Installation
The cut-out is 257 mm in diameter and the mounting depth is 140 mm. Fitting in a single stage is the standard method; a two-stage method is optional, in which the wiring and the space for the speaker are prepared before construction and the job ends when the speaker module snaps into place. TRUFIG finishing and installation is a further option: a repeatable procedure that gives precise alignment and a smooth result, flush with the surrounding surface.
Finishes and grilles
The VX82R has a Micro Trim grille in satin Brilliant White. Within the Visual Experience series the grille styles are Trimless, Micro Trim and a Trimless version mounted with TRUFIG.
