tain that there are no studs, plumbing or electrical conduit in the 
intended area behind the wall before you begin marking and cut-
ting!

2.  Trace the outer perimeter of the cutout guide with a pencil or a 

utility knife. 

3.  Remove the traced section of the wall using a keyhole saw, and 

clear debris from the edge of the hole.

4. Push any insulation to the side.
5.  Disassemble bezel/Uni-Grip™ and place the supplied Allen head 

screws to the side. Place the bezel in the wall cutout and insert 
the Uni-Grip clamping bar through the opening at an angle, work-
ing on one side first. Reinstall the Allen head screws with the 
supplied 3/32” drill bit, securing both pieces to each other (sand-
wiching the wall between them), but do not tighten yet. Repeat on 
the other side. 

6. Using a level, adjust assembly in wall cutout to ensure that the 

assembly is plumb. Tighten the Allen screws. Do not over torque 
or strip these screws. The large clamping area of the Uni-Grip 
system does not require unusually high torque on the screws to be 
secure. 

7.  Paint the bezel and grill as necessary, being careful not to plug 

up the holes in the grille. Note that the speaker modules are not 
mounted in the bezel and grille assembly at this time. They can 
be mounted later, after all the paint is dry.

8. Using assistance to hold the speaker modules away from the wall, 

connect all five speaker wires (planar magnetic section, plus four 
woofer section speaker cables) to the connectors at the ends of 
the back boxes, paying attention to assign the correct band-pass 
and polarity to their respective speaker connectors.

Important Note: 

The Wisdom Audio C150i is a biamplified speaker that requires five 
sets of speaker wire to each location. One pair of connections is 
for the planar magnetic module, whereas the woofer module uses 
four sets of connections, one each for four sets of four woofers. The 
Wisdom Audio SA-1 system amplifier is designed to provide two 
identical outputs for the woofer sections of a given woofer column; 
you will need two SA-1 amplifiers, for a total of 2000 watts of power 
for the bass. 
 
All connections are made at the bottom end of the enclosures.

9.  Insert the speaker/back box assembly into the Uni-Grip frame and 

attach using the supplied Allen head screws and 3/32” drill bit. 
Do not over torque or strip these screws.
