Welcom e to Bowers & Wilkins and th e CCM6 Series
Thank you for choosing Bowers & Wilkins. When John Bowers first established our company he did
so in the belief that imaginative design, innovative engineering and advanced technology were keys
that could unlock the enjoyment of audio in the home. His belief is one that we continue to share and it
inspires every product we design.
The CCM6 Series of ceiling mount speakers is designed to offer easy installation and high quality
audio reproduction for discrete custom install applications. This manual describes the installation of
CCM6 Series speakers within conventional stud and sheetrock (joist and plasterboard) ceilings. It
begins by listing the contents of the CCM6 series carton.

Environmental Information
All Bowers & Wilkins products are
designed to comply with international
directives on the Restriction of Hazardous
Substances (RoHS) in electrical and electronic
equipment and the disposal of Waste Electrical
and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). These symbols
indicate compliance and that the products must be
appropriately recycled or processed in accordance
with these directives. Consult your local waste disposal
authority for guidance.
CCM6 Series ceiling mount speakers comprise a
bafe carrying the speaker drivers and crossover,
a mounting frame (with integrated bezel), and a
magnetically secured grille. The frame is connected
via side mounted terminals to the speaker cables, with
the bafe connecting automatically as it is inserted in
the frame.
Note: A square grille is optionally available for
CCM6 Series speakers. Contact your local
Bowers & Wilkins retailer for more information.

All CCM6 Series speakers require clear depth behind
the sheetrock (plasterboard) of 140mm (5.51 in). The
diagrams above illustrate these dimensions.
Note: If CCM6 Series speakers are to be installed
in “new build” projects, pre-mount kits and back
boxes are available. Contact your local Bowers &
Wilkins retailer for more information.
Before installing CCM6 Series speakers you should
ensure that the ceiling locations chosen are free of
obstructions such as pipe work, ducting or wiring that
will interfere with the installation. In existing dry-wall
construction, use a stud-nding tool to help you map
the ceiling construction and a pipe detector to scan the
proposed installation locations.
