As a seasoned AV installer with years of home theater projects under my belt, I recommend installing speakers first to protect your displays from drywall dust. Measure from the wall to determine the horizontal positions of the outermost speakers, then measure down from the ceiling for the ideal height.
Use the templates provided with your speakers to trace the outlines on the wall at the precise locations (image 1). Carefully cut out the shapes using a drywall saw (image 2).
Connect the speaker wires first. Slide each speaker into its opening and secure it with the built-in tabs. Once positioned, reattach the front grille for a clean finish.
Position your TVs, then use a rotary tool to smooth away any excess drywall around the monitors.
Add small infrared emitters to enable control of all your TVs using a single remote control.
Fit the frames around the upper monitors and secure them firmly in place.
Slide the rear panel of the plasma display into the opening against the rear bumpers. Tap the barrel studs with a hammer to mark the frame, drill holes at each mark, then reinstall the back plate and tap in the bolts. Add screws around the edges for extra stability.
Attach the bracket to the back plate, connect all cables, and slide the plasma display into position.
