Preparing the Gypsum Mounting Platform
Before Installing the Platform with SUB1
The SUB1 is shipped with the subwoofer cabinet (band-pass box) and port tube “Bass Snorkel”. The cabinet should be mounted to
the ceiling joists using the included L-Bracket screwed into the studs. The cabinet should not be allowed to rest on the ceiling surface
gypsum. Alternatively, the cabinet can be mounted using a crossmember or other suitable platform.
The speaker wires should be pre-wired to the cabinet location and connected once the SUB1 is installed in the ceiling joists.
The port tube should be connected to the SUB1 cabinet and must be connected to the Mounting Platform before closing up the
ceiling. No access to the port tube is possible once the ceiling has been finished.
After the ceiling is finished (mud and paint) the grille depth is adjusted, and the grille will be installed.

1. SUB1 Band-Pass Cabinet

Before Installing the Platform with ICS3
The ICS3-Backbox will need to be attached to the Mounting Platform and installed into the ceiling joists. For easiest installation into
the ceiling, the ICS3-Backbox should be screwed to the mounting platform and then the entire platform (gypsum board with mud
ring and paint shield plus the ICS3-Backbox) can be installed into the ceiling.
The speaker wires should be pre-wired to the ICS3 location and connected once the ICS3-Backbox is installed in the ceiling joists.
No access to the ICS3-Backbox is possible once the ceiling has been finished.
After the ceiling is finished (mud and paint) the grille depth is adjusted, and the ICS3-SPMD (Spiral Planar Magnetic Driver) and grille
will be installed.
ICS3 Components:
1. ICS3-Backbox (Mid-Woofer and Crossover)
2. Speaker Termination Binding Posts
3. Backbox to Mounting Platform Attachment
