Description
Rough-in 8-inch ceiling speaker locations in new gypsum drywall construction before the ceiling is finished using the Valcom V-9912M-10, a single pack of galvanized metal pre-construction speaker support rings designed for 16-inch or 24-inch ceiling joist spacing.
The Telecom Spot Expert Review
Pre-construction speaker rings solve the new construction sequencing problem: speakers are installed after drywall is hung and finished, but the support hardware that holds the speaker in the ceiling needs to go in before the drywall is closed. The V-9912M-10 rings are installed during the framing and rough-in phase at each speaker location, creating a stable mounting point inside the drywall cavity that the speaker baffle locks into after the ceiling is finished. Galvanized metal construction inhibits rusting in the enclosed ceiling cavity — particularly important in humid climates and structures without full HVAC conditioning during the construction phase. The rings accommodate standard 16-inch and 24-inch joist spacing, covering the two stud spacing patterns used in virtually all commercial gypsum ceiling construction.
