Subwoofer Installation

How to install 24 dual 15" subwoofers above a metal false ceiling.  (Call SeeHear!!) I designed the project, the methodology and performed all the fabrication.

Start of framework.

One side finished.

Squaring two sides of the framework for final welds.

Finished with the welding.

High density particle board installed and assembly painted.

Checking the fit.

Speaker cabinet propped vertical for trip into ceiling.

Speaker cabinet shown rotated horizontally for operation after installation above the ceiling.

Custom tower allows safe access to steel structure which is 10 feet above the edge of the opening in the false ceiling.

The maiden voyage of the tower into the ceiling.

The framework for attachment of the subwoofer framework to the building. Compression of springs allows tightening of all four allthread supports.

Subwoofer framework is hoisted onto custom platform to support it on the way into the ceiling.

Subwoofer framework guided onto platform.

Secured for launch!

Completed assembly approaches the opening.

Note that operating position of the subwoofer is too wide for ceiling opening.

Subwoofer rotated to clear ceiling opening.

In she goes.

Just a little bit further and we'll bolt it in.

When the light is on the presence of the subwoofer is masked.

With the light on.
