Frequently Asked Questions
Installing in-wall speakers can be a rewarding project if you're handy. Here are the top-line steps to guide you through the process:
- Choose the location: Select where you want to install your speakers. You can either use an existing stud wall or framing, or build out from the existing wall to create the required space for the speakers.
- Use the cutout template: Most in-wall speakers come with a cutout template. Use this to mark the area on the wall where you'll cut.
- Cut the opening: Carefully cut along the marked lines to create the opening for the speaker.
- Run the wiring: Run speaker wire from your audio source to the cutout location.
- Install the speaker: Connect the speaker to the wiring and secure it in place according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Finish Up: Once installed, you can paint or finish the wall around the speaker for a seamless look.
If you’re unsure about any part of the installation, it's best to consult a professional. Hiring a trusted expert can ensure your speakers are installed correctly and maximise your sound experience.

Cons:
