To use the MR-1/MR-CVR as a speaker locator:

Screw or nail the MR-1 onto a stud or rafter where you want the speaker to go.

Attach the speaker wire to the MR-1 with a tie-wrap. (Picture 2)

Cut a rectangular (standard single-gang) hole in the sheetrock when it is installed. (Picture 3)

If the speaker is not going to be installed right away, install the MR-CVR coverplate to make the ceiling look nice in the meantime. (A blank rectangular coverplate would be used in an in-wall location.) (Picture 4)

When ready to install the speaker, bend the MR-1 back into the wall/ceiling. (There is a scored line on the bracket and it is designed to be bent this way.) (Picture 5)

Cut the hole for the speaker. The speaker hole should be cut as far away from the stud as possible, while still including all of the original cutout. This will leave room for the "dog ears" of the speaker to grab hold of the sheetrock. (Picture 6)

Reach through the hole and break the MR-1 bracket, pulling it out through the hole.
Attach the speaker in the normal manner! (Picture 7)

Our Low Voltage 'Cut In' Brackets are the perfect solution for quick, easy sheetrock, tile, or stucko mounting of one- or two-gang low-voltage wallplates. Built-in marking holes and straight edges make installation a snap!

Here's the fast installation choice where only low voltage is required. Designed to fit a standard on or two-gang faceplate, these low voltage brackets feature an easy nail-on mounting or screw-in bracket, while a hard shell provides increased durability.

Resi-Rings accept 3 /4'", 1" and 1 1/4" Resi-Guard only.

Our Low Voltage Brackets are open-backed to easily accommodate the bend radiuses required for low voltage cabling and deep devices such as volume controls, while molded-in ports make it easy to connect flexible raceway for future-proofing. You can use them to tie off cable to the bracket. They can also be attached to wood or steel studs.

Pro-Wire low voltage mounting rings are ideal for mounting a wide variety of low voltage devices. Fill unused positions with a blank Decora strap , then cover with standard Decora wallplates for an ultra-clean installation.

Our Low Voltage Adjustable Brackets are the perfect solution for tile, paneling, or stucco. A bracket allows for quick, easy stud mounting, and a turn of the screw adjusts to any wall thickness. It's great for retrofit/installation upgrades. Replace the single-gang bracket with a two-gang bracket, or switch services to a high-voltage Adjust-A-Box™.

Our Low Voltage Adjustable Brackets simplify installation with tile, paneling, or stucco to save you time and effort. Just use the quick-mount bracket to clip it to the stud (1), add a screw for extra support if you want it (2), then use the adjustment screw to accommodate wall thickness (3). Also available in a two-gang version.
