Bose Invisible Speakers Installation

By Izzy Khavinson

Bose is known for creating sleek home audio systems and this dedication to streamlined design shows when you prepare to set up a Bose Invisible System. Bose Invisible Speakers Installation seems very simple, compared to other home theaters systems but that what you need to know:

1.The very first thing to do is to measure the depth of your walls and ceiling. Do it before buying! The modern tools make it easy to cut holes in the ceiling or walls and check its depth.

2. Understand the concept of surround sound speakers. These speakers produce the small background noises that generate the feeling of being in the center of the action (surround sound). Proper placement of surround sound speakers is crucial to audio quality.

3. Determine the location to install your Bose Invisible Speakers. These speakers should be located in the rear half of the room, one on each side.

4. Obtain any additional accessories needed for surround sound speakers. Purchase any needed custom-designed wall brackets or floor stands, if needed. These may not be necessary in all cases.

5. Set the speakers in position in the designated location. Make sure you have enough wires to reach.

6. Bose manufactures a variety of products to reduce the number of parts and wires needed, including its Virtually Invisible Speakers. These speakers are designed to be mounted inside a wall or above ceiling and can be installed without special training.

Things you will need for installation:

2. Pencil

3. Keyhole saw

4. Speaker wire

5. Wire stripper

6. Wire clippers

7. Wire running kit

8. Electrical tape

9. Phillips-head screwdriver

Step by step installation:

1. Find the studs in the wall or ceiling with a stud finder and mark them with a pencil.

2. Determine the desired location of the speaker and mark it with a pencil. Most of the speaker body must fit in, so the optimal position for the speaker is at least 4 3/4 inches away from the studs.

3. Place the cutting template against the dedicated space at the point marked with pencil.

4. Trace the outline of the cutting template against the dedicated space with a pencil.

5. Insert a keyhole saw into the space in the center of the pencil tracing of the cutting template. Rotate the saw so it makes a small, circular hole.

6. Saw outward toward the outer edge of the tracing. Saw your way around the outline until it is fully cut out.

7. Insert a finger into the small, circular hole and pull out the cut portion.

8. Insert the keyhole saw and rotate it to make a small, circular hole.

9. Tape the end of a length of speaker wire to the end of a wire running kit with electrical tape.

10. Insert the tip of the wire running kit with the attached speaker wire into the hole and run it to the speaker location.

11. Pull the wire running kit through the speaker hole and pull the wire running kit back out through the small hole.

12. Strip the ends of the speaker wire with a wire stripper.

13. Attach the stripped ends of the speaker wire to the screw terminals on the side rear of a speaker with a Phillips-head screwdriver. Match the “+” and “-” terminals marked on the wire with their corresponding terminals.

14. Run the opposite end of the speaker wire to your stereo receiver. Cut the wire to the correct length with a wire clippers, strip the ends with a wire stripper and attach them to the binding posts at the back of the receiver.

15. Test the speaker by playing audio through your stereo receiver.

16. Insert the speaker into the whole and tighten the screws in the speaker face with a Phillips-head screwdriver to secure it in place.

That is all to it. Good luck.
