Rough-In Kit for 6.5" Ceiling Speakers

This pair of rough-in brackets prepares ceiling cavities for 6.5-inch in-ceiling speakers during new construction or renovation. The kit includes two mounting ring brackets and four perforated anti-rust aluminum wings. It is designed to work with Earthquake Sound Turn-N-Lock speaker installation mechanisms. Professional installers can secure the wings with staples, nails or screws directly to ceiling joists.

Ideal for New-Build Audio Projects

Suited for builders and integrators running speaker wire before drywall goes up, ensuring precise speaker placement and a clean finish. The 360-degree ring rotation allows flexible positioning within the joist bay. Not intended for retrofit installations where ceiling access is limited or for mounting speakers larger than 6.5 inches. Buyers needing a kit for 8-inch models should select the corresponding version.

Quick Mounting With Trimable Wings

Installation is straightforward: extend the aluminum wings to span the joists, trim excess length, and fasten with common hardware. The perforated wings resist rust and accept staples, nails or screws for a secure hold. The ring bracket then locks into place for the speaker module. Common issues include over-trimming wings shorter than the joist span or misaligning the ring before drywall cuts are made.

Questions about this item

What speaker size does the 6.5-inch rough-in kit accommodate?

The kit is built for 6.5-inch ceiling speakers and includes two mounting ring brackets with four perforated anti-rust aluminum wings that can be trimmed and fastened to joists.

Will the ring brackets work with Earthquake Turn-N-Lock speakers I already own?

Yes, the brackets are compatible with all Earthquake Turn-N-Lock ceiling speaker installation mechanisms, so existing Turn-N-Lock models mount directly into the rings.

How do I verify the brackets are positioned correctly before the drywall goes up?

The ring bracket provides 360 degrees of rotation for versatile placement, and the extended wings make the rough-in location easy for the drywall installer to find and cut around.
