In-Ceiling
Speaker
Placement
Designed
to

in
any
drywall
or
drop
ceiling,
Klipsch
in-ceiling
speakers

engineered
for
years
of
performance.
Minimum
construction

drywall
or
other
mounting
surfaces

be
at
least
3/8"
thick.
In
drop
ceiling
installations,
typical"drop
in"
2'
x
4'
and
2'
x
2'
ceiling
tiles
are
composed
of
low
density
materials
which
have
the
potential
over
time
to
sag
and
vibrate
audibly.

maximize
the
acoustic
performance
of
your
in-ceiling
speakers,
Klipsch
recommends
you
replace
the
original
mounting
panel
.
with
1/2"

plywood
or

density
fiberboard
(MDF)
(see
