The optional Pre-Mount Kits provide a circular surround for a strong mounting surface for the damping mechanism of the loudspeaker, and they make it easier to install the drywall.

The PMK RRs can be used with or without the back can.

Preparing the PMK Pre-Mount Kit

1. Each pre-mount slit consists of two mounting brackets, a circular frame, and four small clips that help secure the brackets to the frame.

2. Attach the mounting brackets to the frame (Fig. 3).

3. Press the four clips in place, to hold the brackets in position.

Quick Star Guide

Installing the PMK into the Back Can

The following procedure shows how to connect a PMK 6 to the back can. The procedure is the same for the PMK 8. The PMK 3 is not used with the back can.

1. Hold the PMK 6 or PMK 8 assembly onto the back can, with the circular lip of the frame pointing into the room (Fig. 5).
2. Make sure the PMR assembly is centered, plumb, and level. Secure it to the back can with four screws, using the existing holes at the top and bottom of the back can (Fig. 6).
3. When the drywall is fitted over the back can, a generous bead of fire-retardant sealing mastic should be applied to the back can flanges in order to seal the assembly and minimise the possibility of vibration when the speaker is in use.

Fig. 7 Apply a generous amount of fire-retardant sealing mastic over the back can flange area as shown.

Installing the PMK without the Back Can

1. Assemble the PMK with the mounting brackets attached to the PMK frame (See Fig. 4 on page 11).
2. Hold the PMK assembly onto the joists, with the circular lip of the frame pointing into the room.
3. Make sure the PMK assembly is centered, plumb, and level. Secure it to the joists using four woodstrews.
4. Run speaker wire to this location (Fig. 8). Leave enough slack to make the connections when that time comes. Tie down the speaker cable to prevent it moving and rattling in operation. Make sure that the speaker cable does not come into contact with nails or screws that might damage the electrical insulation.

Installing the Drywall

1. The installation of drywall around the PMK location is best arranged so there are no drywall joins near the PMK (Fig. 9).
2. If you want to cut the drywall aperture before installation, use the PMK aperture as a guide. Step 5 below describes cutting after the installation. Use whichever method you prefer.
3. Use adhesive on the wall studs and the front face of the back can (if used), and install the drywall using drywall screws approximately 8 to 10 inches apart. This will help prevent wall rattling and drywall movement and noises during operation. If the loudspeaker is being installed on an interior wall, then adhesive and extra screws may also be added to the drywall used in the room behind the loudspeaker.
4. Note: Before adding any drywall screws where the metal back can is installed, drill small pilot holes into the metal of the back can.
5. After the drywall installation, carefully cut out the hole in the drywall with a suitable handtool, using the inside aperture of the PMK as a guide (Fig. 10 and 11). Be careful not to cut the speaker wires or cut into the back can acoustic foam. Make sure the drywall aperture is no larger than the inside aperture of the PMK frame. Remove any dust or debris from within the back can.
6. The PCI and QCI ceiling loudspeaker quick start guide includes the procedures for installing the loudspeakers into the wall apertures.

Cutout Procedure without the PMK

If you are using the back can, but not the PMR pre-mount kits, then follow this procedure below for cutting out the drywall.

Circular cutout templates are supplied with the loudspeakers, and act as a guide for cutting out the correctly sized hole in the wall (Fig. 12).

Follow the procedure steps below in the order in which they are presented. Read all the instructions before starting.

1. In the position of the back can, and the supplied template to the drywall, centered exactly on the center of the back can.
2. Using the template, carefully cut out a hole in the drywall using a suitable handtool. Be careful not to damage the back can, its acoustic foam, or the speaker wires. Remove any dust and debris from the hole.
3. The PCI and QCI ceiling loudspeaker quick start guides include the procedures for installing the loudspeakers into the aperture.
