IMPORTANT: SECURING THE LOUDSPEAKER ASSEMBLY TO THE BUILDING STRUCTURE
The backcan MUST be secured to the building structure by qualified personnel in accordance with safe installation
practices. Use suspension materials, connection fixturing, and methods that are appropriate for the building structure and installation conditions. Employ a minimum 5:1 safety factor for each suspension point, or higher if required
by code. For MTC-300BB8 with a Control 328C/CT, a 5:1 safety factor requires that each suspension point be rated
to support a minimum of 57 kg (125 lbs).
